    I will only buy my controllers from Best Buy utilizing the Geek Squad 2-year warranty, because they will not last that long anyways. This is my third Elite Controller. The others failed due to irreversible stick-drift. For such an uber expensive item, I wish they would address critical failures like stick-drift and button sticking. If not for that, I’d give it 5 stars.
