this controller sucks. I thirnk Vortax (silver and black,, the cool one) controller is slightly better.

Trust me, wait a bit, get some more money and buy official controllers. They sure costs a lot money but that worths. That will last longer :D

p.s. If u want ur buddies to play with it, What if the responceness of the controller is bad and then it will be like ur friend firing now and the bullet will come out 5 minutes later ;) then they are gonna blame the Xbox :(

The thumbsticks are too big on these controlelrs. I would stick with official controllers.

2 words= eBay... or maybe thats one word.
