| Dec 14, 2010 at 20:16 | comment | added | Grace Note♦ | @NickT I was under the impression that, with the right cord, the 360 controller can function just fine as a standard gamepad regardless of needing specific support for it. | |
| Dec 14, 2010 at 20:07 | comment | added | Nick T | Microsoft's "Games for Windows" and DX/XNA APIs are a fairly strong force for a de facto standard. I've seen X360 controller support in games across several developers, usually when there is a console version as well. | |
