No Xbox Controller Support For 360

True, different color "Rings" or leds, like on the front of the original xbox, would be a good way to tell which controller you were picking up.

My main concern still is say 3 xboxes, 2 players on each on LIVE, and your controller is not sending its signal to the xbox/T.V you are sitting in front of.. rather the one in the next room etc.. they must have some option on XBOX360 bootup/menu to detect new controllers or something.. and you would have to select that option, and hit a certain button on the controller you want it to detect and choose which controller port to assign it to.  Like pairing a cellphone to a bluetooth headset.. it could just get really annoying to have to do that everytime you switch around controllers..
Hope to see some innovative thinking.

But there has to be a way to copy your profile to your buddy's xbox 360 besides live..
or I hope they don't fuck up and leave that feature out.

Besides it has USB ports.... that takes a lot of the trouble with the first one away... assuming you can copy files from a mem stick... but I doubt it because that would kill the market for their memory cards (which start at 64mb btw)  They could theoretically put a complete linux distro in a game save on one of those memory cards.

I don't think TS is getting on your case.  I knew what you meant.  Probably just giving you a hard time.  wink.gif

i doubt they will use a signed chip for the controllers, as it would piss off 3rd parties, anyways the output of the "X" on the x360 controller should allways be the same, this part seems very easy to make.

on another note, the wireless connection of the controllers was allready discussed by MS, there is a connect button on the x360 in order to "register" the controller to the console. The ring of light on the console is seperated into 4 led sections, or quadrents, each quadrent representing the controller which is in use, upper left is 1st to lower right which is 4th (may be different in right to left countries), the ring of light led corresponds with the led on the controller.
