Xbox 360 Wireless Controller Reviews

Rating_5_rstar By: djmussell (20-Aug-08)      1 Week
Battery life is pretty decent, range is great, easy on the thumbs!
None

I bought a core system and immediately went out and bought two wireless controllers. They are so easy to store and you don't have to worry about tripping over cords or wrapping up cords to put the controllers away.

Comfortable, great range, perfect weight, never miss a beat (unlike PS3's bluetooth technology), works with Windows via a usb dongle called Xbox 360 Gaming Receiver
D-Pad isn't as precise as previous consoles (like Saturn, Dreamcast, SNES), no pressure sensitive face buttons

The strengths and weaknesses stated above pretty much sum up this entire review for this controller. As a Microsoft product, this controller is way better than its previous console's (both regular and Controller S). The only thing I can think of better on the original is it had pressure sensitive face buttons. I'm not sure why MS decided to remove that feature. Maybe to save a few bucks? Aside from that and a slightly off D-pad, this controller is considered to be one of the best ever released! Go get one if you haven't done so already.

accurate wireless control from several feet away. No loss of functionality (e.g. rumble), ability to use batteries or a recharable battery pack
Somewhat low battery life (~30 hours), pretty expensive for controllers if purchased at retail price.

Great controllers. While the wired controllers are a bit lighter, the freedom you get from a wireless controller is pretty great. You won't realize until after you try a good wireless controller, but wired controllers feel so inadequate after having used a wireless controller for some extended amount of time. My only real complaint with these controllers is that you cannot get them in some kind of color. They become much harder to track when they're all white. Having the option of a white, red, green and black (or blue) controller would be nice, that way you would be able to find out exactly which controller is missing, or you could figure out instantly which controller you were using before every got up to get the pizza. Again, minor complaint, but I suspect that everyone that tries one of these controllers will like them. As an aside, I would recommend getting the quick charge kit + extra battery pack, or the play and charge kit wih your controller, unless you have several rechargable batteries.

that it is wireless up to 30 ft any direction.
the way it sucks up batteries. Need rechargeables

The controller it self is great but Microsoft made a big design flaw by placing the on and off control (Round X globe) right in the center where the back and start buttons are next to it. On some games it gets paused by accidentally pressing the on and off control. It sucks to interupt some games.

Precision and comfortable controller, no wire and batteries last a long time
weak vibration

It was hard to control at first when using sniper in Halo 2 compared to the controller S for the old Xbox. It Takes time to get use to it. But once you got a hang of it, it's very comfortable and accuracy to controll.
