    The controller is so much more solid and feels better in the hand than the standard controller. I don't play a lot, but I think it is definitely worth the extra money.

    This is clearly the highest quality controller I have ever purchased. The four star score is only due to such a high price tag. It would be nice to see it offered in conjunction with a console at a better price.

    For the most part this controller is better than any controller out there! However, it is hard to justify the price different versus just a regular Xbox controller... it is nice to have but is also unnecessary

    This should be at most a 100$ controller. It is very sturdy but ive seen some friends who mash buttons find a way to ruin it so it is not 100% indestructable. Price needs to be lowered.
