Xbox Controller For Pc

[Titus808]

update:

I could not find an adapter at gamestop or radioshack (overpriced fucks,) so I opted to buy an usb cable and some electrical tape, radioshack wanted 21 dollars for a 3ft usb cable , I said fuck that, so I went to this place called daiei (sort of walmart in hawaii,) the same cable was there for $5.49 . and some electrical tape for .99 cents. By the way stripping those tiny wires was HARD. Anyways it worked, and it worked "well," but now i'm having alot of trouble getting any software to recognize it, other than windows and the driver package. A weird thing is that I can navigate the menus in euro 2004, but I cannot play or get it to recognize it (euro won't even recognize my joystick.)

I tried NFSU with less luck than euro, If anyone knows how to use XBCD properly (maybe i'm doing something wrong) please say something .

I'm just glad it worked, now just to get it to "work."


Good news everyone!: the controller works with all flash games I've tried (JoyToyKey emulator) and it works with simpson's hit n' run, euro 2004 is a whore...I'm still tryin', never dyin'!

the whole point of this excercise was to avoid paying for a gamepad (instead I spent 7 bucks and got a magnificent rumble-infused xbox pad on my pc)


It now works on all my games, but euro 2004 is retarded about it, at least it works, we scored our first goal (GOL&#33 over here . With the keyboard it's impossible .


Anyways I highly recommend this to anyone willing to try it, the xbox pad whoops ass, and I can swap it with any type of xbox pad I want (the trip-wire B))

Gamepads are for peons, real men use the keyboard/mouse combo&#33;&nbsp;

Analog sticks are the stupidest thing I have ever seen for FPS, most third person shooters, and strategy in any form.

For sports games you need a gamepad, for FPS keyboard / mouse the only way to play.

If you wanted to get a xbox-usb converter you can go to Lik Sang, its in Honk Kong so it will take a while but they have all kinds of random stuff.

Excellent&#33; I&#39;m really glad it worked for you&#33; Now the question is, did you ever find a replacement for your short cord so you can still use it with your Xbox? I&#39;m pretty sure they have used ones at EB Games if there&#39;s one in your area.

nahh it&#39;s not my xbox anyways , but we have another xbox controller to use for it, so it&#39;s all good.

Do I HAVE to use an usb extension cable, OR could i just take an old usb wire i dont need and cut the thing and have and use it instead? Also, will this work on usb 1.1 or does it need to be 2.0?
