    Xbox controller was great. Did everything I expected it to. Unfortunately a little sour taste from Microsoft having to buy a controller after only 5 months of having my Xbox. But this controller with geek squad warranty will hopefully work out better.

    A good controller but they seem to get drag in the stick within 6 months or so. Be sure to take out the extended warranty, I’m on my 3rd one now.
