    hmm...so no cable to PC?

    Thats interesting...might just get me one of those, hook laptop up to TV and do a bit of fake consol'ing. Been meaning to play Dark souls anyway.

    Is there a way too hook up a Xbone controller to a laptop wirelessly? Googling suggest not without a dongle...

    Your Googling is correct. XBOX controller doesn't work with Bluetooth, but DS3/4 controllers do.

    hmm...they're more expensive than I would have thought. About a grand. :/

    Will need to have a think whether thats worthwhile

    Have no experience with a Steam controller; I have been using my wireless 360 controller for years now and it still does the job.

    I do not wish to discourage trying new things, but if you're uncertain or in two minds about buying SC, rather play it safe and use what you're used to.
    Perhaps in future you could invest in the SC, maybe as a back-up controller.

    C'mon man, you're living the life overseas. Might as well splurge on a controller, as CoL-wise it's not that expensive for you.

    I prefer the Xbox (360 or One) controller for PC.

    However the Logitech F710 (wireless) and the F310 (wired) are not bad either

    Unfortunately I must report that the muneys don't grow on trees here either. But yeah...will probably be able to justify it after I finish my PC game backlog...so possibly somewhere round 2025.

    I've got a Logitech controller to sell if anyone is interested. It's wireless and I never actually used it. It's a Logitech F710. It came with my computer which I bought second hand so no box for it but it was bought in December from Takealot and I've got a copy of the invoice.
