    Great quality controller, the buttons are all very responsive. Rubberized grips feel amazing, and the interchangeable pieces make it highly customizable.

    Great controller! The only reason. I didn’t give it 5 stars is that it drifts on occasion. I use it mainly for FPS games.

    Its fantastic when it works. but considering the release date of this product I'm on my 5th controller. I've tried a lot of others and none compare to this. I wish I had a more reliable option but I don't. RB went out 4 times and stick drift once.
