  • Fantastic Controller, Consider Extended Warranty

    Very solid controller, miles better than the original which I still own, the only issue is the Quality Control on this controllers. Mine came with a broken Right Bumper that registers twice, and the sticks have drift. All I have to say is if you're going to be serious about this controller consider the extended warranty for a little more so you can return the controllers for the next 2 years.

    Perfect for players looking to take their game to the next level. Supposedly these are subject to stick drift more than any other controller, but so far I’ve had no problems.
