More Than 4 Xbox 360 Controllers?

[Slottr]

Im having a get together soon and the group of us decided Gang Beasts would be a good, fun game to play because it supports 8 players.

 

Im having some issues understanding how to get to eight players with the Xbox 360 controllers. Will 2 wireless dongles work? or what about making  4 wireless controllers to wired using an adapter cable(if so please link me)? 

 

We can also use PS3 Controllers- Can we mix the two types of controllers, making each one individual out of the eight?

 

Sorry for the mother-load of questions, I've searched up and down but could barely find anything.

 

Thanks

Xinput, what xbox 360 controllers use, is limited to 4 remotes.

 

You can use 4 360 remotes and more PS3 remotes though. You can use 4 360 remotes and really any amount of anything other than xinput controllers

So if I have 4 460 controllers over the dongle, and 4 other PS3 Controllers connected via my motherboards bluetooth, i'm good?

Yep! As long as your PS3 remotes aren't using xinput.. I am not sure if they do.
