Now, I've had many people say that PS3 sticks don't work as well as Xbox 360 sticks for PC, can anyone confirm or deny this?

I have had no problem using PS3 sticks on PC ever, i see the most logical argument that people try to use is that xbox comes with windows hardware but the input and output is still using a USB and as long as your computer is of good quality and your drivers are up to date you should not have any problem using ps3 stick on PC

They both work equally well. Just going to need to get something like motionjoy to use it though.

All my ps3 sticks and fighter pads by hori work perfect with no drivers. Plug and play baby!

I have this stick and mainly play on PC, all I did was plug it in, dowload drivers, go into control panel > devices> game controllers checked it at RAP.N3. Went to my game and configured it and was ready to go.

I've been using the Rea Arcade on PC for a while and I don't have any problems with it.

I used mine to connect my router to Xbox 360 and it works fine. I don't see any reason it shouldn't work with a PS3. Hope that helps. BTW, I don't know if you care about the color or the cable. I don't care but as an FYI I bought, the grey cables as they were the cheapest and cables I got actually look closer to white than grey.

could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it with google.it could also be because the controller isnt very good and just doesnt work. could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it... » Read More could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it with google.it could also be because the controller isnt very good and just doesnt work. « Show Less

I know for sure that they do not plug into a ps3. Not sure about the 360. The headsets have regular sound and mic jacks that plug into the back of a PC.

Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows & Xbox 360 Console does but this one does not. It's only a few dollars more (at the time I'm posting) so probably worth just doing that.

After buying them for PS3, I was unable able to get them to work. I did a lot of research and found they do not have a driver compatibility standard required for PS3. Just as an fyi, I am an IT professional.

I bought myself a Microsoft Xbox wireless receiver for an xbox controller and use it on my laptop. It works perfectly:) the receiver has a USB that you can just plug it in to your PC and it works for all xbox controller. I don't know about ps3 controllers tho sorry.

With the PS3 component just being a lazy solder of a controller board, chances are it won't. PS4 dropped compatibility with the PS3 USB and controller.http://www.ign.com/wikis/playstation-4/PS4_Compatible_PS3_DevicesIf you want my advice, spring for a new controller or better stick. After about 8 months of use this thing finally broke down.

I have seen people use xbox controllers on the PC. They port over nicely and are probably the best controllers to use if you have a 360 already.

I'm using an Xbox 360 controller and it works perfectly, no hassle. Just plug in and that's it.

I don't have an Xbox 360 to test it on but if I had to guess i'd say its unlikely. The USB stick needs some custom drivers to run, whereas most audio devices compatible with consoles work with generic USB audio drivers.

It's a catch 22. Any PS2/PS3 wheel will work for Dirt, but you won't want to use it. There is significant steering lag with Dirt. Which means your going straight and your car is still turning, it makes for a very frustrating experience. Can't speak for how it runs on the 360 but on the PC it'll run good if you have a very powerful PC. Your best bet is to stick with a controller if you only have the PS3 version.

Hi! You can use any pc available controller. I for one, use the 360 controller sometimes but my brother uses his ps3 controller and it works nice with both.

I think it's improperly labeled as working with PS3s even though it doesn't work with ALL PS3s. I purchased this product and tried it with the old PS3 20GB model that didn't have WiFi built in. It doesn't recognize it, as I kind of expected (but it was worth the risk for $7). It probably does work with the newer models that have built in WiFi, although I don't know why you would ever find a use for it.

On the 360 it doesn't work because the console doesn't support USB audio devices so far. It works fine with the PS3, with all the features, but the thing is that you only get the voice chat through the headphones... regular in-game audio is still delivered through the TV.
