    I am looking at getting a wireless controller & keyboard..So I am wondering which ones do you guys have and how much were they. I am going to use it for bioshock / gears of war and pretty much all my emus. :) I really dont want to go past 60 bucks but i am willing to bend.

    Microsoft's wired 360 controller can be used on a PC because it uses a usb connection, or you can get the wireless controller adapter and use a wireless 360 controller. The 360 controller will be well-suited for both Bioshock and Gears of War, though the d-pad might leave a bit to be desired for playing old games via emu.

    As for wireless keyboards, I would go with whatever form factor you're comfortable with.
