    are you talking about this

    http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/hardware/x/xbox360rechargebatterypack/

    If so thats a battery pack you can use with your xbox360 wireless controller and it charges through the usb port on the console.

    otherwise you're looking at buying AA batteries all the time or using a seperate AA battery charger instead of just plugging the conrtoller in when it goes dead.

    that explain it??

    I used the rechargable (through USB) battery pack and find it great.

    I bought about 12 rechargeable batteries and charger for the same cost as one play and charge kit. They last longer than the kit does and I charge 6 of them on rotation for two controllers.

    Yes, but with the Play & Charge kit you can use the X-Box controller on a PC!

    no you can't, well unless you buy the PC wireless gaming reciver, the controller still connects via wireless, the USB is only used for power.
