Hey guys, just had a quick question. I have a Saitex X-52 Joystick/Throttle and i was wondering if there is some way to hook that up to my Xbox 360 to use for the game? I have it hooked in now but it is not showing up and not working. although, the lights are on. If you could help itd be great.

Thanks

Nope.

The 360 only works with officially licensed controllers, and requires a security chip indicating that license be present.

How can it be bypassed? I have a Saitek Cyborg USB Gold and wouldn't mind not buying a totally new joystick just for xbox.

That isn't really overriding.

Yeah, you can basically hack a licensed controller to make use of it in any number of other kinds of controllers.

I have built a couple arcade sticks that way. You aren't really moving the security chip to make another controller compatible. You would be replacing the controller board of one controller with that of another.

It isn't at all what I figured the OP was looking for though.
