Title: On the top of a 360 controller, the plug thing...
Post by: Trialz on June 23, 2008, 07:40:45 PM: Is that where I could plug in a usb so I can use the controller in the pc to play GTA SA?

Does that look like a USB port? No you cannot. But there are other ways, try google.

Post by: JayFoxRox on June 23, 2008, 10:50:44 PM: UtterGarbage - The chargecord is a replacement for the battery pack and its only for charging. Buttonpresses etc keep beeing send wireless (Therefore it Would not work)
You need a real wired controller afaik (thats what I have atleast). An easier solution might be to get an Xbox 1 S pad (which is even better than the 360 pad imo) and just rewire it. There are unoffical drivers for it.

//Edit: A friend just agreed with this as he said he tested it, however, another review said it works to also plug it into a pc while charging which doesn't make any sense then... I guess you should try it out yourself or ask around

Post by: Wanted on June 25, 2008, 12:11:32 AM: I tried this ages ago. It doesn't work, at least with the type I got.. as Fox said, it only works with actual wired ones. It has some kind of thing in there that works with the software you need to install on the pc. And wireless one's dont have this.
