Now.. how about releasing the information about how you got these to work with the Xbox 360 at all?  In other words, how did you bypass the security that makes only licensed Xbox 360 controllers work with the system?  Would be a great help to the community, maybe we could somehow get Xbox 1 controllers working on 360 or something of that nature.

And that is my biggest question: why the ps2 controller and not original xbox controller? blink.gif

I'd actually consider at that price if i could use my xbox duke controller on it.

i don't like the S-type 360 controllers at all... wish i could use an adapter for the big bulky xbox controllers... in fact, i'm not buying a 360 until i can use an xbox 1 controller (the first, or similar) and a price drop occurs...

This is way too expensive for just an adaptor. And for using an Xbox1 contoroller I think you could buy a Xbox1 to USB controller and use it on the USB port.

If it was 40-50$ I might consider buying it, but at 80$US plus shipping, hell no.

Well, you will be a few buttons short so some games would be impossible to play anyway...

80bucks? so with postage you are looking at nearer to 90, that is gonna make it at least $120 is Australia...ouch.

I think they won't get any takers unless a lot of *great* reviews come in.

I was expecting $50 and even then that was my outside limit to buy.

AHHAHAHAH yea thats good thing we have this, because that VERY EXPENSIVE wheel can now be avoided and we can have a VERY VERY expensive hookup for a regular priced wheel!

I was going to buy this, I was also VERY excited about it, but 80$? yer kidding me, id rather have a broken wireless headset!
