compatability question

i have a wireless dealy thing for an old xbox, would that fit onto my xbox 360 and work properly? i know i have it around here somewhere but i dont want to look for it if it wont work, and i really dont want to spend 100 bucks to play xbox live with that hookup thing they got at target

I haven't tried it, but everything I have read says yes, it will work. And if for some reason it doesn't, you can find the wireless adapter for the 360 much cheaper than $100 (it was marked $71.99 @ Best Buy last week), and you can also use a wireless bridge to connect, which you can purchase for anywhere from $30-$50+

It might take two tries to get it to work, but it will. And, it won't eat up a USB port like the official Xbox 360 one. Spoiler alert: This is our pick for best option, based on its combo of cheapness and convenience, if you can find one.

Yup, it should. Certainly won't hurt anything to plug it in and try.
