Well, my gaming PC doesn't have Bluetooth so I'm looking at some kind of dongle for any wireless controller. I wonder what the situation is with the old Xbox 360 controllers. I have the console and controller but how do you connect it to a PC? From a little Googling it looks like the standalone receivers one Ebay are Chinese knockoffs and the original was never sold separately. So would I have to buy the PC version of the controller to get a receiver or try my luck with Ebay?
