    Had issues with it from day one but I didn't want to deal with returning it. Now it makes an awful rattle when it vibrates. It's just as much my fault as it is Microsoft's. The color scheme is cool.

    Defective Controller

    The controller, when it works, is great! However, I have never had an issue with a Microsoft xbox controller like I have had with this one. After 1 month of moderate use, this controller began to randomly disconnect from less than 10 feet away. I changed the batteries and the issue seemed to resolve itself, for a couple weeks that is. Now, the controller has completely malfunctioned. The d-pad no longer functions in the 'left' direction and the controller is unusable. I have tried replacing the batteries (again), re-starting the xbox and resyncing the controller. All to no avail. Unfortunately, I am pass the return date. I am going to see if my store will exchange but I think I am SOL.
