So my brother has a 360, we play Halo Reach on it sometimes. I'd like to get a controller as his friend comes over often and we sometimes alternate between playing.

I'd like to get a controller that works for the 360 and PC. There's this one Saitek Cyborg Controller. I have the Playstation compatible version of it, because they didn't have any Xbox versions at Best Buy when I went there. But I'd rather have a wireless controller.

So, there's the option of the Xbox 360 for WIndows controllers. I have my eyes on this one. Now, I have a few questions about this.

Will this work on the Xbox 360 as well as the PC?
Will this work with Xbox peripherals such as this and this?
Will I need anything else to get it working correctly?



None.

I'm pretty sure that normal wired xbox 360 controllers work. You can get that for like 25 bucks. I like those better because then you can also plug in your mic and talk to people if you don't have a real PC mic. :O

I'd still prefer it to be wireless though. Anything that ever has a wire for me seems to get its cord ripped out. :\ Could I get some answers to those questions?

As far as I know, that is just a bundle of an Xbox 360 controller and the USB wireless receiver (which I'm fairly sure you can also buy separately for something like $20). You can probably use more than one Xbox 360 controller at once with that (maybe up to 4).

I believe I read somewhere that you can't use normal Xbox 360 controllers with the reciever. So I'm guessing as similar as they are, they're not the same.

The information on the page you linked to, along with the posts on there, seems to indicate that it is a normal Xbox 360 controller and that the receiver works with other Xbox 360 controllers.

Alright, well if that's the case, then I'm guessing most of what I'd like to know are answered.

Oh_Man -- Hope that makes sense. Also artosiscast just dropped a 1 hour vid he analayses a bunch of its games. The TLDR is the maphack is responsible for a large percentage of its wins because its just hard countering zerg rushes

Vrael shouted: yeah but it looks like pluto's eAPM is still 6000 based on issuing all those orders
k the APM is inflated because it issues 12 identical orders individually. Its not 12 unique orders

Vrael -- which does reduce down to the same tradeoff I mentioned below, aka trading APM for time, but still interesting

Vrael -- and while the reaver was reloading it used that time to aggregate enough marine/tank to fend it off

Vrael -- like its micro vs one of the in-base reaver drops was pretty insane, basically it made the reaver spend 1 scarab per unit instead of 1 scarab for many workers/units

Vrael -- all the stuff I've said below is based on the actual gameplay vs some strong human performers, seems like the bot just has unfair advantages, but its also doing some cool stuff

I mean human brains trained the bot too, its not completely infeasible for the bot to actually be strong in certain scenarios
