    A bit pricey but is one of the best controllers with how much customization you can do to buttons. Even down to the sticks. Controller still can be affected by stick drift as it doesn’t have Hall effect sticks.

    It’s astonishing to me how xbox can manufacture good looking controllers but then continuously drop the ball when it comes to quality. Over and over again these controllers eventually start to suffer from stick drift even when you’re casually gaming. The same goes for these limited time controllers. As expensive as they are, you’re still only paying for looks, you arent getting a solid controller for that price. If you want quality over style, best to avoid xbox brand controllers. Go for third party, more specifically, look for ones that have hall effect sticks. Those you wont have to worry about.
