You can use the keyboard and mouse. I recommend it actually. Makes it easier I think. I will say that you need a fast cpu and good graphics card or it will be more difficult as the pixels wont flow as well and it will b jerky.

You can definitely use the keyboard and mouse. I did that for most of the game until I finally bought a controller.

I tried to use an Xbox controller but it was really weird (for example, clicking in the stick will pause the game). But I've only tried Assassin's creed one I don't know if its better on assassin's creed two but in my opinion its much easier and better using keyboard and mouse.

I don't have an Xbox so I don't know about using the controllers, but you can play fine with just the keyboard and mouse!

The receiver, which is the small nub that plugs into the USB port, is for both the keyboard and mouse. So yes, even if you only want to use the keyboard, you still need to plug in the receiver.

You might have to download the Microsoft drivers that are required to use a basic wired controller. Considering at the base level, it's just a controller. If you google "Microsoft driver 360 wired" you should get it. It's a small download that'll let you use any wired 360 controller.

Short answer: Yes. Long Answer: I just tested my Game Stop Brand Xbox 360 controller with usb converter on my Windows 7 64-bit PC, and it worked perfectly. I personally think the game is significantly easier to play with a keyboard and mouse, but yes, you are perfectly capable of playing with the controller. (Other operating systems may or may not work [I have no experience with Windows 8 nor previous versions]). If you have a different operating system, I recommend looking it up on google, or asking another person before you buy the game. P.S. If you need help setting up your controller, just let me know, or there may be tutorials online.

I have an Xbox One and there's nothing on it that uses the 2.5mm or 3.5mm connector, the controller uses a flat usb style connector. I'd post a photo but I don't think you can do that here.

The controller comes with a USB adapter, so you do not need anything for PC use! I also use it for PC games only.

Like other have mentioned, you can hook up a keyboard and mouse with the USB port, it also has bluetooth that works great that you can connect things with as well.

X-Mouse Button Control. I loaded it on my Windows 7 and it is working for non-gaming purposes. Thanks to Rawr for the advice.

As long as you have a USB 2.0 and you should be fine. Just when you go into the key bindings hit the button on the controller, I found it was as simple as that.

No you can use the key board and mouse but a joystick makes it a lot easier. If you using windows I have all kinds of problems. iT SHUTS OFF in the middle of flights. If I knew when I purchased it I would not have wasted my money.

Yes, the controller is wired and has a USB. I use my controller for my desktop to okay games on Steam.

The unit that communicates with the mouse and keyboard is included. It plugs into the computer via a USB connection. You can use either keyboard or mouse or both. You can plug a conventional mouse or keyboard directly into the computer in addition to the wireless pickup. If you are using a reasonably current operating system, you will not need to manually configure either the wireless or the additional device.

You can set the controller using the xinput, and it read the dualshock as an Xbox controller. This is helpful because most games and PCs read Xbox controllers.

I assume you can play with the mouse/keyboard, but you wouldn't want to. If you don't have a controller, I'd pass.
