Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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 would recommend this to a friend In the Game
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want to be in the game, then the elite series 2 controller is for you. I did have the black one and the rubber is coming off it. I had it for 3 years with moderate game play. So, I picked up the blue one for a very reasonable price. Once you go elite, I doubt if you ever go back to other controllers. If you can, get one and get it on sale.

Sharp
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Enjoy the elite controllers just too expensive and always broke. This controller holds up well has a good way to it. 
I would recommend this to a friend I still suck though..
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This newest version of the Elite is great! It's much better than my other Elite. I've had zero connection/audio issues so far. I love the shorter trigger lock adjustment. The paddles are shorter too so I won't have to take a grinder to them like the first version.

Much more precise...
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Elite controller is very high quality. The first time you hold it in your hands, it is obviously much better than the entry level controller...... then you actually use it! Much more precise controls! A little price, but you will like it.

More worth it than I expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is pretty great, works very well and the battery lasts long enough to play for hours a day.
