    Excellent little controller. I use this exclusively for PC gaming. My first was an XBox 360 controller that I absolutely loved, but it died after 3 or 4 years of heavy use. I tried an XBONE controller but wasn't thrilled, and this is very similar but with minor improvements, such as the D-pad, USB 3.0, and some gripper surfaces and triggers. The 360 felt the greatest to me, but this is still a great controller for PC
