I am buying 4 of these to use with my computers . On uber sale at Fred Meyers there around fifteen bucks, witch is a steal for new 360 controllers. The case is thick clear plastic. It looks even better when you take it out of the clear package. (Witch is a feat in of itself) When I first held it I was disappointed that it was so slippery! There was a slick film on the new plastic, however while playing for just a few minutes the thin film wore off and the controller felt normal. I didn't like the plastic control sticks however got used to them quickly. (after the slick film wore off) The controls feel quite responsive and accurate, I played Nitronic Rush and had no problems at all. The cord is bright white and very flexible. Complete with a break away connector to protect your Xbox 360. The action buttons and triggers felt as good as the regular 360 game pads.

I don't think its quite as good as an official USB 360 controller however if your looking for something for your friends or kids to use this game pad is top notch for half the price.

Pros:

Great price $15 $25 (as apposed to $30 $40 for the official USB game pads)

Good buttons and triggers

Nice flexible USB connection cable with breakaway

Works easily with XBOX 360 and PCs

Good hardy, well built feel

Cool clear colors (Black & white, really Microsoft/Sony?)

Cons:

Hard to open packaging (Also not really a con)

Slippery film out of the box (Not really a con)

Plastic control sticks instead of rubber (OK considering the price)

Best Deals for Rock Candy Xbox 360 Controller - Pink

I was playing fifa, and I kept losing, so I did the smart thing and took my machete to the controller... So I was in the market for a new controller.

I can't use a wireless controller as I have a pc, so I went out shopping for a new wired controller. It seems like they don't sell official wired controllers in stores anymore, so I was forced, with much hesitation, to buy a third party controller. As most of you probably know, third party controllers are generally complete crap. However, I was surprised to find that this one is about 90% as good as the official controller. The joysticks are better than I expected, but still not as precise as official controller. But honestly, if you are playing a competitive game, and you want the best, nothing compares to the official controller in terms of stick precision.

I've had this controller for a year, after my original Xbox one died out. Works great, I like the feel of it better than the authentic Xbox controllers.

I purchased this to use on my Windows 7 PC for when playing games on Steam and it works perfectly. It is definitely plug-and-play, given I literally just plugged it in and the drivers immediately installed with no issues. It's clearly not as sturdy as the official controller, but it does the job and it does it well. The price is certainly right and the color choices are great. My only complaint is that the packaging is quite dangerous...I almost cut myself trying to pry the controller from that scary hard plastic!
