Bought this along with an Xbox 360 Elite Slim, took it home and was puzzled as to why it included a dongle that had to be connected to the console. Plugged it in anyway and watched the machine completely lock up. Restarted, tried again, same result. I had assumed that the software that had come along with the remote was to install the device on a Windows PC as it was supposedly compatible with both the PC and Xbox. So I put the disc in only to find that the Xbox console couldn't read it. Did a little research afterward and discovered this controller is actually and Xbox 360 for use with Windows PCs only. See the related products for the controller you actually want to purchase.
What's great about it: Just like any other Microsoft manufactured controller.
What's not so great: Mislabelled as an Xbox controller when it is intended only for Windows PCs.
