You need:
Xbox > USB cable (any type, can buy em off Ebay or make your own if you know what you're doing)
redcl0ud's awesome drivers: http://redcl0ud.com/files/XBCDv107.exe
and my custom button mapping layout: http://fsclan.net/cyberslam/ShauningtoN/ShauningtoN_Xbox_1_H2V_Controller_Mappings.xgi
Found this out myself after an hour or so of trial and error + deadzone tweaking.

Moved to here, and :awesome:

I happened to make a USB adapter for it years ago, so I could dust it off and try it out. :D

I don't see how you would plug your controller into a USB cable... I watched the video (stopped with about a minute left but skimmed through the rest) and it never showed how to get it plugged in. Maybe post how to do it? That would be appreciated (some +rep mbmb?).

Xbox controllers are USB.

It's pretty much cutting an xbox cord, a USB cord, and matching colors.

Cut up the controller cable and a USB cable... or the way I did it, just cut up the little break-off end. Works with lots of controllers instead of wrecking one.

Hey is the xbox 1 controller have sensitivity in movement, (e.g you can walk slow -> run) In Halo PC when I used the xbox controller even the slightest movement made you go into a full run

Do you get autoaim?

(sorry if you mentioned in the video didn't watch all of it)

No, and no.

First one is possible in campaign, though.

In halo 2 vista, yes with the xbox controler you can go from slow walk to run and yes Halo 2 Vista picks the controler up as a 'Xbox 360' Controler and enables Auto aim on it.

so basically, plug in a controller, and you get instant autoaim?

yeey way to balance a freaking game.

hey, im new to this but i tried wiring my xbox controller and my apple ipod usb, i stripped both and tried to connect them then use electrical tape to make them stay together. My computer recognizes that there is a new device but it is unidentified, then i installed the drivers from here thinking that would work but when i tried to browse my computer to install the drivers for the controller it says it was not found. How do i get my controller to work?

Read the first post, that helps. If you did, then why didn't you download red's drivers? Whatever, here they are:
