Hi, I just sold my xbox one so now I don't have a console to play with friends. However, I'm wondering if I can use an xbox one controller along with an xbox 360 controller both connected by USB in order to play some local MP games (probably fifa).
Do I need special hardware? I know I can use my xbox one controller w/o problems, but I'm not sure if a 360 controller is an option (cause of incompatibility issues regarding drivers). If not, I believe a friend of mine can get a ps3 controller. Would that work too?
Thanks in advance.
 
No special hardware needed for xbox controllers, as long as they aren't wireless, just plug them in and windows will download the drivers for them.
If the drivers don't download here they are:

The problem is whether the PC game supports local co-op or not, most don't.
