    I was looking for a gaming controller for when I choose to play games that a keyboard and mouse would be a difficult thing to use on certain games. Saw this and I really like the buttons on the back and after using it after a while I don't even touch the button on the front cause the back ones feel more natural for me and very responsive. Definitely a good buy.

    Bought this to replace the series 1 Elite controller. Happy with it so far. Hopeful it doesn't have the issues the 1st series had with stick drift and the rubber grips pealing off.

    This is a must have for my x series. Hard to go back to a regular controller. The quality is excellent, and definitely better than the first generation.

    Love this controller!! Overall it works great and feels good in the hands for long hours of playing. If you are a heavy gamer I would recommend purchasing the warranty with Best Buy.

    Not quite the revolution in controller design you're hoping for. But you can assign Keyboard keys to the buttons too, for those games that allow M+K and Controller play at the same time. I don't regret my purchase yet. Being able to reload or use a melee with the back buttons, in certain games is pretty awesome.

    Very good upgrade from the first one. The removable charging dock from carrying case is a very nice feature you can either leave it in the case or take it out, very nice feel to the controller as well

    Its kinda a pile of crap but works better then any scuff controller on the market. The bumpers will stop working after a year. This is a known issue. Some people with new controllers have had issues with the A button sticking. If you want a scuff type controller this is the one to get. But beware and get the geek squad warranty. It will eventually break
