    I bought this controller to play on my pc because I’m no use to play on keyboard. I would say this controller is a much better than the Scuf controller on quality. I have been using this controller and both thumbs switch hasn’t tear like the scuff. One cons is that price/value have to be lower down a little. After all I’m amazed playing on pc with this controller.

    I can't go back to using another controller. The trigger locks and rubber grips make a big difference.

    History of remotes I've used: Razor wolverine ultimate Razor wolverine Xbox elite 1 Various standard xbox remotes The Elite 2 far surpasses all of these remote with its customizable triggers and analog sticks. The new and improved paddles on the back make for better ergonomic handling while they are attached. The improved bumpers are a great step up from the elite 1 which I have broke in more than one occasion just from wear n tear. Buy and enjoy!

    I tried other controllers including Scuff and I believe so far these controllers are better. They seen durable able to tweek the resistance some on each stick which is a plus. Connectivity to PC seem to be alot better than Scuff as well. I recommend these.

    I was hesitant to purchase this controller based off the reviews, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. I honestly cannot find a single flaw on this controller. I’m not sure how Microsoft or anyone else could top this. The price is absolutely worth it in my opinion.

    This controller is just totally awesome. Fully programmable and will take ur whole gaming experience to a new level for sure!! I must say, though the programming part of it is definitely at a higher level capable understanding. I would recommend watching the associated video of this product if it’s still offered through Best Buy website and not recommended for younger children.

    A button not registering

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have bought 2 of these controllers within 4 days of each other, both of them from Gamestop brand new out of the box. Unfortunately both of them were plagued with the same problem. The A button would not register 100% of the time as I discovered while playing Halo. My character would not accurately jump. I went into the controller settings on the dashboard of the Xbox to watch the button feedback while the buttons are being registered. The A button would appear when pressed and disappear while also pressed. All of the other buttons would remain registered and appear on the screen. The A button was the only issue I had with both of these controllers. I'm hoping I was just unlucky and purchased a bad batch. Its a very comfortable controller.

    Great controller, very comfortable while playing games for hours. The paddles add a nice adaptability to any gamers experience, allows for a smoother gameplay with how you’re able to program the buttons, I will continue to use this controller for the foreseeable future!

    Love the controller. I have had everything except the scuff controller. I am a heavy gamer and use the controller for games like Fortnite, destiny and gta5. The response is snappy and I can change out the joysticks at any time depending on what game I play. The p1-p4 buttons on the back are comfortable and even if you drop it the don't fall off. The settings for the controller on the Xbox are simple for anyone to understand and yet as complicated as you want it. You can adjust the curve set presets for different games and many or other people. I only gave it 4 stars because the click on the left joystick just went out on me. I have been gaming for 5 months between me and my 3 kids for probably 5 hours give or take and it held up better then any other controller I owned. It is covered under warranty so I am getting it fixed but I would definitely and I am going to buy another.
