The difference is that instead of targeting a specific piece of hardware, this targets the Xbox 360 controller via its XInput interface.

Rejoystick is a program that maps keypresses on your gamepad/joystick/joypad to keypresses on a keyboard when you are running X. This allows you to use your gamepad to play games and run X (graphical windowed apps). There are two different parts to rejoystick, one is client-side, which runs on the gamepad, and the other is the server that runs on the host system (the machine running X). The client-side is a kernel module that communicates with the server via the network. You can use it either in your window manager or in standalone mode.
It works with any kind of gamepad/joypad/joystick from any manufacturer and even multiple devices at the same time. It is designed to be very fast and low on CPU usage, so you can use it even on slower machines. Some other nice features: Fullscreen mode automatically switches to full screen when a game loads, so you don’t have to play windowed games.
Any key or joystick can be handled by any of the six virtual input devices, and they can be set to ignore some keys or joystick buttons so that they will not mess with the emulation (for example, some emulators do not like it if you press “Pause” or “Select”). If a game is running below 20 fps, Rejoystick will automatically try to remap some “slow” keys, which will improve the performance of most games. Window
