about the xbox gamepad

[Sunghyun Myung]

Couldn't find a general thread about this...
Does anyone know if the xbox gamepad supports analog steering IN PC for racing games?

It's best to post this in Sim Racing Hardware.

Yes, the 360 controller does support steering through the analog sticks.

If you are using a wired 360 controller, simply plug it into a USB port on your PC.

However, if you're using wireless, you need the Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver to connect your controller to a PC.

If you live in America, you can purchase it from Best Buy for $50 if I'm not mistaken.

Hope this helps.

Mine works just fine, although I had to install the driver manually
