    Best controller on market for the mix of support and features. Terrible terrible build quality. I have gone through 6 of these. All for the same reason of bumpers breaking. I can now fix the issue myselfz but it requires taking the front plate of the controller off and most people don't want to do that. Nor do they want to buy isopropyl alcohol, i just happened to have some cause I built my PC.

    controllers a necessity for gaming. Its just too expensive, and its guaranteed to break, so get yourself that replacement plan. Im on my 3rd elite 2, as the RB/LB keeps breaking, or the little adhesive pads inside behind the triggers gets stuck and the triggers start sticking. This should be prices at $99.99
