Hi guys,

Microsoft just released a new wireless/bluetooth controller. Stock landed today and I thought what better way to say welcome than with a free bluetooth dongle for those that need them :)

Xbox One "Crete"Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller with **FREE** Bluetooth Dongle @ £49.99 inc VAT https://www.overclockers.co.uk/xbox...ler-with-free-bluetooth-dongle-bu-017-ms.html




The new Xbox One "Crete" Wireless/Bluetooth Controller bundled with a free bluetooth dongle

Only £49.99 inc VAT.

Look the same as the older model tbh that you can get for £10 on auction site. I wouldn't buy one of these for that price when I could buy 5 of the normal ones that are exactly the same.
 
Don't you need a microsoft receiver for using the old controller on a PC? if so the bluetooth is a great idea as a lot of PC's already have it anway and with this a free dongle is great (that's what she said :) )

Anyone with an old wireless controller can buy the adaptor and make it work with their PC:

They are out of stock currently but on order and be with us this week or next.
 
Having tried this, the PS4 controller is so much nicer. Original Xbox controller was good, but I don't know what they did with the new one, just doesn't feel right to me somehow. Wish Sony offered better PC support though, because essentially the PS4 one gets recognised as an Xbox controller with the third party software you get.

I think it's just the original 360 controller was so good and everybody spent so much time with it in their hands that anything else felt weird. When I moved to PS4 I hated the Dualshock 3, not because it was bad but because it was different.

Sorry if the product description was too long for you to read :P This new model comes with bluetooth so that you can use it on more devices. The older ones may be £10 but if you can't use them with the devices you want to use them with then they are actually worthless.
 
These currently aren't supported out of the box by Steam Link but given that they are Bluetooth devices I expect support will come soon. When that day comes I'll be sure to pick one up so I can drop the cable.
