Super easy! Just turn on your Xbox 360, then press the Guide button (the big X) on your controller to turn it on. Press the sync button on your controller (it's next to the left bumper). After that, press the sync button on the console (located next to the memory card slots on the original 360 or next to the USB ports on the 360 Slim). The lights should circle and then stabilize. Voilà, you're connected!

As someone who had to connect a dozen controllers for parties, just turn on your Xbox 360, hit the sync button on the console, then the one on your controller near the LB button. The lights will blink and then stay lit once connected. Easy peasy!
