PowerA FUS1ON Tournament Controller for Xbox 360

Amazing controller, love it. Smooth, might have to lower your sensitivity. Has awesome response. I love the left and right bumper buttons. Trigger buttons are very smooth. I definitely recommend it. I play alot if shooters and RPGs via BF4, Halo 4, borderlands, Skyrim, fallout 3 and NV. Etc. I am very happy with my purchase.Fits my hands nicely I have medium to small hands with sausage fingers.

I got this controller august 23rd its been about 5 weeks and its not showing any signs of buttons sticking or stick drift, everything I expected also the case is a very nice feature.Update:8/28/15I have been experiencing stick drift badly For the last month. I have contacted powera support. All I get from them is no info or any response that will tell me how to get the warranty fulfilled. Their contact # refers you to the website with NO HELP whatsoever! Don't expect your money invested in this to bring good customer service, because so far they have none.I am sorely disappointed and feel ripped off. If I'm going to spend money on something, I expect better service.Oh well!

The Power A was something that I was looking forward to. I chose it because I wanted a controller of a higher standard than other third party controllers. It came packed nicely and it had great feel and response for about a month or two. After that the right stick became completely free from the devices (or springs) that keep it centered. I am referring to any stiffness when placing your finger on the right stick. It moves to whichever way that I lean the controller. I don't understand why this has happened. I will note that the right stick can still be used for a game but it doesn't feel good. I am now using this controller for racing games as I don't need to use the right stick for most of those games and I certainly can say that the product fits my hands well. I can only speak highly of one point. That is that I still want to use this controller for racing games after a major feature of the controller is broken. I don't recommend this product. If you have one, be gentle with it.

I am a hardcore gamer and I'll break down the good and the bad with this controller, if you game one way or another you might like or hate it. I have used the Onza and MLG MadCatz, none of these are currently better than the standard MS sadly, all have their issues.PROs:Good FeelLED Lights, for show nothing more (can be turned off)Buttons and Trigger feel firm, not slushy like MS'sThumb-sticks are comfortable, BUT look at CON's tooTwo different grips (don't know why anyone would use the glossy one?)CONs:D-PAD is horrible for fighter games, 1/2 circle and 1/4 circles rarely registerThumb-Sticks feel good, but the concave aspect is too large, causing thumb to slip when strafing back and forth or aiming quickly. Inner concave is as wide as the standard MS thumb_stick width. (causes jumpy actions back & forth, hard to aim and zoom in one motion, very FIRM click required)Extra packaging just to charge more money, I travel all the time but don't useany carrying cases.Thumb-sticks are Lock Tight'ed into place, can't remove to attempt some adjustments. Also, requires the justom 3 star head to take apart controller, the same as the Wii console.All said and done, when I get time to take the controller apart and make a different thumb-stick I'll love this controller. I don't play fighters so the D-PAD issue doesn't matter to me. The aiming is sexy smooth while moving in one direction, but rapidly changing is when the large concave jumps around.

Ok let me start off by saying this is a well made controller. The wire is made of a nice thick fiber so u don't need to worry about ripping it. The feel of the controller is slick and comfortable (if u swich out the grips). And lastly the buttons and analog sticks are very responsive compared to a Microsoft controller. Now the negative parts that caused me to return it. The controller will not fit with any default Microsoft headset or any old version of turtle beach. (ex. X11) Astros headsets will fit in the controller port but the reason I returned them was when someone would finish talking I would hear a loud popping noise and it would drive me crazy. So I looked online and found out that I didn't buy a defective controller it was that they were all like that. I really wanted to like this controller but I couldn't I'm just too picky.

This controller is wider than it's original counterpart, which is perfect, because with the original, you have to crunch up your hands to use it. With this, your thumbs lie dead center on the joysticks. The joysticks have good traction, and all of the buttons had a solid reaction to being pressed. Nothing was broken, and the LED on the back of it made all of the buttons light up! This made late-night/early-morning gaming very easy and cool. Another extremely cool positive, is that I can hook this up to my computer via a USB port. It lets me play the latest Steam games and any other gamepad-compatible game. This controller has proved as a versatile tool that has given me endless hours of fun. Would buy for any other console as well.

I got this when it was on sale, I picked up one for my PS3 as well. The default grips the controller comes with should be swapped out with the other set immediately as the alternates are a less plastic feel, and have more of a textured grip. My only gripe is the rigidity of the cords which is really no deal breaker. Also the R3, and L3 clicking sounds are incredibly loud.I feel I should mention the lights as well. Beautiful, but distracting. as the base of the analog sticks are semi-transparent to illuminate the lights, frequent finger movements make a strobe-like effect when gaming and can be distracting at times.Note: The Xbox analog sticks have concentric circles for thumb grips as where the PS3 thumb grips is just a more curved surface. I found the Xbox's thumb grips to be more substantial and ergonomic.
