I feel like I should give MS some credit for the Xbox One controller. It's a very high quality controller, IMO.
- It doesn't flex or make any creaking noises when you're squeezing it really hard (during extreme rage situations).
- The triggers have rubber bump stops. Believe it or not, this simple “feature” alone makes the controller feel much more premium to me. My aftermarket Xbox controller doesn’t have these and the triggers make a “cheap” plastic sound when you press them quickly. It’s almost like the entire controller is resonating at a high frequency.
- The joysticks are “tight” and precise. However, they do tend to accumulate some slop over time.
- It’s a comfortable shape overall.
- SmellyGeekBoy 10y agoI'm a PC guy these days but I still use my launch Xbox 360 controller long after the 360 it came with died (mainly for platformers and GTA). I'm not a hardcore gamer by any means but it certainly saw a lot of Halo 3 and Burnout action and is still going strong today. I've looked at the Steam controllers and while they look great, I can't really justify the purchase as I don't think it would be enough of an upgrade for my occasional usage.
