If you have a rechargeable Xbox 360 Controller, can you connect the controller to your PC via the USB port?
Title: Re: Mice vs Controller for PC Gaming

The plug and play kit?

I tried it, and it doesn't work. You have to have a special wireless connector.

I can never use a controller again after PC gaming for so long. I'm using a G500 and G15v2 right now. I occasionally use a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro for flight sims like FSX and IL Sturmovik, but never an actual controller.


EDIT:

I'm personally getting a Mionix Naos 5000 soon, because I'm not impressed with my logitech gear and am looking to move on. I used one at a friend's and came away extremely impressed with the comfort and accuracy, although if you use the claw grip don't get one.
you are not impressed with a G500 and G15? only better i can think of on keyboard is the G19 (which i have, and is great) and the Optimus Maximus.
for mouse... G500 is great stuff.

I use a Logitech MX Revolution mouse that I purchased 4 years ago. It doesn't receive all the time, but I believe that it's just the USB receiver that is malfunctioning. I'm getting a new receiver which should be here by tomorrow.

As for my keyboard, I use a Saitek Cyborg. I used to have an Saitek Eclipse II but the keys were going out on it.

I use a Logitech Controller that is pretty much a close of a PS2 controller for most things..

Title: Re: Mouse vs Controller for PC Gaming
Post by: yoda9726 on March 02, 2011, 05:46:37 AM
I use a ps2 controller mostly.  And a 10 dollar Logitech laser mouse for everything else.

Logitech TrackMan. I have a small desk, so I don't have any space for a proper mousepad.

I only have a Toshiba Satellite L300 laptop but sometimes i use this:(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/13201targus mouse.PNG)
It even comes with its own little bag :3

BTW Kill that stuff looks rather old...
Title: Re: Mouse vs Controller for PC Gaming
Post by: kill343gs on March 02, 2011, 01:47:53 PM
It is. I can't stand flatscreen monitors for real gaming, so I stuck with the CRT. The mouse is actually really awesome, except when the ball gets dirty and it won't work.
