    It's a great controller but I prefer the Razer Wolverine V1 over it for the price.

    Excellent customer service and an excellent extended warranty. Don’t be a fool get the extended warranty on all electronics. We have had to use it a few times in the last 2 years in various electronics and Best Buy has always treated us right on the replacement!!!

    Not worth the price!

    This is the 2nd Elite controller I got within 6 months and the joysticks are sticking again to the point you can't play. For the price, this is a complete joke. It's not a BestBuy issue, but a manufacturing issue. I don't like that I had to pay for a warranty twice ($120) to make sure I can replace again. At this point, I don't want another controller, I just want my money back. Not worth it, look at something else.

    Sometimes I want a weightier, firmer controller. And this thing does the trick. It responds and holds up well when tightly gripping and quickly pressing many inputs in a short period of time. Totally awesome purchase!
