Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-06 Summary: Worked exceedingly well to my suprise ... If you have a PC game that states that it is compatible with the 360 console controller (i.e. Fallout 3, Dead Space) and you already have a wireless 360 controller, it is very worth considering this adapter. it worked without fuss in 32bit Windows XP, and worked exactly as it should. ...more

The wireless receiver doses the job that it advertise when it comes to games with the windows logo. but it would be nice if it also aloud you to program it to work with other games as well like other controllers on the market.

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-28 Summary: Best Controller!! ... This is the best controller ever. It has great comfort and solid build quality. I have a Logitech Dual Action gamepad, and this is much better since first of all it is wireless! No more worring aobut the cord! Second, the triggers are easier to use than the normal shoulder buttons on the Dual Action. I play NBA 2K9 on the PC and it is easier to sprint using the trigger. In addition, I like the analog sticks' placements compared to the Dual Action. I like how the left analog stick is in the top left and the d-pad is ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-29 Summary: Play PC games the right way with this great controller! ... This controller takes away the awkward feeling of playing on a keyboard and mouse by using the famous Xbox 360 controller! The controller is exactly the same as the wireless controller used for the 360 and utilizes a very small receiver that you can hide out of sight! My only con is that it wasn't compatible with COD4 out of the box, so I have to a use a game profiler like Pinnacle to play it. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-09 Summary: Console Envy ... OK... so I don't have a console, but I do have a decent computer with a good graphics card. Now I can play many of my favorite games without having to mash on a keyboard. Well worth the money. You can also use it with an Xbox 360 down the road if you feel the need. Communications seem to be very reliable and the drivers / setup was very easy. ...more

Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows Someone should have told be before I bought a Logitech wireless controller that it wouldn't work with most PC games. Playing Medal Of Honor Airborne was a pain. The forward\backward movement was reversed and I tried everything to get it to work it was driving me nuts!!

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-08-10 Summary: Awsome ... I purchased this as a present for my step-son.

I'm sure there are better, but for the money, this is great. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-04 Summary: Great Headset ... The title says it all. Great sound quality, comfortable, and easy set-up. If you're in the market for a gaming headset, these would be an excellent choice. Perfect for some late-night gaming when noise volume is a factor but you don't want to hinder your gaming experience. These allow you to hear everything you need and then some, and the Bass Boost only adds to the immersion. The padded ear cups and cushioned crossbar are perfect. You could wear them for hours on end and not feel the slightest discomfort. Set-up is ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-07-13 Summary: Almost Perfect ... I bought these headsets to be able to play on XBox Live and listen to TV/movies late at night and they're almost perfect. The sound is amazing and the reception area is great. I can almost walk out of the a 17' wide room before losing reception. The only problem I have with this headset and why I didn't give it a 5 star review is that it does not have a charging stand. So you'll have to get rechargeable batteries and replace them every so often depending upon your use. I got about 20 hours of use out of the included ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-11 Summary: Not too bad ... The X3 from turtle beach will change your gaming experience. I purchased it because my dog chewed up my original headset that came with the xbox. I play a lot of Halo 3 and Call of Duty. Headset is awesome for both games and it really does drown out any other sounds surrounding you in the room. It could use more BASS though, but thats just something I personally like. One problem that I find very annoying with this product is WHITE NOISE. When the game sound is in idle (when there is no game noise) all you hear is ...more
[5] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-02 Summary: These are good, but not perfect ... Just like most people, I bought these so that my fiance wouldn't have to hear me on the nights where she had to get up early and go to work when I had the next day off. The sound is good, but not AWESOME. I read the reviews here and talked to other people that used them and everyone said they sound AMAZING. I've got great ears for sound quality unlike many people and I didn't think these were as "amazing" as people were putting them out to be. They are good, but not great. If you play CoD4, you can sometimes tell when ...more
Editorial Reviews ... Product Description | PC gamers rely on headphones to eliminate distracting noise around them, so they can concentrate on their game play and hear every nuance of the game audio. Stereo headphones with an integrated PC microphone are incompatible with the Xbox 360, so gamers are forced to choose between using standard headphones and talking online. Conventional Xbox communicator headsets cover one ear for chat, leaving only a single ear for hearing game audio from the speakers. The Ear Force X3 overcome this...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-13 Summary: Works With The 360, $50 cheaper Than 360 Adapter. ... This adapter is designed for the original XBox but it DOES work with the 360. The 360 wireless adapter is $100 and this one is only $50. That alone is worth it's weight. Setup is easy on the 360, first plug in the bulky power supply adapter into an outlet. (Yet another power plug to add to my growing collection behind the TV.) Plug the included ethernet cable into the adapter and the other end into the 360. DO NOT use the included setup CD ROM! You don't need it. Once everything is connected, turn on the 360 and go ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-12 Summary: Purchased for my original xbox. Works great with my 360 Elite ... I had originally purchased this for my Xbox about five years ago. I got the Elite and hadn't hooked it up yet and had been looking online for a wireless adapter when I found this one in a box. I don't know why I hadn't expected it to be compatible but I held my breath as I hooked it up. It works like a charm and is pretty much invisible to my day to day use. I rarely notice it except at night when I turn off the lights. "Oh yea" I say as I see the green blinky lights and recall the money I saved. ...more

This Xbox 360 Wireless Controller (blue) is an Xbox 360 Wireless Controller, much like the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller that came packaged with my Xbox 360, only it is blue instead of matching the color of my Xbox.

When the original came back, I was finally able to have a second Xbox to move to my new LCD TV that has 1080P support. This unit has the HDMI out, so easy to hook up, and graphics are incredible.

I prefer playing games on either console over my PC. Xbox 360 Pros: - more games available - prefer the controller (not a major difference) Cons: - unable to play Blu-ray movies - concerned about red ring of death - produces so much heat that I cannot use it in summer (it is like a space-heater) - the loud fan is annoying - there is a fee ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-23 Summary: Awesome! ... Just a great system!! Has the games that I enjoy playing. I do prefer the 360 controller as opposed to the PS3, that's just me. So after having the console for over a year, I enjoyed playing it more with the recent games that came out. Not to mention the update on the dashboard. A little kiddie for my taste but the layout is straight forward. Flipping through the tabs are much crisper too. Overall, a great system to have with a lot of cool features. Xbox LIVE is a great experience to play with fellow gamers online. ...more

Did you know the following facts about Xbox?
The promotional campaign for Xbox 360 began on March 14, 2005, with the opening of an alternate reality game called OurColony.
The end of OurColony came on May 12, 2005, with the release of a video where J Allard of Microsoft showed off the Xbox 360 console.
Since Microsoft owns the intellectual property rights to the hardware used in the Xbox 360, they can easily switch to new fabrication processes or change suppliers in the future to reduce costs.
Microsoft is predicting that with the Xbox 360, a greater market share, yearly revenue through their Xbox Live service, and falling hardware costs will eventually make system sales profitable.
With the launch of the Xbox 360, Microsoft's online gaming service, Xbox Live went through a major upgrade, adding a basic non-subscription service, Silver, to its already established premium subscription-based service, Gold.
Dashboard version 2.0.4532.0 allows the Xbox 360 to output video at 1080p and installs support for Zune and the external HD DVD drive attachment.
Microsoft XNA is a set of tools and technologies that includes XNA Studio, which provides versions of key production tools such as asset management, defect tracking, project automation and work lists.
Microsoft XNA also includes other components such as the XNA Framework and XNA Build. Anyone can develop a game using XNA Game Studio Express, an IDE for homebrew developers, which was initially released in beta form on August 30, 2006.
Backward compatibility is achieved through software emulation of the original Xbox.
Only six games were initially offered in Japan, and eagerly anticipated titles like Dead or Alive 4 were not released until several weeks after launch.
The Xbox CPU also contains ROM storing Microsoft private encrypted keys, used to decrypt game data.
While the first Xbox's graphics processing unit was produced by NVIDIA, the Xbox 360 uses a chip designed by ATI called Xenos.
The console features 512 MB of 700 megahertz GDDR3 RAM on a 128-bit bus.
