    So far, the 360 controller works great on the PC

    I probably didn't need to (since I use XP), but I went to WindowsGaming.com and downloaded the 360 drivers and tried it out on the NFS:MW demo (PC version).

    When you go into the controller settings in the game and you switch from keyboard to controller, it actually says Xbox 360 Controller for Windows. There was nothing to map, since it was already set like it is on the 360 version of the game.

    Hey thanks for the info, i've been searching for a PC controller for years as I have a whole box of rejects sitting in storage from Logitech, MS etc...so it appears my quest has finally ended and finally there can be some sort of standard for Win XP gaming at least in terms of a controller!!

      so if i can just go to that site, theres no point in shelling out the extra $5 for the one in the pc box over the one marked as the wired controller...

          It includes the drivers on a CD. Not sure if anything else is on there.
