The controller will work without a battery pack, only if the cable is connected. To charge the controller and use it wireless, you will need a battery pack

No. It will work like a wired controller, even if you don't have a battery pack in the controller. It will recharge a rechargeable battery pack if you have one. If you're using a regular battery pack, I guess it would save your batteries, but probably not recharge them.

Yes, I already have the rechargeable battery pack my cord just stopped charging them.

Yes, it's a standard microsoft battery, works great with any microsoft charge kits like the duel black MS charge station.

I bought mine with a rechargable battery pack so I didn't have to buy batteries, sorry.

It did come with the battery pack, when i bought it! And, I must say, 2+ years later, I'm STILL glad I bought the rechargeable battery pack/charger system!

No, the charger includes the rechargeable battery pack. No need for batteries.

The original Xbox doesn't have a power brick like the 360 or One. The "power supply unit" is inside the console and would be found under that title but you would also need to know if it's a one or two row connector.

I used this to use with a Xbox 360 controller, it definately worked on powering the rechargeable battery pack.

No you have to have the rechargeable controllers already. This is just like the cord but two spots for the controllers to sit in. I wouldn't get it though. Mine was a POS. I just threw it away

Yes!! My son's use it all the time to recharge the batteries for their wireless Xbox controllers. Definitely worth the money to buy. I've EASILY saved money from not having to buy batteries. I've replaced charger once after a few years of fairly heavy use and its still worth it after another purchase. Hope this helps with your decision.

No need to purchase other pieces for this to work. This plugs right into the front of your 360 controller. If you've got a rechargeable battery pack in the controller, it'll recharge that while you play (thus, "Play & Charge").

It should work once you have usb port on the xbox. It comes with a charging cable

Battery packs are not included. Just a small battery for the wireless controller

You do not need to purchase anything for it to work on your Xbox 360. These type of headphones do not work with the Xbox one

This is only for PS3 controllers. They don't come with battery packs. All you have to do is push the controller into the slot and it charges. It's really easy.

Mine came with a rechargeable battery pack. May need to contact the seller.

Since I don't have a play-and-charge kit, the following is my informed opinion. Yes, it will work assuming you have the rechargeable batteries installed in the controller. I looked at the bottom/back of my wireless controller and noted it has the input for this (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox360/accessories/batterieschargers/xbox360playchargekit). Finally, this is from Xbox 360's support page describing the use of the kit: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/accessories/how-to-use-xbox-360-play-and-charge-kit. Hope this helps.

Yes it has the battery pack. We bought this item Christmas 2011 and it still works like a charm. Sometimes the game will freeze or act like it doesn't want to work, just unscrew the battery pack and take it off and then reaasemble and itn will be fine again. I just bought another one last week to put with the game in a prize redemption game, it came with the battery pack also.
