    Really great controller, paddles on the back of the controller help out a lot and really dig the ps2 style joysticks that can be put onto the controller.

    Great controller, it is a bit pricey but so far it has been holding up better than other aftermarket controllers. Response and feel are good and the customizable buttons are a really nice feature

    A much needed upgrade to the regular controller. The ability to change out the thumb stick lengths is nice, but I feel they needed a middle ground. They give you two options and I feel one is too short and the other too tall. I'm used to the regular controller with shorty control freaks on the thumbsticks and they just about in the middle. Other than that it's a great controller. Would be nice if you could program the paddles to something other than the already preset buttons, but I'm sure they limited it to that for competitive play. Buy it...you know you wanna

    If you play call of duty or any FPS this gives you a huge advantage. Plus the Xbox accessories app is awesome. If you got $150 to drop its worth it.
