ComputerHow - Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for PC

[MrNikusha999]

can i play pes 2012 with that?

[heybevis01]

thats awesome...please tell me more about how you broke your controller and not how to hook up the controller to pc...

[Recrem001]

can u buy the dongle separate because i already have a wireless controller?

[mastershizy]

xpadder is free and dude you talk too much

[barca97100]

thanks. very helpful video

[xOpticZzirGrizz7thst]

its only for windows

[MegaManNeo]

@xOpticZzirGrizz7thst As far as I know, the controller does work with Windows, Linux and the 360.

Sounds like good waste of money to me, maybe I can't use it on my PS3 (without an adapter at least) but it's good for games like PES which I use to play very often.

[117Turtle]

also how would you get a profile for you computer games to edit to work with the xbox 360 controller.

[117Turtle]

would an xbox controller that i use for xbox pick up the "dongo's" signal? cause if it can then i'd save about $40 bucks

[rmdloll]

Can I play battlefield 3 with it ?

[adsahar]

Only thing that keeps me off buying it is that STUPID dongle. Wtf, why can Logitech have these tiny adapters and M$ still using this crap dongle thing ?!

[kristian12349]

can you play counter strike with it?

[Jaakex3]

I'm using a "charge and play cable".. It makes connect/disconnect sounds, installed the drivers automatically, but xPadder and the game controllers window in control panel don't recognize it... hellp?

[rollexx]

@Jaakex3 I was looking that up too, supposedly it only charges it with the play&charge cable. You need an actual 3rd party wireless receiver (the thing he had) which is like20$

[Vermiurge]

Hehe... Dongle.

[kcarmelo1bls]

i played minecraft with the xbox controller :] :] :]

[Cracklin319]

So after I install it, I can play any game with the controller ?

[Joshgt2]

@Cracklin319 Yes, if the PC game has Xbox Controller support. IF IT DOESN'T, simply install Xpadder and remap the keys.

[cheezydude1996]

@Joshgt2 do you know where to buy that

[prewar1]

@Joshgt2 Do you have to buy Xpadder or is it a free download?

[Joshgt2]

@prewar1 It IS a paid program, unfortunately... However; simply put it is only $9.99 and allows you to continually use your Xbox 360 controller for whatever you want. About half of my games I use my controller over the keyboard and mouse simply because it has a better feel to it. Again, there ARE other options instead of Xpadder, but I find that it is the best for this type of situation.

[prewar1]

@Joshgt2 Would you say that it is worth buying?

[o0DeathStrike0o]

For my pee uhh cee

[MrMikeTheDude]

Dude,use Xpadder!

[Juscius321]

i hawe xbox and i hawe xbox controler special edition there is a battery and i wire and i can fill up batery while turning on xbox how could i use him to play games with xbox controler ? if u know or can help me plis help me

[plurbleman]

k nevermind my last comment...can i buy just the dongle at any stores? please reply

[Joshgt2]

@plurbleman I don't think you can buy just the dongle at stores, but I don't know if your area.... =\

[ZeeLegend]

@Joshgt2 Amazon search for "Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows"

[plurbleman]

hey, i have the same controller..but..will this work with my charge and play kit?

[MultiFledge]

Does this work for the original modern warfare on steam?

[AdrenAlineSKKE]

hey nice video! just wondering, can you buy this bundle in full black color without the gray features (analog sticks and such)? cause the ones just for xbox are pure black and im thinking of buying that, with the wireless receiver separately (also, would this combination work on a PC? it should but Im not sure)

[TheUnSolid]

If you've used the controller for xbox 360 slim, can you still use it for a PC ?

Cause my controller started the xbox lol...

[585lynch]

how did you play assassin creed wit that xbox controller cuz i cant

[adonis4441]

Cool!!!!

[CaptinMorggin]

Josh any chance you could post the model number of that particular controller. Cant seem to find one that has black face with the grey underside and grey buttons. The Best Buy UPC code would be great.

[Joshgt2]

@CaptinMorggin View my Google+ account right now. Link to that is in the Description of the video!!! You can get this controller for only $37!!

[CaptinMorggin]

@Joshgt2 Thanks Josh

[TheMrHDVideos]

Can I play Battlefield 3 with this?

[H4LO1000]

@TheMrHDVideos yes dude you can alredy tested for me works hope for you to

[cheezydude1996]

@joshgt2 where can i buy one with the dongo

[Joshgt2]

@cheezydude1996 Places like Newegg and Amazon sell these things.

[890masterj]

Is it possible to use that dongle on Elsword Online

[Drillfire414]

p ..uh.. c

[lukeyrob123]

Can you play bf3 with a controller on pc?? Please reply

[lolios123]

@Joshgt2 can you use this to play games like Devil May Cry 4?

[Joshgt2]

@lolios123 I'm pretty sure... If not then simply get something like JoyToKey or Xpadder and remap the controls.

[klondikebar48]

@Joshgt2 Can't you just buy the dongle and use your own wireless controllers? it would a lot more sense.

[RyoNoHikari]

yeah I had to buy the receiver separately because the controller didn't come with it.

[JeffreyDrama]

Will this work on a laptop?

[fargonbastedge]

OMG who cares just to get to the set up process already

[RonQE]

What kind of controller would you recommend for using the PC version of xbox games (for example, Halo 2 for PC)?

[yassi14ne]

when the batteries are low, do u have to buy new batteries or can u just recharg it?

[Joshgt2]

@yassi14ne Either or. Depends on what kind of batteries you put into the controller. I don't like rechargeable batteries. I feel they never last as long as they should.

[SnoweyMan111]

@Joshgt2 Woah. I thought you needed a play and charge kit, wow. There I go, assuming MS is moneyhungry whores. They still are, just not in this case I guess.

And that costed me 250SEK (~35$, this was when the dollar still had some strength though). Overpriced as hell.

[candycandy57]

@Joshgt2 I know right

[netcordhater]

Could you possibly give me a link for the xbox controller/dongle?

[SnoweyMan111]

@netcordhater amazon(dot)com/Microsoft-Xbox-­Wireless-Controller-Windows-pc­/dp/B000KA5T6A

That's the controller, installation disk and wireless receiver. I'd recommend you to search a site like price-runner or whatever you prefer to find the best price. Thought that one was quite good though. All of those kits are official Microsoft kits, so it's an original controller. Dunno if it's cheaper to buy controller and receiver separate, but it does work (can hook up to 4 ctrl's to a receiver)

[imnotdillon]

I have a charge kit to attach my wireless controller to my PC.. Will it work?

[SnoweyMan111]

@imnotdillon Sorry no, that only works with the Ps3 ones, the Xbox controllers don't send any data through the recharge cord. Wired controllers will always work.

[MrT14177]

Thanks for the video it was really helpfull for umderstanding

[souljahsection8]

Hey just some constructive feedback... you talk way too much and sometimes spend too much time talking about irrelevant stuff... like you spent 4 minutes talking about your old controllers... no one wants to hear about that. make your videos shorter and have more focus. The title was "Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for PC" so stick with that. As I said constructive feedback...

[bradsear]

Does any controller (Not necessarily xbox) work on MW2 in Steam?

[jakerabbets]

does it work for charge and play

[Pfizenmaier]

Nothing happens when I put this adapter in:

I'm using windows 7 64 bit Oo

[itsStottie]

@joshgt2 i have just bought the controller installed the software and i dont know how to actually play with it you you have to have Xpadder

[gandalfwiz20007]

does anyone know if i can use a regular pc gamepad on the xbox 360?

[itzmeErwin92]

Can I use this connector for an Microsoft Xbox 360 Sturing Wheel?

[ryan0935]

i got a tiny disc with myne were the fuk am i ment to put it help

[paperboyrips]

@ryan0935 Just put it in your cd drive. It should fit into a small depression in the middle.

[skywalkzGFX]

it also sees the usb as a unidentified device

[skywalkzGFX]

i plugged the dongle in, and it came up withying install unsuccessful.. can you help me please?

im on a windows 7 device.

[adamrocks2006]

PLEASE REPLY.

1) Does this work on widows 7?

2) can I buy a kit that just connects to the pc and doesn't use batteries .

thanks :)

[saufenniere]

@adamrocks2006

PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS

[pinksynth]

Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh dongle.

[TheTwinkeeBoi]

U can get one of the reciever things for like $12 on ebay

[SDKM4o]

had to wait 5:49 to actually get to what I needed to see. your a fucking dongle. Just explain how to use this crap we all know what an old xbox controller looked liked. We know, it sucked, thanks for reminding us. And fuckin madcatz, no one fucking cares about mad catz...its a poor kids kontroller. I hope

[firenlasor]

how to get xpader

[theandres771]

Dude, get to the point.

[Maxh0506]

can you also just browse with the controller

[codgamer45]

do i need xpadder to use the controller

[Timgo96]

i bought my xbox controller how can i play skyrim with it?

[gold333]

You didn't run the software from windows but chose auto install. Does the battery indicator show on your screen when you press the middle X logo button on the controller?

[Joshgt2]

@gold333 No, there is no battery indication for me. Unfortunately you simply have to guess.

[m0nj3]

@gold333 when the xbox360 controller light starts to flash and make circles it means you have less than half of the batteries

[IndianaTC]

I'm getting one of these for Sonic Generations PC.

[59biskut]

does it vibrate or not ???

[rafaelebelliard]

@59biskut it does vibrate. i bought the glossy wireless from amazon and have dozens of games working, like nfs the run and skyrim.

[KristoferLloyd]

can i use a wireless controller on non-steam games? such as MMO's or free to play FPS games, like combat arms or AVA?

[Sxxxysquirtle]

can i do this with a wireless controller and a usb charger?

[TheShak1911]

lmao what is the big thing.....all the a controller?!

lol

[851090211]

The reason why I'm thinking about getting one, is that I just got AC Revelations and I can't stand playing it with mouse and keyboard. Same with L.A. Noire and GTA IV. Games like MW3 and BF3 works better for me with mouse+keyboard but yeah, I'm definetly getting one.

Great review, thank you!

[AAA51458]

xbox controller not big

[MILFboySLIM123]

add me on steam so we can talk about it. name: GREEN WARRIOR

[diasvarghese]

i bought the same product and installed the cd which has all the driver software but still doesnt work.. any info?

[Boryspitzanzx]

no top comments lets keep it that way

[joshlyons93]

lol the old xbox controller was massive!!!!

[AWSOMEPERSON7000]

Dose the Xbox home button work?

[Brando2600]

@AWSOMEPERSON7000

A computer can pick up the signal yes.

[LeftNutProductionz]

lol....dongle ;)

[jeffyo07]

great vid, thanks for explaining and showing how it works. It's hard to find info on it. You CAN actually buy the dongle separately (albeit it is difficult to find, check ebay and stay away from the chinese sellers). I was a little worried to get a wireless controller for my pc, afraid of possible lag in games, but seeing how this works I will go ahead and get one. Thanks again, btw, you've got great lookings hands, George Kostanza hand model style hands. cheers

[tarangkhaitan]

i have controller but i play wid M+B lol

[hardminder]

I had to get a new Xbox 360 controller for my P eeee C  !!!

[ecartman12]

Well this work on windows XP?

[4Phenix]

Can You Get The Dongle Separate? Cause I Already Have 2 Wireless 360 Controllers And Thats All We Need

[Joshgt2]

@4Phenix I don't know about that. I've only ever seen them in a combo pack

[PolarooBearStudios]

@4Phenix You should Check EBay because i dont think you cant get the dongle seperate.

[TheDigital11]

@4Phenix you can



[Overawe88]

@4Phenix I just bought one on ebay for $12.00 Free sgipping with a one year warranty. in the ebay search bar type " xbox 360 wireless pc adapter " I'll have to wait a week for it to ship here, but it Beats spending $60.00 at best buy!

[4Phenix]

@Overawe88 I Have No Idea Why I Didnt Think Of Ebay In The First Place Thanks Alot :D

[iPhilYa23]

@4Phenix $22 on amazon.com

[TheNSPR]

wired = better respones =)

[exslim360]

where can i get a free configure thingy

[yourownaneurysm]

@Teh0gge no that won't work. It has to be a wired controller or you need to get the dongle which is in the video

[rhys8197]

can u use a charger to connect it to the pc ?

[MrHD9563]

where did you buy the dongle?

[Joshgt2]

@MrHD9563 My local Best Buy. It came in an all-in-one pack.

[asutuh]

@Joshgt2 *RAAAAAAGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEE* my bestbuy don't have one of those =(

[aznhoops2]

can u play split screen on the pc??

[Joshgt2]

@aznhoops2 Depends on the game? Some games allow for it, and some don't.

[MrFR0ST95]

@Joshgt2 is it possible for mw2?? or any FPS?

[TeronTheGorefiend]

Do I really need that dongle? I just bought a wireless 360 controller, so that i could play Sonic Generations, Skyrim and other games that support 360 controllers, but it doesn't respond.

[Joshgt2]

@TeronTheGorefiend If you bought it wireless, you MUST have the dongle. It has to connect to your system some how.

[TeronTheGorefiend]

@Joshgt2 thanks for answering!

[pacerbiy36]

@Joshgt2 Could you play Skyrim on the computer just like you would on the xbox? (using xbox controls)

[redogsal]

@pacerbiy36 yes you can and ps3 controllers aswell

[livesince1985]

can you use the xbox controller keyboard on the pc

[Shaggmire]

lol i did the same thing, even started with a madcats one from gamestop, hated it, when my wire started breaking it was the right stick that messed up for me. after that i got the microsoft wired one, just got the wireless one now. cant get the dongle to work, i dont know why

[emmetl7]

does the button remapping work for cracked games ?

[Lemonsquat83]

I can't find that dongle anywhere can you post a link?

[edhssoccer94]

do you have to press the button on the dongle every time you turn on your computer?

[Aerox196]

1 question : for example COD4 ,can I play splitscreen on it with controller?

[OUTRUNNOKIE]

thank you best vid ive seen on this subject for wireless others are poop i didnt even know you could use controller on pc thank goodness you can!!! :)

[SweetHandsUp]

how long do the batteries last???

[Khuzaiffah]

To use this controller, must have xbox game put inside computer

[1LonePuma]

With your new X-box controller, perhaps another video with you using on a game? Seeing the controller didn't come instructions for its buttons I have to use the mouse and keyboard with the game Battlefield 3, very unsettling. One must juggle between all three to play the game...Say What...I may end up giving up before I get started or selling the whole thing. I don't juggle.

[mrbeady9]

Do you only need one dongle for 2 controllers?

[shuffleman850]

Where you got it

[Theman133510133510]

can i play any games with the xbox controller

[Thekingofmusic96]

Where can i buy it?

[MrJoobledoo]

do you know anything about being able to use the controller by just using the play and charge kit? I've heard rumors about it...

[LethalBlazeK]

Hey can you please send me a link of the usb connector? thanks

[appletvplop]

takes this guy to 8 fkin minutes to show you the most simplest, straightforward thing in the world.

This guy is obviously a part time DJ for local radio station Waffle Q102 FM!

[blueflame372]

It also works on just cause 2. ( great game ) check it out!

[Allardio]

could i connect an headset to the controller?

[Allardio]

madcatz is for kids,

[c00kies25]

Wtf the dongle wire is soo long

[lulu321]

Can I use two or more controllers with this dongle?

[JimmyyFilms]

[Joshgt2]

@JimmyyFilms With this one, yes

[tsunamaisurfer606]

@Joshgt2 do you know if it works with BF3?

[olfan92]

@Joshgt2 mine is installed and plugged in and set to Gamepad but its still not working... any help?

[CoolGamerPro]

where can we buy/order this?

[Joshgt2]

@CoolGamerPro I bought this from my local Best Buy. I know places like Gamestop also sell this type of product as well.

[CoolGamerPro]

where can be buy/order this dongle i really want it, i really want to play games like batman,assassins creed using the xboxx joystick on m pc so where do i buy it or rder it?

[XxDdgaMerxX]

They dont sell real ones anymore Microsoft stop selling or making them more is the term but you still can by fake ones which are the same.

[TheJspringford]

What's that thing called that plugs into pc . And will this work on laptop

[Joshgt2]

@TheJspringford It's called a dongle, and yes, it will work on any Windows XP machine and higher. This includes laptops and desktops

[tsunamaisurfer606]

@Joshgt2 can I buy the dongle separatly?

[ViLiN1996]

can this work for grand theft auto iv?? plz lett me no :)

[XxDdgaMerxX]

@ViLiN1996 Yeah it does work for GTAIV because its a Games for Windows Live game any Games for Windows Live games works with the Xbox 360 controller on PC and some others work as well like Assassins Creed Brotherhood and COD Black Ops.

[Don3549]

Your Hands look strong as shit!! Reminds me of the Family Guy episode when quagmire found out he can watch porn on the internet. lol Good vid though!!

[LecktroX]

Dude, I broke my drivers CD, how else can I get the drivers ?

[LittleRicky63]

can i just get the wireless reciever and connect my xbox 360 controller?

[torpedo192]

cool wallpaper!

[Tragonftw]

Good tut..

[etaks99]

in a game, can you control say, the acceleration of a car by only applying so much pressure on the trigger or is it like the arrow keys were you can only have full acceleration or no acceleration?

[TaskinKosedag]

instead of buying a xbox or ps3 you can buy a xbox controller for your pc and download pirated games :D

[1plushy1]

how the fuck do u get this to work bro

[Joshgt2]

@1plushy1 Plug and play. Windows 7 finds and installs everything for you on the spot. If you're using Windows XP Service Pack 3 it should also do the same thing. Plug in the USB control or Dongle and you should be good to go.

[wiisaluteyou]

gamestop sucks ass

[Noxus007]

can you have more than one controller to a PC wireless like that?

[PurpleStorm8]

What kind of monumental moron decided to name their product "Dongle"?....

[Linixion]

@PurpleStorm8 Dunno but it's a generic name for basically any small object you plug into usb port that connects wirelessly to anything else (ie for wireless mice and such). It's pretty normal these days now haha
