 Quality Product July 9, 2007

I bought one of these from Curry's for £14.99 as I like the xbox 360 controller for playing racing games and more recently the excellent shooter Lost Planet on my pc. I usually use a keyboard and mouse for shooters but this game works very well using the 360 controller. Fortunately I didnt manage to damage the receiver when opening the extremely difficult to get into packaging and setup was a doddle - plug into a spare USB port, install the driver that comes on the CD ,press the button on top of the receiver and the green light flashes, press the little receiver button on your wireless controller ( turn the pad on first, ahem! ) and 2 seconds later it connects and away you go. You do need to go through the same procedure when using with your 360 as the pad locks onto whichever device you're using ie the receiver or the 360 console. Great idea for not alot of your hard earned !
exactly what it says February 19, 2007

Does exactly what you would expect, it allows you to connect up to 4 Xbox360 controllers and headsets at once to play games on your PC. Installation was a doddle, although there are no Vista drivers on the supplied disk you can force the XP drivers and they work fine, or download the Vista drivers from Microsoft's site.
Pros - playing PC games with a wireless controller made easy as pie
Cons - No supplied Vista drivers, but they are still easy to get hold of
Final thoughts - if you want to use your 360 pads for PC gaming, look no further
Works like a charm! May 30, 2007

The Xbox 360 Crossfire works perfectly and took 10 minutes to set up. It works with all Xbox 360 Wireless products like, Wireless Racing Wheel, Wireless Headset and obviously Wireless Controller.
It works semlessly with all Games for Windows Games like Tomb Raider and Halo 2. You don't need to set it up or anything!
I recommend you pick one up since its only £[..]
Does exactly what it says on the tin, very well. May 12, 2008

This reciever lets you use your Xbox 360 controller, Racing wheel and headset with you Windows computer, this it does very well, and for only £10-£15.
I usualy only play games on my Xbox, but recently got a new computer and wanted to get games such as Portal for it, however, i do not like using the mouse/keyboard set-up so i bought one of these. The Xbox 360 controller is quite possibly the most comfortable i have ever used and i am pleased that i can now use it with my computer.
Please note, if you put the disc in a Windows Vista machine, it will say you do not have the required specifications and will direct you to a page on microsoft's website where you can download and install the Windows Vista version of the driver.
 Really? is it that great? October 10, 2009

i bought this together with the controller, With no doubt this is a good device, had no problem with packaging, connecting and it worked flawlessly... for about 3 months and microsoft ain't doing anything about it...
The Pad is still working flawlessly but the receiver is dead and gone, if you check online on this info about the reciver not working after a few months or so
you are guaranteed to find many people complaining about this, and i am one of them. I dont hate the device, just hate that i never got to use it longer,
not telling you to stay away just telling you to buy at your own risk cause some people get lucky and some just dont and i personally will say to those who still have it working, it will eventually shut itself down. 3 stars is all i can give (thank God i have an X-Box 360 too).
