Guys,

If people will suggest the Xbox One / 360 pads, that's fine, but how do they work WIRELESSLY?

I want 2 for a sofa gaming PC, and don't mind a dingle plugged in. But will one dongle recognise 2 etc? Has anyone done this?

I want them to be wireless and the Xbox 360 ones would be great as I can customise them to Orange and white or orange and black to match the build.

Thank you.

you can get a receiver for about 10 bucks to make a 360 controller work wireless. i LOVE the 360 controller even though i never owned an xbox :)

 

-i dont know if the receiver can pick up on 2 controllers...-

Yeah, apparently that works with 4. Awesome, thanks

 

"Receiving range up to 30 feet with 4 different devices."

 

Are there anyones that work with the Xbox One? These receiver devices?
