Compatible with Original Xbox games on the 360?

[James]

Hello there! I have recently become interested in purchasing a macro controller from this website. However, I have a few unanswered questions in mind:

1. Does the controller work with Original Xbox titles running on the 360? (I know it sounds like a stupid question since controllers technically just send signals, but I'm just making sure.)

2. Can I record precise button combinations such as this? (I realize that this is an Original Xbox and controller, but from personal experience I know it works on the 360 just as well.)

3. Is it possible to use this controller for PC games if I buy a wireless controller receiver?

If you're wondering what I'm interested in doing with the controller it's the link I posted above. I want to be able to program the Halo 2 sword-flying combination(s) into the controller. They aren't hard to learn, but it's sort of difficult to do these combinations consistently and this website's controllers definitely have the best reputation for macro controllers, but unfortunately all the reviews / videos I find are for CoD games. Thanks for reading this post!

You are correct, the macro controller will still work on the XBOX360 console when playing original titles, as you said, it's just sending those button and stick signals to the console.

2. Can I record precise button combinations such as this? (I realize that this is an Original Xbox and controller, but from personal experience I know it works on the 360 just as well.)

Yes. The digital buttons on the macro controller (by digital I mean everything except the triggers and the joystick up/down/left/right movement) replicate precisely. The trigger analogs and joystick analogs replicate well, but are not any good for doing things like trying to record yourself running around a map or driving around a racetrack. There's enough variation that if you play back this kind of macro your guy will run into a wall. But for the macro controller you posted in that link above, macro controller will nail this perfectly every time.

3. Is it possible to use this controller for PC games if I buy a wireless controller receiver?

Yes.

Macro controller was designed specifically for short combinations like the sword-flying combination you posted. You've come to the right place!
