    It's a great controller, but way overpriced. The back triggers will wear down after a year.

    Every stat driven gamer knows the cost of a maximum build, Even if it only is 5% better. Will it change gaming forever? Probably not, But it is a welcome edge to better play.

    My husband and I both bought one of these. They’re a little more sturdy than the gen 1 elite and a tiny bit quieter when vibrating. I like that a lot. No complaints. I think everyone should buy one.
