Guess MS is keeping the ball rolling with another gradient variation for the X

That’s pretty badass...I was gonna complain about it being symmetrical and bam, you can flip that biz. I’ll wait to see the reviews first though, especially with the new ps5 coming, i wouldnt buy it if it isn’t forward compatible
 
It looks better than the standard controller for sure, but then again, it's not hard to be better looking than the standard PS4 controller.
 
Looks good, would get if they had an xbox version (and ditch the poorly made elite controller).

I think ti would be easier to hold for me. I used to love the xbox controller, but I have turrets and have developed some weird ticks when playing video games. I hold the controller in a weird manner now, without my palms touching it for the most part. Not sure why.

Also could never get used to two paddles one each side, one is good number for me.

The current one is a gem of a controller but I feel it’s a lil dated when compared its competitors in one aspect that may hold it back, especially if all consoles were to one day just go agnostic with their games, that being motion sensing.

The PS4 and Switch have it, granted not every game supports it but when it is its pretty neat...even if it’s gimmicky.

So, to quote Shuri “Just because something works doesn’t mean it can’t be improved.”, and my list.


1. Built in motion support
2. Dedicated share button
3. Make the home button capacitive like the Mercedes menu buttons on their steering wheels. It would allow it to be like a mini touchpad, which could have gesture inputs like swipe left/right (with your thumb like unlocking a phone) to capture a pic or vid or scrolling through a map.
4. USB type C support
5. Built in mic/speaker
6. Colour customization within the Xbox home button. Maybe capitalized on the chroma colours and effects on the next Elite controller ala Razer

Um, yeah I had more thing to list on my mind but I zoned out, so, I may add more to this later.
 
TIL, PS4's controller still has motion sensors. No game I own (around 15) uses it, and I have never found myself wishing any of them did.... One thing I would like is for the face buttons to be engraved. Back when I had a roommate who also had an OG xbox, he had a japanese controller S and the face buttons had their corresponding letter engraved in the button and just that bit of texture was a notable improvement.
 
Please no motion controls. A dedicated share button however would be nice.

Hope it is better than the current controller. I have had nothing but issues with disconnects and audio cutting out from the headphone jack. Not to mention the crappy undurable bumber buttons and the stick drift these controllers are prone to.

The 360 controller was so much bettter.

Just a question but is your wireless router near the console?

I ask that because my wireless router was initially almost right next to my Xbox One X, I for the longest time had issues with the audio on the headset crackling/popping and cutting out, occasional controller disconnect. As soon as disabled the wireless on my router and went to a optimally placed seperate wireless access point in the center of my home, all of the issues instantly went away. The wireless router was absolutely interfering with controller connectivity.

No. My router isn't close to the console. I have nothing wireless near it either.

We should all pool our money together to get you a new controller! I haven’t had any of those issues, but I use an Elite and I never used the headphone jack as I use the wireless headphones.

Even my standard controllers are working fine for my son.

I don’t want most of those features on my Xbox controller besides maybe a subtle yet dedicated share button.

The more features and the more parts the more likely the controllers will have issues.

I have had 4 new controllers for one reason or another. They are just poorly made.

My 360 launch controller still works perfectly.

My Day 1 controller sucked tbh, so I definitely agree with your point here. I will say that every edition I bought after like the first year turned out to work great.
 
What I want the most is standard paddles like the Elite has. Even make them detachable. They are wonderful, and I don't like playing without them.

I love the XB One controller it feels perfect in my hand. Only problem I had was with the controller that came with my One X it broke on me. My controller that came with my One S two years ago still works great and I bought a couple extra’s since we have a One S and One X in the house.

I really liked the 360 controller at the time but I had a lot of problems with those controllers. I probably bought 1 a year it seemed like. I play a lot of MP shooters back then and logged many hours in those days.
