Strengths:Enables use of 360 controller with PC. Works with 360 and pc.

Weaknesses:High retail price (MSRP)

Summary:The xbox 360 controller and wireless gaming receiver is a great combo package. For some PC games, the ability to use the controller greatly improves gameplay. A plus is that you can use the controller on both the PC and Xbox. If it can be found to be cheaper than the wireless controller by itself, you should buy this.

Strengths:-works on xbox as well as PC-works well on PC games that it supports

Weaknesses:-does not support some PC games

Summary:The xbox 360 controller with gaming receiver is a good investment. The receiver supports up to 4 xbox controllers to connet to the PC which is a very good deal. However it lacks support for certain pc games such as Call of Duty 4.

Strengths:Comfort, easy to use, long range

Weaknesses:none

Summary:In the past, most PC game pads were garbage compare to console pads. This generation, Microsoft decides to make their console pad work effortlessly with PC running Windows XP/Vista and it now becomes the best PC game pad ever. If you need a PC game pad, there just isn\'t anything better than this set up at the moment. Go get one!

Strengths:Pretty confortable to use even with intense gamming. Good battery life. Great recieption.

Weaknesses:D-pad is a complete nightmare if you have a game that is dependent on it.

Summary:The battery life is great with 2 AA batteries. The recieption was outstanding. I have yet to have any interferance while gamming. It feels really comfortable after hours of intense gamming. Pretty good physical appearance. The D-pad is not really responsive. It\'s not really accurate while intense gamming, and it gets me mad sometimes.

Strengths:-Wireless-Includes Wireless USB receiver for PC usage-Feels great

Weaknesses:-None

Summary:Great, ergonomically designed controller for both your XBOX 360 and Windows PC. The included wireless receiver connects to your USB port to allow usage with Windows. Although I haven\'t tried it, I intend to use it to connect a XBOX 360 Wireless Guitar (from Guitar Hero 3 or Rock Band) to my PC for use with other guitar/rhythym games that are available on the PC.

I\'ve experienced no problems and it works exactly as advertised. If you\'ve ever used the controlled on the XBOX 360, then you\'ll be just as happy using it on your PC. If you haven\'t used on yet, just pop into any of the big box electronic stores and try the wired controllers on the demo boxes for a good comparison.

Strengths:Included wireless receiver for cheaper than controller + receiver separately, works with XP or Vista

Weaknesses:D-pad could be better

Summary:The Xbox 360 Controller for Windows is a standard Xbox 360 wireless controller with bundled USB receiver for a PC. The package retails for $10 more than a standard 360 wireless controller, though the two items separately are $20 additional. The drivers work with both XP and Vista, and works with any game as the drivers are done through the OS. The D-pad has some issues, though they\'re minor. For anyone that is thinking about a 360 controller that might use it for the PC, this is the way to go.

Strengths:well designed, easy to install, responsive

Weaknesses:some buttons are not programmable

Summary:This is a very well designed controller that fits perfectly in the hand. It also looks very nice. All the buttons and controls are well placed and responsive. Installation was very easy. Pop in the CD and it\'s done. The only slight issue is that 2 of the trigger buttons are not programmable with all the games.

Strengths:(1) One of the best traditional controller out there (2) Includes Wireless Receiver needed to use the controller with your PC

Weaknesses:(1) None, really, if you need a controller for your 360 and PC get this one

Summary:The Xbox 360 Wireless Controller w/ Wireless Gaming Receiver is a great option for those who game on both the XBOX 360 and PC. The wireless receiver allows it to do double duty as both a XBOX 360 controller and PC gamepad. While that pretty much sums up the advantage of this particular package, it must be said that the XBOX 360 controller is one of the best, traditional controllers out there and is really comfortable and responsive. The wireless range is excellent whether you are using your 360 or PC. The included wireless receiver is well built and sleek, too.

Weaknesses:d-pad not very accurateonly available in white

Summary:This is an excellent controller for use with xbox360 and PC. The wireless controller has a great range and long battery life. One of the nice features is the buttons can be remapped for different games. Also, it works great with pc games from microsoft. The unit is built like a tank. I\'ve dropped it a few times and it still works great. Don\'t even consider other pc controllers. This is the one you need!

Strengths:360 & PC compatible

Weaknesses:White only

Summary:I bought and use this solely for my 360. I will be using the wireless receiver with my Microsoft racing wheel though. This package is a bargain if you need the wireless receiver. It is the same as the standard 360 wireless controller, just marketed for Windows.

Strengths:Design. Build quality. Wireless. Great range. Works with both Xbox and PC.

Weaknesses:None that I can think of.

Summary:I have been using this controller since the 360 came out, and brought this one as a backup and because I can use it for PC gaming if ever I get tired of games on the 360. These controllers are built to last, as my current one has taken multiple hits on the floor in frustration without any damage!! I have pretty big hands, and this controller fits nicely with all the buttons and sticks in the right place. I use rechargeable batteries which last about 3 days of heavy gaming- and the controller warns you with pretty lights when they are almost drained (you can also tell when the vibration stops working). Overall, highly recommended.

Strengths:Works with both Windows and Xbox 360. Comfortable to hold.

Weaknesses:Often hit D-pads diagonal\'s when trying to press in a straight direction (Up,Down,Left,Right).

Summary:Despite the above, I actually really like this controller. The triggers can be used in any game by using a seperate program, I recommend Xpadder. This controller is really comfortable in the hands, and the analog sticks are probably the best I\'ve used. Recommended.

Summary:This is the best PC controller on the market. Very comfortable and responsive.

The dead zone on the analog sticks should be bigger. Hopefully XBCD will add support for the wireless controller soon.

Strengths:Can work with both the 360 and PC wirelessly.

Weaknesses:None

Summary:If you need an xbox360 wireless controller get the version for windows. You can find it online for about the same price as a regular xbox360 wireless controller. but hthis one comes with a USB adapter to work with a PC. So if you cna get one with PC compatibility and one without for the same price, go with this one. So far it\'s worked great but I\'ve only tried it with Fable for the PC.
