for the PC? yeah pretty much, you map the gamepad controls to keys on the keyboard, it's great if you've got a game that you want to use a controller on but it doesn't support it outright.
on the xbox however if you want to use a keyboard I believe it's detected like a USB keyboard on PC but only if the game supports it, so like for example if you've got an RPG you can use a USB keyboard to type in the name's of your character or use it for an online game... the keyboard on Xbox is much better for Xbox ports of PC games like doom where you can use a keyboard and mouse on the xbox instead of a gamepad/controller.
