The days of primitive joysticks and wheel paddles are long gone. Modern gaming requires a precise, responsive and comfortable controller, and the Xbox 360 stands right on the cutting edge. When you're ready to switch between your games, movies and music, you don't want to be bogged down by tedious menus and selection screens. Experience thrilling gameplay with the new standard in wired controllers.The Xbox 360 Controller features compact ergonomics for comfortable play and accommodates gamers of all sizes and skill levels. The centralized Xbox Guide button provides you with instant access to your digital movies, music and games at just the touch of a glowing button. Adjustable vibration feedback results in a more personalized gaming experience, and the unit works with most Windows Vista-based PCs in addition. An integrated port accepts the Xbox 360 headset, and the extended 9' cable lets you sit a comfortable distance from the screen. The next generation of gaming and entertainment is here.

Excellent, Multi-functional

Pros:
-Can't beat the originally certified controllers from Microsoft. These are the best you can get, and they last very long (as long as you take care of them).
-The safety release has been one of the greatest innovations since the earlier console days and it's certainly a great feature they kept for the current gen consoles.
-Corded, so there's no worrying about stopping to change batteries or having to use the plug-n-play (that broke on me after a while).
-Buttons, analog stick and triggers feel firm and durable.
-Can be plugged into a computer's USB hub and play Games For Windows Live flawlessly.
Cons:
-It is corded, that can be a problem for some.
-Although I purchased the latest model (with the revised D-Pad), it still feels very stiff and sometimes pushing Right makes me go Diagonal-Up-Right or Down-Right.
-Price
What's great about it: multi-functional, firm buttons/sticks/triggers, no batteries required
What's not so great: cord can be a hassle especially at close enclosures (such as a computer desk), D-Pad still circular, price
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good set of a fair priced headset

How Often Used:Daily
Sound isn't isolated; people around me can hear it even on a low volume.
Bass for some music is overpowering over the treble. On the good side, they are comfortable over a long period of wearing and the cord feels very durable (threaded overlay). Some people with smaller heads may not enjoy these headphones though.
All in all, I'm still glad I got these, not the overpriced brands, which audio is similar to these.
What's great about it: Cord feels durable, fair priced over major brand
What's not so great: Too much bass, one size fits most
I would recommend this to a friend!
