Wireless and USB Bluetooth Adapters
1. Step The easiest but most expensive way to use your XBOX controllers is to simply buy a the Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows
To use the PS3 controller on a PC, you would need an USB Bluetooth Dongle. Something you can grab for 2 bucks on Amazon:
Bluetooth USB 2.0 Micro Adapter Dongle
2. Step Apparently, Microsoft removed the official XBOX 360 controller drivers from their site and included them in the official adapter above, so let’s move on with using a PS3 controller instead. The only way to use the XBOX controller on Windows 8 without buying the adapter is probably to break open a dead XBOX and then use the parts to build a receiver that you can then connect to your PC.
