Why do you people whine so much? "Oh I can't use my xbox controllers" "Oh I cant use my harddrive" "Oh I can't use my component plugs"
You should know that the majority of what you pay for on a console won't stay with you when that console goes to dust.

xbox mem cards plug into the controller, so if an adapter was made for the controller to plug into the 360 wouldn't the mem card still be plugged into the controller?

most likely it would be plugged into the usb port because thats where all the external devices are read.

He's asking if when you plug an xbox1 controller into the xbox360 usingthe adapter, will it also read the memory which is in the controller.

guess what, no one knows. I don't think the memory information will make it into the console due to the xbox360s memory reading software.

Yeah that sounds like that will be the case... think about it now.. you see the mem cards as controllers 1-4 if it has mem card slots it might only read the mem ports for save games... which if it has standard USB ports I don't see it allowing you to just use a regular mem stick cause that would kill after market memory card sales... though they SHOULD allow that, those greddy bastards won't ... can we not scream ANTI-TRUST loud enough? guess it helps if the corporations didn't own the government though sad.gif

No , it no longer haves Communicator Adapter, is built in , the headset plugs right into the controller.

wink.gif How is MS greedy? If they don't make money, then they can't make any more xboxs and can't afford to keep contracts with game developers and we will have to start playing on sony consoles. Is that what you want?

It's a different scenario. Playstation was the #1 of it's generation .They didn't go through profit loss etc which the Xbox went through.
MS lost alot of money making the xbox, they only started making money a while ago. The playstation was much more sucessful, money wise, than the xbox.

im not getting into this argument again.........but its not like the ps1 accessories worked well with the ps2 anyway! I have an analog ps1 controller that i use on my ps2 but it only works with SOME games and dont even ask about the ps1 multi tap.

sony spoiled this generation with promises of being able to use your ps1 stuff with the ps2 and some of the stuff didnt even work anyway. Some games didnt work with the ps2 and accessories too.

The dual shock 2 added "analog" to all the buttons except start and select.. so yeah some of the new games required the newer stuff... my steering wheel worked.

Oh and ALL my old PS1 games were able to use the old cont.  so in that you were able to start off with couple of hundred games that worked with the old controller.  At least you were given that much.


*edit: Just so you guys know, I'm no sony lover... I haven't touched my PS in years... just playing devil's advocate and looking at things logically

Take Deep Breaths.
Punctuation is your friend.

Also, you don't have to have a credit card for xboxlive for the xbox360, not even with this gen.

Speaking of Playstation controllers didn't Sony release Dual-Shock 2 controllers which were needed for some of the games? Kind of a trick to get you to say "Hey i can use my old controllers instead of having to buy new ones" only to find out you actually do need new ones.

the only thing I want to know is if my Plantronics Headset will work with the 360 controller. The plantronics headset is really awesome to use and extremely comfortable, not to mention I paid like $50 for it. I read somewhere that the mute and volume control buttons are on the new 360 headset's cord...so Im a little anxious to see if it will work or if they will be making an adapter or something.

it will work but you'll have no volume control or mute ability without an adapter of some sort... I'm sure we'll see some 3rd party devices eventually (or you could build your own, it wouldn't be that hard).

Please set me straight if I'm completely out of line here, but...
Doesn't it look like you can put your old mem. cards into the front of the xbox360? I'm under the impression that the new mem. cards will fit into those slots on the controller, but if I'm wrong about that, then I'm probably wrong about everything else.
