    Great controller, but it’s ridiculous that you only get a 7 day free trial of backbone+ after spending $170 on a controller. At least give a year free or something.

    Absolutely happy with the purchase. Glad I went with the Xbox version. Ps versions have to be on the same internet. CANNOT PLAY AWAY FROM HOME OR SYSTEM. Xbox is 100 percentage remote anywhere gaming. Input lag on some games not all
