Re: XBOX Controller?
I use a wired one, works perfectly because I'm usually sitting up close next to my brother.

Re: XBOX Controller?
Wait, can I use a gamepad for the XBOX360? And is it good? I mean, is it comfortable to have in your hands? And are the buttons comfortable?

Re: XBOX Controller?
Yes it's pretty comfy. It doesn't feel cheap and plasticy is that's what you mean.

Re: XBOX Controller?
U don't even have to buy a another controller. I'm using my PS2 controller for CC. I'm using this gaming adapter called the "Uiversal USB Convertor" by Gamemon. I bought it for cheap at Wal-Mart for like $10 and its cool. U can even hook up ur PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube controllers in it, even has another 2 USB's on it. here's a review: http://savvygeek.com/2008/04/18/review- ... converter/here's the place to see it: http://www.chinagameware.com/display/ft ... rter.shtml

Re: XBOX Controller?
I searched google for a place where you could buy it near me, or in my country. There's this thing called a joybox, it's 20-40 dollars and it doesn't look very reliable. I'll say no to that and go get a wired XBOX360 controller or a gamepad.

The only gamepad you can use with the 360 is the official 360 controllers, or a gamepad made specifically for the 360. The ones some other people posted in here wouldn't work on both a 360 and PC.

Re: XBOX Controller?
Frankly I would prefer to keep using wired controllers until they worked out a way to have wireless controllers that don't need batteries. I'm tired of dying because my friend never keeps fresh or at least half full batteries in his controllers.

Most calcuators work with solar energy, why not a controller? While you're not playing it consumes solar energy and places it in a battery. The bad side = it's probably going to be an expensive controller then. But it's an idea.
