    The controller, yes is a wired controller and does everything a controller does, but hey, it's a good controller. A bit sensitive with its D-Pad and stuff, but it's still works really nicely

    I mean for the price it’s okay for what it is. I just expected the controller to last longer. It ended up getting stick shift on the LT button and completely stopped working. You are better off buying the real Xbox controller because you get what you honestly pay for.

    This Controller beat the other models due to the fact that it has the OEM buttons and no extra triggers or buttons added that will throw off your OG game control memory
