    The paddles are so good. I got to warn you though. I have had to return to xbox using there warranty 3 times. Great controller but it breaks fast.

    Love this controller - it will genuinely make you better at whatever game you're playing. Quality is not great. I've had it for 8 months and I'm having severe stick drift where it scrolls so quickly I can't choose the option that I want. This isn't a situation unique to me - I know a couple others that have had it happen to them too. For something that costs almost $200, I expected it to last a lot longer.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
