Here's why:
* Xbox 360 controllers use a standard USB connection: This means they are compatible with any Xbox 360 console regardless of region.
* No regional locking: Unlike some other gaming devices, Xbox 360 consoles and controllers are not region locked.
However, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:
* Power plug: You'll need a UK to Australian power adapter if you want to use the controller with a wired connection.
* Wireless compatibility: If you are using a wireless controller, you may need a compatible wireless receiver. The UK version of the Xbox 360 console came with a different wireless receiver than the Australian version, so you may need to purchase an Australian receiver separately.
Overall, you should have no problem using a UK Xbox 360 controller in Australia.
