Hello, I want a gamepad for some PC games that I think would be more enjoyable with one rather a keyboard and mouse. I could just buy a wired controller for windows but that cost $40 and I have wireless xbox 360 controllers so I looked it up and they do make receivers, however, I can barely find them, it's like Microsoft stopped making them and I've heard some bad stuff about them but it's just $12. I want to get one but I looked up some drivers and the newest they have is Windows 7 and I have Windows 8? Does this mean I can't get this and have to get a wired controller for $40?
