Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Quality - Long Lasting
After much careful thought and research, we decided to go wireless with our Xbox 360. What an awesome decision that was! I waited on a review to make sure that the wireless controllers all functioned properly, held their charge and could be played at all angles/distances up to 30ft from the TV and then some. To be on the safe side, I ordered one charge and play just in case one of the controllers went out during play. To date, it has not been needed. The controllers hold their charge just fine for all our gamers - and they tend to play up to 6 hours at a time. As to the quality of the controllers ... one was subjected to an English Springer Spaniel trying to use it as a chew toy and survived. Another was dropped on ceramic tile- when one player threw a fit- and showed no signs of damage. All 4 are still going strong months after use. I would definitely recommend going wireless for all families - especially if you have pets or young children running around that can trip on the cords. It's great for storing neatly away and not having to worry about cords being wrapped too tightly or getting tangled up. Amazon did have the best price at our time of purchase. I'm sure it's still the best deal now.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - First class piece of junk
This is the worst controller I have ever used. It looks great on the outside but didn't even last a year. I got this for Christmas and within 2 months the left bumper broke. I still used it up until recently, now everything moves to the left even if you're trying to go forward or to the right. I have the original controller that I have had for going on two years and it still works fine. Maybe mine was an exception since I see it got pretty good reviews, but it was an expensive exception.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great buy!!
Great price and great product, my Grandson says it is wonderful, one of the best he has had!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - its a good controller
I'd love to give this five stars, but i can't. As much as it costs, the play and charge kit, in my opinion should be included. The battery life though is great with batteries lasting as long as 20 to 30 hours sometimes. The controller is comfortable to use and feels nice in your hands, not slippery, and not gritty either, it will stay in your hands no matter what game you're playing, even if you're sweating like crazy. On an even better note, it's quite a durable piece of equipment, i've dropped mine countless times, but here's the downfall. the battery case is weak. if it splits, the controller will stop functioning well, a shake or jerk will turn it off and you'll have to turn it back on. You can glue it back, but will take the chance of ruining it if you're not careful. One more problem is that the controller has a very weak d-pad, it's not sensitive to be of any use in a game, it seems to lag and will often seem to ignore quick subsequent commands. Seeing as though you tend to use the joystick now more than the d-pad its not a problem so much. But menu navigating can be irritating if you use the d-pad. It also makes fighters sluggish and problematic. But the layout makes for great shooters,and great racing titles. Unfortunately there is one more issue with this controller. You can't leave it sit. What i mean is the controller needs to recieve a command within 10-15 minutes or it will shut off, that can be problematic while waiting for an event to pop up in some games or viewing replays and the like. The console will freeze up and exclaim the controller is missing and must be restarted before continuing. its a great controller, but i'd recommend the wired one, if you need more space than the cord can give then this is a good option. just jiggle the stick every once and a while to keep it from turning off when you need it on and are watching something.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Halo 3 wireless controller
When it comes to Xbox 360 controllers there are no controllers out there that are as eye catchingly beautiful as these Todd McFarlene drawn Halo 3 controllers. The glossy smooth surface of the controller is a sheer joy to hold and the thumbsticks (provided it is new) are tight and precise provided that the controller is not abused. And by abused I mean anything short of dropping a freight train on it (my Fiancee's brother in law fell off a chair and landed on it with his rear and nothing happened to it.) Aside from its beauty, the controller is extremely well built, there are no connectivity issues and there are no problems using this remote and three other wireless remotes at the same time with your 360. A must have for die hard halo fans!
