Reviews around build (4.55 of 5)

  • The controller is working fine with its authenticity and great build quality
  • A well built controller that will treat you right for a long time if taken care of.
  • It suffers from the typical 360 controller's issues, like a horrible D-pad, but its a somewhat old design by this point and that is expected, I only purchased this because my PC supports it
  • Overall, it is a very well-built controller, and works great
  • This is definitely a true Microsoft controller and is well built.

Reviews around quality (4.30 of 5)

  • The build quality is fantastic but Microsoft failed to insulate the cabling from breaking internally and shorting out
  • You might not even know the difference but they are made of a poor quality, or I'm just crazy
  • Good quality controller that feels much like the traditional Xbox controller.
  • Very poor quality controller, Microsoft needs to find a new manufacturer for this...
  • Great price for an authentic quality xbox 360 controller.

Reviews around game (4.25 of 5)

  • Being an avid PC gamer I was having issues playing certian games (such as driving) with the keyboard mouse combo
  • Liking this controller, but it is not ideal for The Witcher 2, Grim Dawn and other games where steam claims 'full controller support.
  • I fully recomend this controller and works well with most/all controller compatible games.
  • The left analog stick on my unit is slightly worn despite being brand new, but it's nothing that disrupts games
  • These are great for emulators, or to use for modern games.

Reviews around price (4.12 of 5)

  • The 360 controller was well priced and a quality option for mapping the emulator keys to, and it works perfectly!
  • I use this with my PC and not with an Xbox since I wanted a well built and reliable wired controller at a reasonable price
  • This is one of the best controllers out there for PC, especially for this price range (It's easy to take apart for cleaning or replace parts if they ever wear out).I love the wired controller more than the wireless (as with all my PC peripherals), I don't have to worry about replacing batteries/recharging, weak or delayed signal, it's cheaper price, cord is plenty long at 10 feet & it uses standard Phillips screws instead of torx security screws (unlike its wireless version).I just replaced my original 12 year old Xbox 360 controller for a new
  • She loves the feel and accuracy of this one, plus it's basically the same price as most rip off

Reviews around button (3.48 of 5)

  • 2 of my Xbox one controllers only lasted 3 months before joystick drift n sticky buttons started showing.
  • In other words, the button doesn't work smoothly just like other buttons!I always used the controller with caution and it has been less than a month since I bought this thing!I also found that Best buy sells x-box one controller at $35, so if you can go to best buy, purchase that thing instead of this crap

Reviews around wire (2.01 of 5)

  • Also, wired works better with things like windows and the steamlink
  • The wire on the controller is very long, which I like, and nothing about it has been faulty.
  • Don't bother with modern wired controllers, their all trash, the wire comes loose; the joysticks get stuck; and the buttons break very easily
  • The wire is slightly annoying, but during play I don't notice it (just when I have to plug it in and arrange it before play).
  • I've had a genuine, white wired one for over 9 years, still kickin' good, seen plenty of use with just my PC.Plug n' play with Windows 8 and up, or a driver can be downloaded from Microsoft for earlier versions of Windows

Reviews around connection (1.00 of 5)

  • Depending on the way I dangled the cord from the controller, the connection would die/reestablish
  • The connection where the cable meets the controller is very weak
  • I do not wrap the cord around the controller and the fault is not in the length of the wire but the connection where it goes to the controller
  • The wireless eats batteries and CONSTANTLY loses connection
  • This one has the break away connection too, so no worries about breaking your xbox if you trip over the cord.

Reviews around zone (1.00 of 5)

  • My main problem with the first was that the d-pad would work, but only sporadically -- as in I would press right and it would work, but then I would press up, and there would be a "dead zone" with no response; this would correct itself to move onto another direction, for example, up would work again, but then I would get no response from the right
  • The only issue is that configuring dead-zones for the joy sticks was pretty hard
