Xbox 360 Controller

Is it legal to use controllers, especially the xbox 360 controller, during the competition other than the ones given in the KOP.

Re: Xbox 360 Controller

Legal? Yes. The DS works with HID joystick type devices. If Windows doesn't recognize the device, install the drivers that allow Windows to treat it as an HID.

Re: Xbox 360 Controller

As Greg said, it is legal, and I assure you it will work, since we've been using that exact controller for the past two years.

Re: Xbox 360 Controller

The wired Xbox 360 Controller is legal. The wireless one is not.
