how does it connect to your pc. it comes with a dongle? or via bluetooth?
You need a special receiver which this deal doesn't come with.
have to buy a dongle. unless you get the 'for windows' controller pack
You need the dongle. It doesn't come with the XBOX 360 Wireless Controller. You can only get it with the XBOX 360 Wireless Controller for Windows. Like this one: http://www.ple.com.au/ViewItem.aspx?InventoryItemId=601486
Once you have one dongle you can use other XBOX 360 Wireless Controllers though.
can yiou buy it seperately.. otherwise wit would seem the dondgle is 17$ more
@Gavman:
This one is for $35:

Can't comment on the dealer though.
From the item description it's just a wireless controller without the USB receiver? It could be pretty good value if it includes a controller, battery and USB receiver.
Fore those that have controllers and batteries then here's a USB receiver for under $10.

I've been using one for years and years and it works great with multiple 360 controllers connected to my PC.
Can buy the receiver for $11 inc shipping on ebay if you like.
@c0balt: I don't know, the description and the title says it is for PC as well and doesn't mention need to purchase an extra adapter.
However, as I have not seen this item, I cannot be sure about what the package includes.
If anybody is interested, they better contact the dealer.
actually, i am just going to put my brand new controller with the dongle on gumtree for sale, but i am not allowed to post the link here.
Paid $2 on eBay and works great ;-)
Any PS3 controller deal?
Bugger, the wired controller seems to be sold out everywhere in Brisbane and the West side.
Don't get wired. Not worth the hassle.
If it's for PC, the Wireless Gaming Receiver is less than $10 delivered on ebay.
Damn, can't find a wired controller within 200km of me :(
Wheres the wired one? cant see it on dick site?
wired one is either not in stock anywhere or doesn't show up properly on dicks sight.
Comes up with no picture
Yet everyone upvotes this 'deal' like crazy.
Well, the wireless one was available for click'n'collect for me when it was posted…considering they generally go for upwards of $50 new, and I paid $26 for a preowned one a couple of months ago, $31.98 here would have been a crazy good price!
no stock everywhere
What would I need to buy to get the wireless controller working on PC? And do I need multiple for multiplayer, or does it act as a hub?
Please ignore. Google answered my questions. I guess the only other thing is if I can a sub $10 cheapie on Ebay, does anyone know if their performance is any good?
The generic ones work fine…my Deal Extreme one has been going strong for years:

According to Whirlpoolians, the ones from this ebay seller are decent too ($8.74 delivered):

If what I recall reading is true, the official MS one actually sucks - it has a fuse design flaw which breaks after a year or two, pretty common. The third party ones work flawlessly. Someone please correct me if wrong, I don't know for certain personally.
I have the genuine dongle and found no problems after frequent use for about two years.
Good price. But as always with Dick there's no stock nearby. Who could price match?
seeing as it's an 'online only' price you might have trouble. but you could try Big W or JB
As usual with dodgy Dick, this product is magically unavailable for delivery and magically completely out of stock in South Australia.
I bet when this special ends they will 'find' a bunch of stock for delivery and collection.
Thanks caitsith01 I have removed the wired controller from the post.
Btw, weren't you told to acknowledge when you found bargains from other bargain websites:

(Plus your other deals from today)
@Monty — if you did spot the deals from other websites (other than the merchant), please attribute the source.
wish i saw this earlier, i guess it's only $7 diff it ended up costing me but still
Thanks MM :-)
If you get the wired for $20, it will natively work with basically all PC games out of the box.
I got mine for $60 a few years ago from JB. Well worth it!
