Yes, you can use the Xbox 360 controller without the battery pack if you connect it directly to the console or PC using a USB cable. It functions perfectly fine this way!

Nope, it needs the battery pack to work wirelessly. If you want to go wired, though, a USB cable will do the trick.

Yup, I do it all the time! Just use a USB cable to connect it directly, and you won't need the battery pack at all.
