 It's cheaper than the Battery Alone May 30, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have purchased two play and charge kits. The first I bought along with my Xbox 360 Pro. Later I decided to go with the Quick Charge kit. When my nephew got his Xbox 360, I gave him a battery and the USB charge cable for his wireless controller, so that left me short a battery. It was actually cheaper to buy a play and charge kit than just a battery alone. So if your just looking for a rechargeable battery, buy this instead, save a few bucks, and get the charge cable for free! The play and charge kit works pretty well, it takes awhile to recharge a battery. If you play a lot (like me) and have the money, go with the Quick Charge kit. That way you'll always have a battery hot and ready to go when the gaming jones hits.
 I think there are better options May 25, 2008
this works just fine but i'd suggest getting a wall mounted AA battery charger for your wireless controller rather than using this wire to recharge. The best part of this package is the battery that comes with it. You could then buy the 360 battery recharger that lets you recharge such batteries. It allows you to charge two at once but only comes with one so the battery in this is useful. That charger also frees up a usb port as it connects into a power outlet and recharges much faster. I found myself never using the wire in this package because I didn't do my research before I bought this. So there are 2 better options I think. But whatever works for you is what matters.
Does the job April 30, 2008
Overall this product is fine. Since I often forget to charge my battery pack until it dies, it is great that I can the charger into my controller and continue playing rather than running to find batteries while being fragged over and over while disconnected. The battery has a long life, even after almost a year of use I still can go an entire weekend of continuous gaming without charging.
The only complaint I have is that the portion of the charger that connects to the contoller/battery pack is a little touchy. Like an old Nintendo cartridge it has to be in the right position for it to work. The green charging light will not come on if the connector is completely in or not in enough. Not enough of a problem to not recommend, but not good enough to warrant a 5 star rating.
Play and Charge April 28, 2008
This is great idea. It comes with the charger and a rechargeable battery. Definitely beats buying batteries over and over. It will charge your controller while your system is off. In order to do so, you need to first have the system on, plug in the charger and then turn off the sytem, and it will charge using the "trickle effect".
great charging tool. April 20, 2008

This is a must have with your 360 and a controller.
You can plug it in via USB to your Xbox 360 and charge the included battery pack while you play your game.
You can also remove your battery pack, and plug the cable directly to your 360 for wired gaming (so your controller won't shut off while you are in the middle of that hired driver Forza race.
This charges via any USB port on your 360, your computer, your cable box, or your dog (if he has included USB hub).
I recommend buying one of these, then buying the Quick Charge Kit. Then you'll have 2 battery packs, the quick charge dock, and a USB charge cable.
