Im trying to understand your question. You are looking for an xbox-type controller than can plug into a computer's universal seriel bus port?

Playing with a mouse is lame. I'm getting one of these for sure. What a great idea. I have a lot of pc games that I can benefit from using this with my controller. Great find.

Happy Gaming

Ah, mainstreamers and their petrified opinions. Gotta love em!

How come when I play with a mouse i can look up and down and then do a 360, all in the time it takes me to look UP on a controller?

Yeah, that's a great reason to play with a mouse, duh.....

I just prefer a controller of a keyboard and mouse because I'm far more used to it.

Besides, I hate sitting in an office chair and playing on my little 19" monitor compared to sitting on my nice couch in front of my 50" HDTV ;)

yep, thats what i ment http://www.play-asia.com/paos-13-30ad6035.html here is a store link


I thought i saw someone saying how they bought one for six bucks tho.

I can aim with a mouse well but it's hard to hit and jump and shoot and aim and move all at once with a keyboard

Where'd you get your TV at? Ever since their release, the price has been going down like crazy. Went down 3000 in one month.

I picked up my Toshiba 50" 16x9 aspect ratio HDTV at a place called Video Only. This was about 1 1/2 years ago. I'm running the Monster 400 series XBox Component Video cables and the proprietary optical cable for my 5.1 DD SS system. I love it!

Oh yeah...the other reason why I don't PC game nearly as much is that I can't afford upgrading my computer since I chose to soup up my electronic stuff :D
