Quality Ossues
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice looking controller. Has a lot more weight than the standard controller. Love all of the adjustments (e.g. hair triggers, button customizations, paddles etc), love the textured grip. The problem is that the “A” button was sticking immediately on day 1. I expect better at this price point.

I would recommend this to a friendWorth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sure it is expensive but if you plan on using it for a lot or for a long period of time then it is worth it. It just feels better than the standard controllers and I believe it gives more control during gameplay.

Top of the line
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This controller is fabulous. It is ergonomic, has different lengths of joystick to fit your ganing needs. I give it 5 stars!
I would recommend this to a friendXbox Elite for the serious gamers!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best controller you can use for Xbox, also compatible with PC and fully programmable on both systems. Built in battery is a perk and carrying/ charging case is great for storing and keeping ready to go.

I would recommend this to a friendElite controller for the clueless shopper
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only got this model because I needed a replacement and my store was out of the "pro" version. When they say "core," they mean what you see pictured is what you get. The biggest draw to the elite controller is the customizable parts and additional mappable paddle buttons. None of that comes with this.
