    This is a good cheap controller. It will do the job well, just doesn't last very long. You can get about 14 to 15 months before you need to replace it.

    Device is easy to to set up and easier to use. Setup was basically plug and play. Vibration feedbak was a plus. I have no complaints about this controller.

    After buying a controller that had no turbo, I looked for one that had turbo capabilities. This one did. It was the only controller at the store also.

    I've been very happy with the game pad for use with some of my older games, but I have had several new games from the Microsoft store that don't recognize it.

    It takes a while to get it programmed, but too much time, could be much simpler, but just ok

    This thing has THE worst deadzone, people want to say the dualshock 3 controller has a huge deadzone for the analog sticks? HAH!! They haven't played with this thing, it DOES NOT register movement until its tilted exactly 50-60% if not close to a full tilt. Just save the money, unless you are legacy gaming with this controller. 1.0 out of 10 don't even bother with it. Some how sponsored by SKGaming...

    Minecraft with JoyToKey from the hackers

    Find JoyToKey.exe from the hackers and use their default Minecraft setup from their site Minecraft now works better on a PC then on XBox One. You can also modify any button to any key you like for all keyboard-operated PC games. The simulation for joystick controls is sharp and very accurate. Don't waste money on higher priced units This is nicely made and the kids haven't broken it. First class unit so cheap in price.

    I was told to buy this instead of logtech version by BB rep, it doesnt work well with Neverwinter online, and trade it away to my nephew and got logtech to work better. so i am not happy to buy wrong brand. (just off topic) this same BB rep just had almost made me go for lay-away for Asus PC gamer tower, decided to look for reviews before decide. i have been turn down few times in past.
