Computer games are rapidly losing their popularity. Of course, because game consoles are now one step ahead. And the main thing is not even that manufacturers create games first for them, and then for PCs, but that managing the game is more convenient on the console. Computer in this regard is not so convenient. The keyboard is now neglected even by the most avid gamers. But there is a way out - the joystick "Xbox". What's the catch? Nothing. This gamepad can be connected to a PC and enjoy full control in the game!
Now on the market there are several types of joysticks. This is a wired model, and wireless, the old release and the new. Joystick "Xbox 360" for PC is suitable or old model, or wired. To connect the gamepad without a wire, you will have to search and download drivers separately. Naturally, the Xbox joystick itself should be original, not a Chinese fake. Why is that? Because only the original Microsoft model can provide really good work.
What is a gamepad? What buttons are there on it? What are the "chips"? New models are equipped with vibration mode, which allows you to fully immerse yourself in the game. Buttons in old and new models are no different in functionality, solely in design. So, the first generation Xbox joystick has colored control buttons (A, B, X, Y) made of simple plastic, and subsequent generations have some differences. The letters can be either gray with black or familiar colors, but with a slightly modified design.
Joystick "Xbox" of any year of manufacture, to order or without, has triggers under the index fingers. They are conveniently located, they usually work flawlessly, they are not needed in all games. Where in the center of the device there is a silver cross (well, or the initial βXβ), there are also start and return buttons. This is the standard for any model with any design.
The joysticks themselves on the gamepad are conveniently located. So itβs nice and convenient to play both for an adult and a child. Joystick "Xbox" for PC is no different from the same for the console. This is the same gamepad. Unfortunately, wireless models cannot be connected to a PC. There is no boot disk in the kit, it is difficult to search for drivers on the web. The Bluetooth adapter does not work, but the standard cord with the USB plug works stably. Moreover, you can connect the "Xbox" joystick right during the game, without putting it on pause. Everything is installed automatically and in seconds. No additional manipulations are required. Wireless gamepads are popular with those players who prefer consoles, because it gives space and the ability to play from anywhere in the room. Without reference, for example, to an armchair or sofa.
Novelties of the gaming industry appear primarily on consoles. But not every gamer is ready to abandon a PC monitor or buy expensive game consoles. Microsoft has taken care of its users, making it possible to use gamepads on any of its devices where there is suitable compatibility. It is really great to play your favorite games on a whole new level, having experienced the whole essence of the game from and to. Especially if you have in your hands a stylish "Xbox" joystick with a unique design and pattern.
