    I've had to return two of these over the past two years because the bumpers would just start failing. You basically need to have the geek squad warranty unless you want to deal with Microsoft.

    I like it better than the Turtle Beach. Doesn't need an extra dongle to get it working, just connect and go.

    Excellent controller. Love the interchangeable sticks and the adjustable vibration and trigger! The texture of the grip area is incredible. The price is high, but totally worth everything that comes with it.

    Best controller ever made

    The best of the best! Great for shooters where you need your hands on the thumb sticks. Easily map buttons to wherever you want. Build quality is fantastic. My series one broke and they wernt making that one anymore so I had to wait 4 months for this and use a standard controller while I waited. It was a big adjustment in the games where I was so use to using it. I couldn't even remember what button did what! Highly recommend!
