"Also the knobs are pretty hard and do make your thumbs sore after a long gaming session."
"Still is great though, as height and thickness to the analog, which can be a huge factor such as FIFA players as I've seen in the past."
"the only problem is they are a little too thick and effects some game play."
"The stickiness of these is very good and make it ideal for long play sessions."
"Aggressive Bumps - They hurt at first - but pain is feedback - I bought a gazillion of them for the Elite Controller - Because it has a galillion Thumb Posts - Variety is the spice of life..."
"Luckily I was able to get this to fit over the torn rubber pad that had torn at the seam but if yours is in tact, just starting to split, or you saved it you are in luck."
"These thumb stick covers just don't do it for me."
Qanba Q4 Q4RAF joystick is compatible with Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Black felt bottom and 4 rubber feet for non-slip competitive play.

Find Best Price at Amazon"The panel design that contains the player indicators, HOME TURBO MODE SELECT buttons, and switch is different than featured in various YouTube reviews and on the photos here. In reality, it's much more beautiful with a reflective surface and LED lights for the player number you would never guess were there until it's plugged in. - First is an annoyance: you can't boot a 360 off the stick (as of 1/12/2013 on my 2009-run Xbox - it *might* be situational), and when turning the console on, you have to take it out and plug it back in if you left it in there for it to register. - Second is an aesthetic issue with the design of the decal: the round silver bars around the buttons aren't perfectly circular, and bend oddly. It's a hard yet flexible plastic with leather texturing and metal strips that run on either end into the stick. I'd say the only disadvantage is that pressing START accidentally is not fun and can get you disqualified in a tourney (or simply cost you a match by default)."
"I love this stick because it helps you learn how to smash keys less and be more accurate with the timing of your attacks. Also, do not get scared of the fact that the start button is on top next to the other keys because out of the whole 2 weeks I had it, I never even got near to touch it while playing."
"This makes the controls from some games like danmaku's, shooters(Side scrolling, Over Head, Run N Gun), classic arcade games and fighting games less precise and changing the gate to an octagonal one will void your warranty which is really lame as there is a sticker that hides a screw that is required to remove in order to open the case. The square gate isn't the best but if you wish to change it you can but the button layout might be a killer for some people if they play games that do have rebind-able keys. If you are a gamer who appreciates arcade games and might think about modding this, then I highly recommend the Qanba Q4."
Featuring Tekken 7 original artwork, the Real Arcade Pro V Kai Tekken 7 Edition is a tournament-grade fighting stick that brings the arcade experience home. Features HORI original HAYABUSA joystick and push buttons.

Find Best Price at Amazon"I was concerned initially about the "nuclear" style of the start button, but my fears of a door standing up at all times were quickly dismissed as the door slides into the stick, creating a simple, hollowed out spot for the button. Maybe it's because I've never installed one on a hori stick, but it's worth noting that when installing the gate, it's necessary to check all sides of the gate to make sure they have snapped in flush to the bottom of the stick."
"My first hori stick loving it, I play countless of hours of injustice 2 so accurate a true pro stick most feature liked is it has a headphone jack built into the fighting stick can't wait to test it out on killer instinct 👍👍👍👍."
"First and best stick I've had in my whole life.. will recommend 5/7."
"Came on time and works amazing."
"Awesome stick, will continue to buy HORI!!"
"If you are in a party with friends the headset will make a low buzzing noise you can't hear but they can."
"Having been a controller user for all of my life I figured it would take forever to even get decent with this fight stick but not the case at all."
"I was looking for a fight stick for months and I couldnt find one for xbox one that wasnt over priced granted $185 is a lot of money but some of the sticks i was looking at where $200-$300!"

"Fits perfect on the controller... plus it makes it look awesome!"
"I'm going to make this review quick and sweet: If you're tired of using the on-screen keyboard and have a bunch of friends on your list, this is a must for you, especially if you're a chathead on Xbox Live managing a large friends list. If you love technology and fancy the keyboard like doo-dads ... this is your buddy right here, trust me. Last line: Yeah, plenty of people will complain about Microsoft's products being too high, but I must say ... their merchandises are HELL OF WORTH IT!"
"When I text someone on Xbox Live (and I do it fast) when I go back and read what I texted it'll sometimes enter the a,v and c letters and sometimes it doesn't."
"This is a great device for text input. I find that text messages are clearer than sending voice messages, and when you can't get a voice connection for whatever reason, the text messages always make it through."
"on their Xbox. - Anyone who uses the twitter or facebook app. - Anyone who messages their friends on the Xbox. This really does make everything on the xbox a lot easier!"
"Really helpful chat pad."
"I thought it required a little more pressure than I expected to get it to snap into place. The device is not only handy when sending LIVE messages and Twitter updates, but also when entering text in games -- such as naming a file, naming a character, or doing anything in-game that requires typing text."

My girlfriends know I'm on a mission to lose over 100 pounds, and they always invite me to work out with them - walks, gym, Zumba classes, you name it. It estimates calories burned, tracks how long you've been active during the session, and has playlists that provide continual music to help you keep going. This installment also has an option to "level up," so you unlock outfits for your characters over time - another cute way to add variety. Close the window blinds, turn off the photograph option in the game, crank up the volume, and rock it out!"
"If you've ever been at a wedding watching people having a great time doing the Electric Glide and wish you could join them but you don't know the steps this game is for you."
"Of course these aren't moves I would be busting out on the club but being to take the cues of the music and practice of dancing with the beat is great."
"Song choice - it has a good variety from a variety of eras and styles. Features - some features I like - you can track your workout time and calories, you can practice moves before you do them or afterward if you're having trouble, it shows you which part of your body is off as you're dancing and lets you know how you do moves (okay, almost, good, amazing, etc.)."
"I have yet to try out everything about the game, but it has been a blast so far. I have hosted two parties over these past two weeks and everyone had so much fun playing this game. That was very fun and provided a decent workout, but obviously, this game is not designed to be a strict fitness game so don't expect it to do wonders on every muscle."

Seat: The seat is made of fabric material, and it looks pretty solid. Seat itself is deep bright blue ( I picked the color). Extremely adjustable: seat sliders, reclining backrest, up/down forward backward wheel position, forward backward pedal plate."
"Hey guys, I ordered my Logitech G27 steering wheel: Logitech G27 Racing Wheel and the OpenWheeler gaming seat sim came as recommended item by Amazon, in addition to the wheel so I gave it a shot. I did a quick video tour of my setup, mostly for G27 but obviously you can get an idea of the seat from it as well."
"Great seat and wheel mount system."
"If the bottom structure was maybe another 5 or 6 inches deeper and the chair sat just a bit higher off the ground I think it would be even better, but overall, it's a great product."
"Extremely well built and sturdy (see attached pictures). All tools (13 & 17 mm wrenches and two hex wrenches) to assemble are included in a nice zippered fabric bag, nuts and bolts come in individually labeled zip lock bags. Took me about 15 minutes to assemble the unit and another 15 minutes to adjust all tubes and zip tie (included) all the cables. Highly recommend this rig for its solid construction, care in packaging, quality material, finish, adjustment options, ability to recline and comfort."

"Got this for my twelve-year-old son and he loves it."
"I have played rhythm games with guitar shaped controllers for ages... Way back when Guitar Hero 1 came out the concept of playing a game with a 5-buttoned plastic guitar and living out your rock fantasies with little to no practice was almost too much awesome to handle. In pro keys mode you play every note on the keyboard. It really makes you feel like you can play keyboard, unlike the 5 button approach to the guitars."
"Luckily enough there is a "Learn an Instrument" Mode that will roughly teach you some basics, but I found it failed to even give you the correct way to place your hands. After you get accustomed to the very very basic of things you can move on to the learn a song mode (Only available for songs from Harmonix not RBN) this will give you the most repeated parts of the song and your goal is to get 100% on each section. So it doesn't really teach you anything you just got to figure it out as you go."
"This keyboard is a better quality than most Rock Band controller instruments."
"On the other side of things, my 5 year old daughter can use it to play the guitar/bass parts more easily than using the actual guitar controller, because there is only one button to press for each color, and doesn't require the coordination of fretting a note with the left hand and picking it with the right."

"After thinking it was a simple battery issue, I've replaced the batteries 3 times, changed the xbox setttings from both remotes to xbox 360 media remote only. I would like to say the remote was wonderful when it worked, but the IR has to be very close to the xbox console to even work so I think I'll make room on my computer desk for a bulky xbox 360 controller which can change the xbox to the next tv show every 40 minutes without me getting up!"
"Used the auto scan feature on a 7 year old samsung and the first "channel up" got the TV programmed."
"I've only used it to control playback of recorded videos using my new Xbox 360's media extender function, and only for a couple of weeks; but, I've used it a lot with many World Cup, Tour de France, and other recordings, and using all or most media center functions. In comparing it to an old HP Windows Media Center remote I have from an 8-year old, now-back-up, HP PC, I much prefer this Microsoft remote's compact and attractive design."
"I figured out how to use the awkward remote, but was consistently frustrated as I pressed several buttons in order to do something as simple as fast-forward, pause or bring up subtitles."
"I purchase this remote so that I don't have to use my controller when using my Xbox for Netflix and other programs like that."
"But like I said the remote itself was fine and works great."
"And it's working great on the last gen 360 (the sleek black model just before the One came out)."

"Assuming the transceiver is listed in 'Devices and Printers' (in Control Panel) but the controller isn't registering with the transceiver then the following method worked for me and the controller/gamepad is working perfectly now. Microsoft 'documentation' for this controller is pitiful or non-existent..they don't even tell you where the sync button is on the controller to effect the method listed below.....it's a small button on the very front of the controller."
"A endurance test will start tomorrow when they will be here for school break for the whole week, three youngsters and one xbox.. so I am sure the controller is going to get a work out. If I discover any thing more about the use of the controller after it has logged in some serious hours.."

"The replacement joysticks that they sell for these controller are not OE and aren't anywhere near the quality or precision of the original Microsoft controller so beware of joystick replacement parts even if they claim to be OEM!"
