Xbox 360 Controller: My Review

After the horrible abomination that was Microsoft's original Xbox controller, and an attempt to recover with the "S" controller, Microsoft has finally redeemed themselves with the Xbox 360 controller. Oh yes, this contoller feels as good as it looks. It's smooth looks and styling allow this to be the best feeling controller ever. Even in my small hands this controller is perfect.

I know you are saying that the 360 controller is the same as an "S" controller, but think again. Unfourtunatly you cannot understand what I mean until you actually pick this controller up. This means rushing out to your nearest Bestbuy, or Futureshop, or even Walmart. The feel of this controller is worth it.

So what's so amazing about it you ask? Well there are a few things. First off, the weight. This controller is LIGHT. Like, incredibly light. At only 0.61lbs, or just under 10 ounces, this controller is not vastly, but noticably lighter than the "S" controller, weighing in at 0.8lbs, or just under 13 ounces, and it still has rumble. And yes, it is noticible. It is also slightly smaller than the "S" controller.

Another really good thing about this already amazing controller is that you can use it on PC, if you have USB and Windows XP. So if you like this amazing controller, but don't want to spend $399.99 CDN for the core system, you can use the wired controller on your PC. It sells for about $50 CDN.
