    Can I use this to connect xbox 360 controller to Galaxy S3?

    Amazon.com: SANOXY Micro USB Host Mode OTG Cable Flash Drive SD T-Flash Card Adapter FOR Samsung GT-i9100 i9100 Galaxy S II 2 GT-N7000 Galaxy Note: Cell Phones & Accessories have a wired xbox 360 controller. Would like to use a physical gamepad for shadowgun. If this cable doesn't work, what else could I use?

    Or, could I connect with a ps3 controller and bluetooth? Only problem is that I do not have a ps3 controller. I would rather use the 360 controller if this is possible.

    Merged with the existing thread about USB OTG cables in the Galaxy S3 Accessories forum.

    Yes, you can use a wired 360 controller with that OTG cable. I have one of those exact cables. Take a look at this post on the first page of the thread that details my quick tests with the cable. A PS3 controller will work while connected with a USB cable as well, but it will not work over Bluetooth without root and an app from the Play store. I also have one of these, which is the same thing except it has a straight plug instead of an angled plug. As mentioned my post about testing the cable, the angled plug makes using the cable difficult if you have a case on your S3 (and with many cases, it's impossible to use). Unless you have a specific use for the angled plug, I definitely recommend going with the straight one.

    Several of the reviews for both on Amazon say they don't work with the S3. I'm not sure what's wrong with the cables those reviewers received because both of them work with my S3 without any problems.

    Amazon.com: JKase(TM) Micro USB OTG Host Cable to USB (2.0) Adapter for Samsung Galaxy S III / S3 , Galaxy S2 i9100 / Samsung Galaxy Nexus / Samsung N 7000 Galaxy Note (JKase Retail Packaging): Cell Phones & Accessories ordered this usb otg cable since it is listed as being compatible with the Galaxy S3. Will report back after it arrives and is tested.

    Do you think an Xbox 360 controller will work with Modern Combat 3 and Nova 3? Or how about Street Fighter and King of Fighters?
