    You'll be just fine with the regular controller. This might be one of the most overpriced video game accessories I've ever purchased, even at a reduced rate.

    Katie instantly went up due to the trigger adjustments. I'm coming from a PS5 controller on PC. I got to get used to the rest of the other features but I really like it

    I purchased this after returning the hori fighting stick and it was the best decision i made. The D-pad just works better for me when playing street fighter 6.

    Controller works fantastic! One slight problem is the y button likes to double press during rocket league. But other than that it works great!

    I just bought the series x bundle and wanted a more high tech controller and this is it ! In my opinion this is better than a scuf custom controller . Between the added accessories and design of this controller you can’t go wrong .

    Gift for grandson who has CMT that effects the nerves in his hands. This controller has increased his ability to be competitive and he now enjoys game playing and communication with game players world wide. I understand it is compatible with the new Xbox coming out in November.
