    Ive bought two elite controllers and both failed after a year of moderate use. These are much cheaper and last longer

    One of the most coolest controllers ive seen. Totally made an amazing gift for my girl. One thing i do wish is that best buy double checks these, i bought 1 and opened it in the car and it was clear that someone had previously bought it and just returned it and there was sign on the outside of the controller being used. Best buy exchanged it no problem. But still

    Very good controlled for the money. Unfortunately, controllers are designed to have issues so you are forced to buy new ones. In my opinion, Microsoft designed them to break with minimal use. First Gen Xbox controllers still work to this day.

    The controls have fast action with the vibration of the dual shock giving the feel of being in the battle. Long battery life and long hours of playing prove this controller a great add on. The color reminds of a midnight sky which fits many of the games I play.
