Doc Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I know you can hook up the keyboard to your 360 via USB (to send messages), but how bout the mouse? Seems like it would make FPS's much better. I did a few seconds of research and nothing great came up, was wondering what fellow Gladz thought about it Link to comment
Emeraldwpn Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 sounds like a plan. test it and find out, since this genre of systems is pretty compatible with PCs or so I think. I know I wanted to try using my controller on my pc, but never got around to doing it. Link to comment

Cpatel23 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 wait there are controllers that i can plug into my usb and play pc games?mind=blown Link to comment
Doc Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 wait there are controllers that i can plug into my usb and play pc games?mind=blownI think so. Not sure how you would get it to work though.Apparently this is a wired Xbox 360 controller and the other end is a USB insert putter thinger. Can plug into a USB accepter thinger on your computer or xbox 360. I suppose you would plug it in to your computer, and the computer would detect it as "New Hardware" or whatever. http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-Wired-Controller-Black/dp/B003ZSN600I also found this when I looked that up:http://www.amazon.com/Fragfx-Shark-360-Controller-PC-Mac/dp/B0052RLMGM/ref=pd_sim_vg_3Supposed to be a mouse and something else you can play the xbox with. But for $70 and a shitty piece of equipment, no thanks. I'd much rather (somehow) program my keyboard to perform the Xbox 360 controller functions, along with my mouse. And this is probably where you'd go to check out a controller on your computer: Link to comment
Dan G Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 You can just plug a 360 controller in and it'll automatically download the drivers and work. Link to comment

Dan G Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 You 100% can with a USB keyboard but I've never needed to try a mouse. Link to comment
Doc Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 You 100% can with a USB keyboard but I've never needed to try a mouse.Well.. damn. If you hook up your 360 soon, could ya give it a try for me? I have used the keyboard to type before, it's damn convenient, but a mouse would just be very useful in a FPS Link to comment
Daytonnn Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Doc, I asked my friend and he said he uses a mouse and keyboard adapter for his xbox 360.This is the site he gave me where he purchased the adapter : http://xim3.com/Hope that helps Link to comment
Dan G Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I was going to say: I've only ever used the keyboard for typing so I have no idea if it works as a controller. Link to comment
