No sir, this controller has no USB slot, whereas the wired xbox 360 controller is usb, so it can connect to your computer.

Yes you can ! :D

The old xbox controller is a USB controller.
Just the plug shape change.

You need to cut the wire, cut a classic usb plug and connect the cables respecting colors.
You will then need to install the correct drivers.

Here is a link that explain you the tip :

Didn't know about this.. I would get a 360 controller anyways, cause the old xbox controller doesn't 'fit' as nice I dont think with the sharpish edge on the bottom..
