Well my most recent Logitech pad controller crapped out on me so I need a new controller that wont crap out within 2months. All the suggestions I have had have been "wired 360 controller" but no one knows if I need another piece or its just plug in and go.

So my question is...how does a 360 controller work on a pc.
wireless can work, but either wireless or wired requires the driver and xpadder period...

the trigger buttons need xpadder

ive been really enjoying my 360 controller, and it hasnt crapped out like the 4 logitec ones ive bought

i just wish it was doable to use a controller when 2 boxing...
it will spam up when i try

hmmm.this topic caught my eye..awhile back i got one of the 360 brand wireless pc controllers and i have no idea how to get it to work. ive read through this forum,but im not very pc savvy..and have no idea really what ppl r taliking about >.>. anyways..i can get it to move things around in the play online viewer a bit(the anolog wont do anything),and once i start the actual game...the remote wont respond at all. ive been in the playonline controller config b4,but idk what some of the button definitions r actually saying there for. what im asking really is a mapping key for the buttons to match the 360 style as much as possible.or to get this thing to work some how....in words a dummy could figure out lol. i have a laptop with vista if it helps...i juss feel like i wasted 60$ on this stupid controller i dont evan use. =)
