In the middle of me doing stuff online and making videos; I do a lot of video games and I have an XBox 360. And this is one of one of a couple of kinds of controllers they make. This is obviously the Wireless Version coz there's there's no wire. And this is the official one by Microsoft and believe it or not these are like 25 bucks a whack. Which uh I guess that's that's like the price of like I guess an XBox now a days from the old XBox. Um I mean 25 bucks that's kind of steep especially considering that here's my biggest uh grypothum is that they take double A batteries. So you know you can buy this and you gonna buy batteries for it and then they're gonna die and you're gonna buy more batteries for your keeping on spending you know if you're big time gamer this might end up like a hundred bucks. You count batteries. And that's pretty crappie which is why I always prefer just plug it in to the system I mean it's not like it's gonna kill anybody; I mean it's kinda hardship over and its white. I mean blinding white actually. So that's that's the big problem. Um however it is it fits in your hand perfect. It's like ergonomic to the max. And it's got the trigger buttons and it's got the regular color buttons here. And of course uh you got start back when you got the joystick takes the directional pad. Uh overall I mean the controls and the precision is button-on. But then again it takes double A batteries they're so rechargeable packs so if you're gonna end up buying the wireless kind of controller you really should you really should go for the recharge uh battery packs or buy some rechargeable batteries. Otherwise yours gonna end up spending a lot of money on batteries for this. I mean batteries they'd probably give you uh like a few; I haven't probably about twelve solid hours of game time. Uh I mean that's like half of a day. But I know some people who spend all day playing uh their XBox so they might burn up two batteries in one day. And you know most times you buy them packs of four; so it might not last you the weekend if you like extreme gaming. So uh the the wires that i mean the controls that are not wireless they cost a lot less than the ones that are wireless. But if you buy the professional pros- uh system bundle then you get stuck with the wireless of course and then that's Microsoft way of making me pay for it. And not only is your system probably explode on you you have to buy double A batteries. So if you get stuck with this then buy a rechargeable pack but if you have a choice I would always take with the classic uh controllers that you plug into the system.
