Xbox 360 Wireless Controller + PC? Is there a dongle?
 
I thought I had remembered seeing a USB Dongle for the PC which allowed X360 wireless controllers to be used with the PC, but in looking around the interwebs (as well as EB and Futureshop), I've found not a thing.

Was I on crack, or do I have to buy an actual game controller for my PC?

If you have the play'n charge cable, you can just hook it up to the pc with the usb

Here is what you are looking for.

Plugging in a xbox control through a plug n play cable only charges the controller.
