I am 99.9% sure the wired controllers for the retail XBox 360 are standard USB. There is a small panel on the front of the 360 with standard USB ports. Chances are you can plug in a mouse and keyboard and have it work.


They are USB controllers. The only difference between the PC XBox controller and the wired 360 controller is a CD-Rom with drivers.

As far as keyboard compatibility, I have my Playstation 2 USB keyboard plugged into the 360 right now. It can be used for text entry on the system. Not sure if any games can use it though. Right now I'd say no for Kameo and Need for Speed, but both are games I'm interested in playing on the controller anyhow.
