    I continue to buy this product even though I know it is going to break within the next year. Have had bumper problems and sticky A button upon purchasing multiple different Elite Series 2 controllers. Ulitamately if you still want the advanced controller features, you'll learn to deal with the controller and consistent returns.

    Saved money when needing a new Elite 2. Had the accessories so this saved me the need to buy the more expensive elite 2.

    A must have for an Xbox gamer. They made a lot of adjustments from the first series. I love having 3 presets now, as well as the extra trigger locks. Being able to adjust the joystick tension is amazing!

    I love this controller!! I play more aggressive when using this controller and having more control in my slides and jumps without lifting my thumb on the sticks.

    Just a regular controller with a fancy name

    Don’t let the stars fool you, it is a great product, the thing is that because of the price and the actual usability of the controller makes it impossible for me to give it a better rating. It is a luxury item, and it can help you go pro, but’s that’s it. Other than the back pedals it offers the difference between a regular controller and this is minimal. Both controllers will get stick drift and if you are no good at the game, the controller is useless.

    While I usually play with a mouse and keyboard, if you’re making the move from console to PC like I did, this controller is a must have for FPS type games!
