Subject: What would work better?

I am Katsu Kage, an assassin trained in the art of stealth. I was on a recon mission when I discovered a blue box hidden among some rubble. Once I entered the blue box it had taken me to a land far away. It was strange and fantastic! There I met PatikaVoom, the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen. She showed me this land, then returned with me to the blue box. She called it a TARDIS and seemed to know how to work it. We left together and have been on many adventures, with many more to come!

I have Halo 2 for PC but am used to using a controller when playing Halo 2. (I have always been a console gamer...) I am just no good at using the keyboard for a FPS! I am looking at two options right now...

1. I could buy an Xbox 360 Controller for Windows.

or

2. I could buy a Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows and use the controllers I already have.

What do you think would work better for Halo 2 PC?

And are there any other options I am not listing that might be better?

I'd get the Receiver. You'll have multiple controllers instead of just one wired one.

I was wondering this myself, as I just invested in Halo CE and Halo 2, and well... My keyboard setup is utter -blam!-, making it pretty impossible to play these without a controller without getting a massive shoulder cramp. So! *thread saved*
