Yeah but you need to buy a wireless receiver to go with it because the controllers don't use bluetooth. They're pretty cheap, you can order one off microsoft.com if I'm not mistaken.

Are you talking about the plug-n-play controller?? Cuz if so then no, it won't work. For some reason it only charges the controller and doesn't work as a connection between computer.

Ok, thats true. But I heard that they can get a lot of interference and might not work with some models of computers or certain versions of windows.

the easiest thing to do is buy a hardwired controller from gamestop or your local gaming shop its plug-n-play then and works good ^_^
