    I’ve had a few of these over the years and there isn’t a better controller, especially for shooters of the ones I’ve tried. Probably all games to be honest, not just shooters. I would love to give it 5 stars but because I’ve had them malfunction, usually something small, I’ve always bought the warranty with them and have them replaced. Paying this much for a controller, I’m going to HAVE to be able to replace it when need be. Usually only happens once a year. Get the warranty and don’t hesitate to get this controller!

    Best controller ever made

    In my opinion, this is this best controller I have ever owned. I have had several systems & the wireless Wave Bird was the front runner until I purchased this controller. This controller is customizable & sturdy. It's not only comfortable to hold but the design is superior to the new Xbox One controllers & certainly blows any competition out of the water. I know that the price tag is steep but if you catch it on sale, you won't regret the purchase.
