Microsoft will bring Xbox One controllers to PC in 2014

@Valen_Ca Good point, key thing I can think of is the 360 backward compatibility as that wouldn't be needed for XB1. Also Win 8 may need an update to support the new driver, who's to say the XB1 is not running a newer version of win8 like the upcoming 8.1 version. Also may not be worth hassle of saying it works on win 8 only to have win 7 users bitch - may be best to wait and release simultaneously.

@Unfallen_Satan There is software out there already, i use ps3 controller on pc for some gaming. google and you shall find

@Unfallen_Satan i think they can't because as far as i know,microsoft has banned all controller that are not Xbox related, the same thing is with the Razer Onza,why is it Xbox design, because if its not i wont be available for PC

@Jedilink109 It's mind boggling isn't it? A company with tons of skilled employees. Instead (likely) some unpaid enthusiast will give us a driver first. Amazing how inefficient big corporations tend to be.

@broly1800 lmfao whatever, R.I.P your narrow ignorance whats to hate... honestly oh let me guess you'll say the Kinect... awesome! hate something YOU NEVER TRIED YET! :) lol go buy a foreign *** console then... lol I'll be on Xbox One with dedicated servers, cloud support, and multitasking, pc apps syncing to my xbox one, Microsoft office on xbox one.... must I go on!! I mean Skype... its a closed done deal! Microsoft wins hands down... sony's will always be the underdog to Microsoft, especially company size way and budget wise :)

@Sorciere_basic either way their still getting your money hater :)

@Sorciere_basic still going to buy an xbone just so I can throw it away...saving the planet everyway i can

@Sorciere_basic LOL, nice one.

@Yulaw2000 I wouldn't be surprised if a Linux driver for the controller came before the official one.

@Yulaw2000 Don't worry, Windows 8.1 releases this October. :)

@Moonco All XB1 controllers are wireless/wired. You plug in a USB cable and it disables the wireless radio and charges the controller. Also, the D-pad is supposed to be way better (and yeah, we've heard that before). It's a true cross with pressure clicking pads under it, no more floating disc.

@punkrockjack Who actually games on OSX? :) My fancy $1,500 iMac sucks for gaming.

@AlphaWolF_J PS3 controllers are meh.

@AlphaWolF_J LOL the 360 controller is probably the most used controller on the PC (except for keyboard and mouse of course). Game interfaces are designed around it.. and I use one, it works perfectly. I can not ever see the point of getting a different controller.

PS3 controller triggers are shit and for many the left stick is in the wrong place, G25 isn't even a standard controller so I don't know what you bring it up for.. same for Mice and Flightsticks. All of those, except the PS3 controller, are used for DIFFERENT THINGS.

Don't bring the console war into the PC controller arena. It's obvious that's what you are doing with your first sentence. 360 controllers are an extremely good piece of kit to have on your PC desk. Kicking back with your feet up and your xbox controller, if the game allows it, is much much more satisfying than sitting with your claws out in the toilet seat position all the time.

Here's hoping the XBone controllers are just as good.
