5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly the same as the white controller, December 13, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Xbox 360 Wireless Controller - Glossy Black (Video Game)
I bought this black wireless controller so I could have another wireless controller. Be advised when reading reviews on this product that it appears some people are reviewing the Xbox 360 Silver Controller and Play & Charge Kit, which is a special controller that is different (and more expensive as of this writing) than the black controller I am reviewing. This controller does NOT have any chrome items on it (other than the usual Xbox Guide button), nor does it have any upgrades to the D-pad.

As far as the controller itself, I didn't notice any structural difference between this controller and my old white controller that came with my Pro 20GB Xbox 360 several years ago. I did notice, however, that this controller properly charges my Play & Charge Kit where my old one did not. Prior to buying this controller, my Play &... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for XBox 360 Gamers, November 25, 2005
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
If you've got an XBox 360, you really need to get your hand on one or two wireless controllers. These controllers are GREAT for keeping your gaming area free of clutter. To start with, the controller is much smaller than the standard XBox controller was.

For control items, you start with the standard blue X, yellow Y, red B and green A buttons. There are two thumbsticks, one on the upper left and one in the center right. There is also a directional (d-pad) in the lower left.

Next, you have a pair of shoulder buttons at the "top" of the unit, up above the other buttons. You also have a pair of triggers below those shoulder buttons.

Finally, you have a center X button that can be used to turn the console on and off, plus a "start" and "back" tiny white buttons on either side of it.

The unit has a rechargeable battery unit inside it, the size of two AA batteries. You have to buy a recharger set SEPARATELY that lets you charge up while you... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Same controller just different color scheme, December 1, 2010
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Xbox 360 Wireless Controller - Glossy Black (Video Game)
Despite other opinions - this controller is only different in color scheme from the older controllers.
In fact - my left trigger annoyingly squeaks - ironically all my older controllers (5 in total - including the red and blue ones - which I use as spares and for friends)never squeaked. Basically the color scheme is all black - no gray. And a shiny garish chrome power button. It has the exact same feel the older controllers have. I think some of the reviews claiming it has a different feel or has different performance has to be imaginative wishful thinking.
I noticed no change in performance (and due to the squeaking trigger actually worse quality than my older ones!)
I also noticed no different power consumption as compared to the earlier controllers. I use rechargeable batteries so can't comment on AA battery drain - but again - I'd be wary of opinions that somehow this controller had been redesigned to reduce power consumption when everything else is identical to the...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Xbox 360 Charging Station on the market!, December 28, 2009
By 
BiggestBargain (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Nyko Charge Base 360 S for Xbox 360 (Accessory)
I just purchased this charging station from Best Buy on an impulse and I am glad I did. First of all, its BLACK - glad someone finally made something for us XBOX ELITE owners! No more messy USB charging wires coming from the XBOX... no more leaving the XBOX running while the controllers are charging! This unit plugs directly into your wall power outlet! Says made in China - but it appears very well made. The chargebase even has rubber pads on the bottom to prevent it from sliding all over your entertainment center. The NYKO batteries fit and worked perfectly right out of the box. Placing the controllers on the base after gaming is a breeze. When you place your controllers on the base the LED light turns RED - indicating it is charging your controller. When the charger is done it turns green and then turns off. Thanks NYKO for making such a great product at an affordable price!

I purchased this charge for the 360 after giving the PS3 equivalent to my father in law. I have to say it is great. The batteries fit with out any complications . It turns off when the charge is complete. It holds the controllers so I can find them.

This Nyco charger with two batteries is a great value for anyone that has just purchased an Xbox and is looking for rechargeable batteries and a charger base.

As you can see from the picture it comes with charger base that can accomodate two controllers with the batteries in place. It also comes with two batteries for only [...]!

However, this charger will not recharge the standard Microsoft batteries ([...])as those are not compatible with the Nyco Charger base.

I unfortunately now have two Microsoft batteries that require the play and charge kit (above) and this Nyco charger and two Nyco rechargeable batteries. If this charger could charge the Microsoft batteries as well this would have earned a 5 rating.

I have only had this prodcut for a week and its performance is superb so far. The batteries came almost fully charged so it took less than 15 mins total to charge both. Mine arrived from Target/ITC via Amazon. I selected the black... Read more

This review is from: Xbox Cordless Precision Controller (Electronics)
No more tripping over wires, no more connecting, I just leave my XBOX in my glass cabinet and turn it on and I'm ready to play. These controllers are fantastic. My buddy and I grew attached to them from the start. It took a few minutes getting to the new feel of them, they are similar to the "S controller" by Microsoft,as the buttons seem to be slightly closer together, but you won't care as freedom and ability of going wireless is amazing. I didn't have any distance problems either, my sofa is at least 15 feet from the XBOX itself and there were no connection problems. I can't say how long play time is, but Logitech says at least 50+ hours with AA batteries, and I've heard from some others it's up to 75 hours. (make sure you use good batteries like Duracell or Enegizer for less bettery changes) But all I can say, is that I'll never go back to cluttered cords again. Turn on your XBOX, and play!

It's been a few months since I've wrote this review and I still have not had any... Read more

This is a great constructed controller made of very good matierals nothing feels cheap about it i have been using logitech wireless mouse and keyboard on my computer for quite sometime and they have also been great.Its wireless capabilities are great nothing will block its way,its also perfect in its wireless capabilities, I remember not to long ago someone walking in front of you could block the tranmission from your controller to system,not anymore with its 2.4ghz frequency you could play outside your house through your walls,i did it well i didnt really play I just went out to see if it would work(this test required 2 people) peeping through the window would just give the controller easy acsess,this much testing sounds stupid huh,well i want to know how good it is, dont you? Oh yeh it feels pretty good in the hands. Also there are no generic feeling buttons which are easy to identify by there loosenes, rattling and unresponsiveness, i found this with a couple other wireless... Read more

If you want a wireless Xbox control, buy this. There's no other on the market better. It feels very similiar to the Controller S or larger controllers.

Pros:

Nice Feel

Great Wireless Play

Layout Same As Liscensed Controllers

Vibration Button

Sleek Design

Cons:

Control Sticks Loose (making for a bad FPS experience)

Receptor has short cord making it hard for XBL Headsets

Buttons Require Hard Pressing

The controller will aggrivate fans of FPS's. I can't use it ever on Halo 2.
