Being a bit of an ‘older' gamer, I do have older consoles in my possession, and it was surprising to be able to use a Series X controller on an Xbox 360, or a PS5 DualSense controller on my 360. While I don't use this console regularly, I had to test out whether it would work. Primarily I tested multiple controllers on my main console, the Series X. Four console generations, one controller device. That was impressive. DISCLAIMER: The Wingman XB2 converter is NOT licenced through Xbox, and as such, is technically not approved for use on the console. Specifically, some of the features that the adapter allows you to do potentially put you at risk of being reported for cheating, and as such, I am not recommending this for multiplayer games. I want that to be clear from the start. Using this is at your own risk as it may go against one of the Terms of Service: " Use unauthorized hardware or accessories" I'm a huge controller nut, of all kinds. Console, racing, flight – if some games work better with a different kind of controller, I'm probably going to get one. I will sometimes switch controllers between games, or even switch just to relieve pain points in my aging hands just so I can keep playing. So being able to keep using my favorite controllers is really important to me. I'm also one of those who prefers using controllers on PC games that support them, if it suits the game. I will not use a gamepad for a first person shooter – period. But a JPRG that originated on console? I'll almost certainly use a controller in that case. And I know I'm not alone; console ports to PC have been more popular than ever, and the Xbox has really been doing very well this generation. While setting up and using the controllers with basic functions was relatively easy, trying to use the added functionality of Wingman XB 2 wasn't as simple. The XB 2 is capable of enabling rapid fire/turbo on any of the controller buttons or triggers. This was quite the process though. Start by pressing ‘VIEW' and ‘GUIDE' buttons (or your controller's equivalent) to start this process. This process was the most frustrating to accomplish and took multiple attempts to be successful, regardless of what controller I was using. Plugging a controller in, I was very pleased with the way that, straight out of the box, the Wingman XB2 dealt with the controllers I plugged in. The PS4 controller I tried first went in and just worked, and the PS button was mapped to the guide button, and everything else was where you would expect it to be. I fully expected having to tell the device what controller I had attached, but it dealt with it effortlessly.

Ultimately though, I can't in good conscious recommend the adapter solely because I wouldn't want to see anyone get reported or banned for using the tech on Xbox, not that it would, but better safe than sorry. Using my numerous controllers on PC however does seem to appeal to me more. Another method one can use to play Xbox Series X/S games with PS5 DualSense is by using the Xbox Cloud Gaming service.
