Any one here use or know if a wireless Xbox 360 controller will work in FS2004? Works fine in FSX, but just checking before I install fs2004 again.
Thanks!

I don't believe it will, I think that is just an FSX feature.

I highly doubt it would have a strong enough processor or gpu to run it lol.

Actually, the Xbox and PS3 have better graphics cards and processor than some PC's. I know a lot of people now that have installed Linux or similar on them. It can be done.
