![]() ![]() After a few minutes of installing drivers, my computer was ready to use the controller.Īnd so, to make sure that it worked properly, I loaded up Skyrim Special Edition, and took a look… I tested all of the controls of the game, and all of the buttons worked. When I plugged the controller into my Windows 7 computer, the Xbox guide button lit up, just as it used to when first connecting. The controller connects to a USB port, and can be used with an Xbox 360 (both the original and the slim version), as well as any PC that supports Windows 7,8, and 10. ConnectivityĪs you can clearly see, it is a wired controller, which is what I was planning on going for in the first place. For the length, the cord is a little short of 7ft, but considering that I plan on using this primarily on my PC, it’s just the right length for me. The cable is made of the typical PVC casing you find on pretty much any electronic device. This controller has a nice feel to it, just like the official controller. The controller looks like … well, let’s be honest, from a distance, it literally looks just like the original Xbox 360 controller, except with no Xbox logo branding. ![]() There were no instruction manuals included, but considering that it is a plug and play device, it is fairly straightforward to use! Out of the box, the controller comes in bubble-wrap packaging. Here’s my experience with the controller. And then I came across the VOYEE Wired Xbox 360 Controller. I’ve decided to take a plunge into third party manufacturers to see if I could find a cheaper one that not only does the job, but still has the comfortable feel of the official controller. I will be honest, it’s really hard to find the official Xbox 360 controller anymore, at least not without having to browse used game stores or eBay. And so, in my quest to find a replacement controller to use for my PC, I’ve decided to take a step backwards and look at controllers that could stack up to what I love in comfort gaming. They just didn’t quite have that ergonomic feel of the original Xbox 360 controller. These days, almost every controller manufacturer has tried to replicate the look, feel, and button layout.Īs we moved into the next generation of console gaming, I couldn’t help but feel as though the quality of the controller design fell a little flat. It was known for its legendary comfort, and pretty much set a high standard for many others to follow. This term is in my opinion the reason why Microsoft really hit it out of the park when they made the Xbox 360 Controller. But in trying to be unique, many companies try way too hard, often failing to recognize the most important aspect of any controller ergonomics. From the old NES controller to the multi-button Xbox controllers, things have really changed. It’s really interesting to see how much our controllers have changed over the years. My Rating: 9 out of 10 – Recommended Pros The VOYEE Wired Xbox 360 Controller is exactly the kind of controller I was looking for to use as a dedicated PC controller, but if you still play on Xbox 360, then this controller is a good cheap replacement for your older controllers. ![]()
