    I love the feel of this controller. The extra buttons have a bit of a learning curve, as well as setup. This controller adds plenty of customization for the hardcore gamer.

    I love this controller. It seems a little expensive at first but it is truly worth the money. The one downside is the RB and LB buttons are all one piece inside of the controller and tend to break.

    I use the paddle buttons on the back of the Elite controllers for "A" and "B" buttons. This makes it easier to move and look around while jumping in games. The Series 2 feels better built than the first version and I like the charging dock.

    I purchased this as a gift for my son's birthday and he loves it. He is on 13 years old but has already customized the additional levers/switches for CoD: Modern Warfare. It also arrived days ahead of scheduled to my home address. We are extremely satisfied.

    I had the original MS elite controller and THIS is how it should have been. My old one’s grips were coming off, the stick drift was crap, and the bumpers broke twice....so far this one seems a bit sturdier and the grips seem more integrated...we’ll see if it sustains
