Great Product   07/15/2008
By MNGOLFER from MN

Pros: Works really well
Cons: Same port as the wireless

"The controller its self is just great. The play and charge kit along with it also is really nice. It takes around 6 hours to charge the pack to full from empty which isnt that long but sort of is. A full charged pack will last a fairly long time at least a few weeks with playing a couple hours a day. This will save you a good amount of money in AA batteries. The only things that isnt great about the charge and play is how it uses the same USB port as the wireless unit so if you use wireless you cant charge and play on live at the same time. So if you only play Live i would really recommend this product to you."

Great deal for controller   06/16/2008
By curry from Minnesota

Pros: useful package of controller and battery pack, elite color instead of white
Cons: none

"The 360 controller is the best console controller I have ever used. It fits the hand really well and unlike playstation controllers, has triggers. This is a great buy because it includes the battery pack as well as the controller."

By Gizzard28 from Clinton Township, MI

Pros: Everything you need
Cons: None

"I picked up this kit due to it having everything I needed for constant play. And it basically does just that. The controller works great and so does the battery pack. I just wish they had a Black rapid charge kit. Buy this its as good as it looks."

A must have for all 360 players   03/09/2008
By Celestin

Pros: Lasts longer than AA batteries.
Cons: none.

"Why put your game on pause so that you can change your batteries? with the play and charge kit, you can have continuous playtime. when it is out of juice, simply plug it in to charge and keep on gaming! No more wasting money on those pesky AA batteries."

Great investment   02/19/2008
By Gamer92922379274

Pros: no batterys ever! wireless controler! no more putting your gaming on pause to get more batterys
Cons: no cons even though people say it expensive its worth every penny

"When ever my friends came over I had to take turns passing around the one controller. So I decided to get a new controller. I saw this controller and thought it was awesome! no more batteries it comes with its own battery pack(unlike most controller packs). The only problem lies in the website and not the proudout looking at the description and the picture I thought it charged wirelessly but it does charge through a wire. But go out and buy it now!!!!!"

By jake4916 from Connecticut

Pros: Sleek Black Color, Never need to replace battaries, Play and Charge kit fits any 360 Wireless controller.

"This product is amazing. First off all, the black color looks amazing, and the controller feels exactly the same as the regular white ones. The play and Charge kit and pack work great, so you never need to replace the batteries. you have all the advantages of both the wireless and wired controllers with this bundle. buy it right away."

Best Controler Ever   02/04/2008
By DrKyle from Santa Clarita, California

Pros: Never need to buy AA batteries, awesome style, recharge while playing, Play & Charge kit compatible with all controllers
Cons: D-Pad a bit loose

"I love this thing! It allows me to have a wired controller or a wireless controller whenever I want! I went out and bought 2 more battery packs and another Play & Charge kit for my other controllers and I love never having to leave when I'm playing online because my controller decides it likes to eat my batteries. I noticed my D-Pad is a little loose, but it is only noticeable when the controller is rumbling furiously and that might not be the case for everyone.
All in all, great job, Microsoft!"

Controller, WITH CHARGER?!   01/17/2008
By RatingSpartan from Maryland

Pros: It has a charger.
Cons: None

"I find this controller appealing because it is black and it has a charger. The fact that there is a charger is awesome because you get alot of gameplay outof the controller per charge and you dont hae to go out and spend money on batteries or rechargeable batteries. this controller already does it. Its quite conveinent.
Enjoy."

Best bundle on the market   12/29/2007
By SuperGeek13579

Pros: comes with a rechargable battery
Cons: no reduction in price than the seperate components

"This is a great buy for anyone needing a new controller. it bridges the gap between the power friendly wired controler and the hassle free wirless controller. it comes loaded with everything you need to charge the battery out of the box. it can also be used with normal batteries if the need arose. the cord is plenty long but if you feel so inclined, you can buy an extension for a little more than $7. plus if you are smart, you can charge it when you won't be moving a lot it, so it will be wireless when the gameing heats up. it is also the only way to get a black controller that matches the battery. it is unarguably the best controller bundle on the market, but it dosn't cost any more than the controller and the "play and charge kit" bought seperatly."

Great Package   12/23/2007
By AluminumEagle

"If you need a controller, get this pack. The black controller looks and works great, and instead of replacing batteries every time they run low, you just need to plug the controller into the Xbox 360. While they are charging the controller is like a normal wired controller, and when they are finished, you can unplug it and use the wireless functions again. This saves you the money it takes to buy new batteries and the time it takes to change the batteries."

I hate batteries.   09/25/2007
By autumnmonths from Detroit, MI

"I hate batteries, and I hate paying for them. I hate when they die out, and I hate not having any around. That's why I picked up the XBox 360 controller with the play and charge kit. I can plug the controller in (and continue to use it) when the battery runs low, and re-charge it! Obviously it's a controller, so there's not a lot to say about that. It works well. Rather than get the play and charge kit seperately I just bought them together. The only reason I rated this at 4 instead of 5 stars is that $70 is a bit much for a video game controller. I would buy one again, but I wish it were a bit less expensive."

Only controller set to buy!   09/18/2007
By Stormborn from Detroit, MI

"If you are going to buy a new controller for your Xbox, this is the only one you need. It's black, which is cool, but saves you a couple dollars by including the rechargeable battery and the wired charger. Excellent set!!! Goes great if you own the recharging station and any additional batteries as well. Worth the little xtra cash."
