    I had a series 1 elects controller and it didn’t last long. Bumper, stick drift and grips all started to become an issue a year into using it. I had hoped that the series 2 controller would be more durable, but not even a year into using it I’m already needing to replace it due to bumpers sticking and stick drift. And no I don’t play bumper jumper

    Mapping couldn’t be easier. I love the taller right stick that is interchangeable for FPS’s like COD. Adjustable trigger depth is a nice feature as well! I use with a Series X console.

    This controller is hands down the best ever made and is an Absolute must have BUT be sure to purchase the replacement plan because these controllers have real quality control issues.
