Garbage controller
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller started having “controller drift” about a month after I bought it. The under buttons get in the way. The sound enhancing had little notice on my headset. Don’t waste your money.

WORTHLESS.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not worth the $$$$. I’ve only had for 2mths and it’s already got the auto moving left drift. Oh and Best Buy won’t let me return it. So needless to say I won’t be shopping at Best Buy anymore.

2nd time, same problem
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second time I purchased this controller and only after a week this 2nd one just shuts off on its own. The first one I bought did the same thing but took 3 months for this to start. It’s something with the cord connection to the controller. This time around I payed for the in store warranty so hopefully this issue gets solved.
