Use a PC Controller For Gaming

If you love video games and love to play them on your PC you should definitely invest in a nice controller if you don't already have one. What controllers are the best? We would absolutely recommend using the console controllers like the Xbox 360 and PS3 controllers. If you have a puzzled look on your face don't worry, did you know you can use these controllers with your PC? The reason we would recommend these controllers is that they are made to take some serious abuse, and not only that, if you ever play on the 360 or PS3 you will already know the controls and not be the odd man out.

The XBOX 360 controller is very easy as it is compatible with windows. Honestly all you have to do is plug in the USB version of the controller and it should just automatically work. If you want to use the wireless controllers Microsoft sells a hub station that will let the controllers work with your PC wirelessly. The PS3 controller is compatible but you may have to download the SIXAXIS drivers so it will work with the PC. The controllers have a USB hookup which will work but if you want to use it wirelessly they utilize blue tooth technology. You will have to purchase a bluetooth hub station from sony or have a computer equipped with a bluetooth capability.
