In a typical Xbox green and some black thick lines highlighting buttons and just a smackeral of design do add up to be a very smart looking controller.įor actual use the buttons on the pad work well. There is a reflective element to the front which if you have been lazy in the afternoon and still have yet to brush your hair, you will get a shocking reminder when glancing down to the pad. The design looks pretty special, the rubber grips serving as quite a funky look while still providing that all important function. This really is a minor niggle, but I like perfection in all areas of my controller as it is the key device that bring the Xbox and you together thus meaning it can make or break the experience for the user. Although it does not impede on your controls, in fact not in the slightest, it does feel a little awkward as your fingers round the back of the controller fight for a little bit more room for optimum comfort. The fan sits at the back of the controller. The problem with having this fan unit in the controller results in the requirement of extra space. It is really nice to see a feature so well executed and not a feature just to look good on advertising but one that actually works and very well indeed.
As soon as you feel a little sweaty and the fidgeting begins, you just hit the fan button and away you go with a crisp breath of air filtering to the palm of your hands. If you ever have long gaming bouts either on your own or on Xbox Live, this controller will certainly make your control more comfortable. Sucking air through to the sides of the rubber grips which themselves have vents to release the air actually performs incredibly well. So is this feature of cooling a gimmick, well I am pleased to say most certainly not. Below this sits the all important button that toggles between fan off, fan normal and fan fast. The buttons are all controller ‘S’ positioned except for the start and back buttons which are located in the center of the unit between the right analogue and the D-pad. The pad itself borders in size between the official Controller ‘S’ pad and the original much larger official controller which was first offered with the Xbox before the change was made to the smaller controller.
