    My son is very happy with his new controller. The only reason for a new one is he wore the old one out. He likes these controllers best.

    Mmmmmm so silky smooth, the grips feel like melting butter on a house on the prairie, the buttons like a smooth babies bottom. Seriously the Xbox controller is the one to beat it was like they modeled it just to my medium sized hands.
