I am having many friends over and we wish to play games on PC, there will be just one PC available but 8 controllers connected to it. Looking for recommendations!

I created this set up specifically to play killer queen black, but if there are other arcade style games that are fun and can accommodate the player count I would love to know about them!

Can you even connect that many controllers to one computer without a bunch of dongles?

I was skeptical but it turns out my one receiver for xbox wireless controllers can support a bunch and friends are saying Bluetooth for PlayStation controllers also works. That said I also have USB splitter for all the USB controllers

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
