5 of 5 Great controller, bad battery life!!! 9/14/2009
Wingnutz27 from Oreland, PA

The rechargeable battery lasted less than two months. The controller itself is great. Feels better than the original white and the next gen black controllers. I personally bought it for the color.

4.7 of 5 Play but not so much Plug and Play 6/9/2009
from Washington, DC

Shipping was amazing! Appeared the next day even though I paid for regular shipping! Good controller. However, the plug of this plug and play does not work. Shows on (green light) when it gets plugged in but then goes off and doesn't charge the controller at all (and yes I had the console on).

5 of 5 WOW can't beat this... 4/1/2009
Keegman from Maryland

I have had this item about a month. This controller was received a few days after i ordered. It was extremely fast shipping! The controller was brand new in packaging and was great. I never had such a nice looking and working controller. Thank you so much! This deserves 5 stars!

5 of 5 Very Cool Controller 3/18/2009
Chris from Rockford, IL

If youre bored with the white/ivory colors that most Xbox 360 units ship with, give this one a try. The red & black are a really cool combo, and the play & charge unit is a nice addition. I actually charged this puppy with my PC, and after 3 weeks of constant use its still only down by 1 tick. Beats the heck out of replacing the AAs all the time!

Wayne from St Louis, MO

My favorite hockey team's colors are red and black. since the Elite came with a black controller it was a no brainer to get a red one. It works great!

Great product at a great price! Can't beat it the value of this controller with the charge in play. It is one of the best products we have bought.

5 of 5 Microsoft has good controllers 3/16/2009
Russ from Columbus, OH

I've never had a problem with the controllers and the play n' charge kit is an underestimated value. You'll save so much money not buying replacement batteries and the battery that comes with it can be used on your other wireless controllers (though, the color probably won't match).

5 of 5 My Favorite 360 controller 3/16/2009
Chad from Layton, UT

I love this controller and actually really like the play and charge kit it came with. I have seen some bad reviews concerning the play and charge kit not working right, but mine works perfectly. No need for batteries which is nice. Plus you can't beat the price. I paid $41.99.

5 of 5 cheap and awesome! 3/13/2009
from Washington, DC

40 bucks for a red color play and charge OEM controller. Nothing more to say other than awesome deal! I use this as my primary controller and bought it at the same time as I did my Pro system... so the included white controller is still untouched !

5 of 5 Very Light and worth it 3/11/2009
from Worcester, MA

Lighter compared to my launch day controller. Feels better in my hands. it is also smaller than the original wireless controller. Used free shipping and received it in 5 days via Fedex. Great purchase. I was skeptical because early review said the thumbsticks or d Pad was bad but this one is awesome. It plays great on Skate 2. Overall great Purchase. Its a steal at 24.99, if you sign up for the buy.com credit card.

5 of 5 Excellent controller 3/3/2009
A Gamer from San Diego, CA

This controller beats the one that came with my 360. The dpad works way better. On my old controller, I have to press down on the dpad with a bit more force in order for it to work (it's been like that ever since I opened it). With this new red one, the dpad works perfectly. All the other buttons/joysticks/shoulder buttons & triggers have a nicer feel as well. The color of it reminds me of a red velvet cake. You can't go wrong with this controller.

My husband loves his new controller. It's mostly red and black with the exception of the buttons. It looks way cooler than the white one! Excellent price too.

5 of 5 XBox 360 red wireless controller with plug n play 2/12/2009
Debbie from Illinois

What a great deal! I got a great price on this wireless controller and plug and play kit. It is a great controller in a unique color. My son now has controllers in a different color for each friend! of course, Buy.com has the best prices, fast delivery, and high quality products available! I highly recommend shopping at their site for electronics and other needs! The plug and play is a must for those with kids, teens, or adults who never want to put the games down so you can keep the controller plugged into the USB port on your computer close by or the USB port on the Xbox itself. You don't have to worry about controllers going dead mid-stream during gameplay! The controller is made of high-quality hard plastic. Comes with rechargeable battery! Why not make a change from the usual boring white and buy the limited edition red! It's cool!

5 of 5 Great Controller 2/11/2009
Hollywood from La La Land, California

I was a little wary buying this over the internet, because the first charge+play kit I bought (from best buy) had a bad battery pack, but this one works great. I thought the controller would be red and grey from the picture, but I was pleasantly surprised that it is actually red and black. It looks really cool if you switch the red battery with a black one.

5 of 5 Not a bad deal 2/11/2009
from Chicago, IL

Well, my son loves it and now doesn't have to worry about batteries because it comes w/ a rechargable pack. It's the best color out there, but would rather have a Halo controller, since they look cooler. Hope they come out w/ a Gears of War themed controller, that would be an instant buy!

Killa Rick from El Centro, CA

Exactly what you would expect. The great feel of a Microsoft XBOX 360 Controller at a better price, not to mention the charge and play kit. I if you're looking to complete your controller collection or replace a damaged one, don't hesitate to make this purchase. Can't beat the price of this deal.

5 of 5 REC'D IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS! 12/30/2008
Anna Marie from Cranford, New Jersey

My son finally let me know what he wanted for Christmas on December 6, 2008. I searched the internet and Buy.com had the best price on the Red Xbox 360 wireless controller. It also comes with a rechargable battery. It was $15 cheaper than Walmart, Amazon, and GameStop. I also received a $2.99 shipping offer and was worried that I would not receive this in time for Christmas. I placed the order on the night of December 6, 2008 and received it on the morning of December 10, 2008! I will definitely use Buy.com again!! He says the controller is great (red is his favorite color) and no complaints, it works fine. HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!

5 of 5 Beautiful in person! 12/25/2008
MacEliot from Capital Wasteland

Wow... just order it! The price is right and so is the ergonomic feel. Microsoft may have RROD problems, but no so with their controllers. I'm glad MS learned from the original Xbox controllers and chose a design very similar to the Controller S (JDM). I have a PS2 and PS3 and I maintain my hate for ergos of the Playstation controllers. Go MS!

Denise from Antwerp, OH

When my son asked for this for Christmas, I told him that he would have to use any gift cards he got for the holidays. But when I found it for $15 less than even WalMart and then added the $30 Visa rebate, I couldn't refuse. I will check Buy.com for all my electronic needs in the future.

5 of 5 Works but doesnt charge 12/16/2008
Jack from Houston, TX

It looks great. All the buttons work. Unfortunately, the controller doesn't charge the battery like it should. I used a different controller with the same cable and red battery, and it would charge the battery. Switch back to the red controller, could not charge still. I contacted buy.com but have yet receive a respond. Since this happened after the 14 days return period, I guess I'm stuck with a functional red controller that doesn't charge. Be advise to deplete your battery right away and test the controller, or else you will be in my situation.

tRodHxC from 210

I purchased this item from Wal-Mart for $70, including tax. When i saw the same red one here for only $49.99 i bought it again and returned the new one back to Wal-Mart. The red color is much more appealing than the grey remote. Plus the included play and charge kit is great. I just plug it in to my pc's usb port to charge so i dont have to keep my 360 on. Good buy, outstanding price. Oh ya, the rechargable battery makes the control feel much better since it add some weight compared to AA's. One of the only reasons i don't like the new ps3 remotes is cause they are so light.
