    Got this controller for my partner for Christmas as they use it on their PC for Xbox gaming on the computer. I’ve always been a fan of Xbox controllers and this is no exception. Went ahead and got the protection plan for it but will likely not to use it as the quality of the controller is pretty dang good. Can’t speak for it to use on Xbox systems but would imagine that it works pretty great.
