Title: xbox 360 controller hack?
Post by: shateredsoul on April 29, 2010, 02:25:06 pm
If I wanted to play xbox 360 games on my panel, do I have to do a controller hack or is there another way? Can i have a controller hack and ipac on the same set of buttons and joys?

Also, about how much does it cost to have someone do this for you? I know I read about someone selling hacked controllers, but I can't find that person.

Yes, I offer controller mods.

If you want to use both together, you will need some sort of data switch (like a DB25 switch) to isolate the 360 pad from the Ipac.

Nothing against Haruman and what he's doing, but why assume the guy wants to buy and not to build himself, so maybe link to DYI first? Or if that's all you can offer at least a short disclaimer that's all you got, otherwise it looks like the only solution.

...because he asked.  It's funny you used the word "assuming". Before commenting, how about reading the entire message.

ps. HarumaN's hacks are top-notch.

Hmm.. a switch you say? I'm not sure if I want to setup an xbox 360 that badly, but i'll think about that. Do you use wired or wireless controllers for the hack?
