Just in time for my sons birthday! Cheers.
But it's for yourself though, right?
For those interested, I didn't like the long paddles so I bought an additional 2 short paddles from eBay. They work in some slots (sitting loosely) but don't work at all in other slots. It took a bit of shifting paddles around with 2 genuine and 2 cheapies to get them all working.
If you're after extra short paddles, you're better off going with the genuine Microsoft ones - use the warranty/service chat to order some for the bargain price of about $20. :O
Great price. These make gaming a premium experience.
+Ve givenBut if anyone is interested, I found factory refurbished ones selling for $99 posted. Comes down to $90 with the eBay code. With case, accessories and 12 months warranty.
Doesnt say factory refurb at all, its done by the seller, ie not Microsoft. Its a complete crap shoot with what you would get.
For something thats $50 cheaper and only comes with a 3 month warranty - you may as well buy new.
This is where eBay return flexibility comes in handy.
Just checking, did you actually buy it and can you vouch for quality?
Is it really a premium experience? The build quality seems to be very hit and miss.
Compared to any other controller I've tried, it's very nice to hold and touch. I use it with the windows USB adapter. Love it.
Can these be used on PC for gaming as well ?
Currently using Xbox 1 controller with USB wireless adaptor.Yes, uses the same adapter or via USB cable thats included.
Thanks. Will pass. Will go for XB1 S deal and will live with same controller :)
Can justify that high price for the controller alone.
Yes they can.
Save some money and get yourself a Steam controller.
I dont know if I can use it as good as an xbox one controller though.
On a PC? far better.
Depends on the game obviously.
@Shwayne: BF1…
I cant play with PS4 controllers. I have seen Steam controller as well and I think it might take time to settle down on it.@Shwayne: Returned mine. Really couldn't get used to it. Standard controller still feels better for controller based games and mouse/keyboard for other types is still superior.
I guess if you keep using it you tweak it and get used to it.
@cnut: It's tweak town for sure, but it's vastly superior for most PC titles, especially the ones you can't possibly use a gamepad for.
There are very few genres where an Xbox controller excels over the Steam controller, but it does require you to configure settings quite a bit.
eBay told me that I just bought the last one.
doh! missed out AGAIN
Cheers OP!
