    Best thing about this controller is ergonomics. Awesome grip and good weight distribution. The additional features feel gimmicky and never get used. My favorite controller

    Love this controller! Imo, far superior to all the microsoft brands. Just recieved my series x today, and it seems to communicate a little better than the one s it replaced. Having 3 sons, 8 the oldest, 3 youngest, you have to take some extra precautions to protect your cord(mainly the not hardwired usb c on the controller) usb and usbc arent known to survive long in my house. They always break devices, by dropping them and damaging the female side of the usbc. Only way it could be better imo would be if the usbc were eliminated, and the cord be permanently part of the controller, like all the old consoles.

    I got this for my fiancé for his birthday, as his other one became messed up and wouldn't function properly. After countless hours of looking online, I turned to Best Buy where they had one in stock and quickly grabbed it, purchased it and he was able to have it on his birthday. Felt like a huge win in my book because this man doesn't ask for anything. He deseves the world and so much more.

    Got it on sale. Great headphone options. Long cord . Solid buttons & build quality. Great for my computer and good backup for my series X. Sometimes u get tired of using batteries so I just use this half the time especially at night with the headset. Hate cords but in this case, it’s tolerable. Very happy I got it. I don’t care about the extra buttons but alot of people love them.

    Amazing controller. I didnt like the delay from the wireless controller and i definitly didnt want to pay 400 for an elite remote and the 2 programmable button on the back are more then enough to aid in mw2

    Turtle beach recon

    Over all if you are looking for a solid wired controller this is all you need. Ive been gaming for over 20yrs and nothing compares to the turtle beach recon. Has the feel of a xbox 360 but the power of top gaming controllers. The first recon i bought was on lunch of the controller and now with Black Ops 6 its the only controller i trust for top of leader boards.
