A cleverly placed ‘GRUB KILLER’ slogan pasted onto the magnetic underside of the D-Pad can be seen when switching between options.Īfter this there are of course three different thumb stick offerings – the usual gripped sticks, a slightly taller version and my favourite, the dome shaped sticks, which seem to give exceptional control.

Being Gears of War themed this option does of course, like the rest of the controller, come designed in epic Gears of War fashion with each of the in-game weapons pictured in the correct positions on the circular option. Included are two different D-Pads, one normal one that everyone will be used to and another round, slightly concave option which is certainly much nicer to use. First of all, there are the customisable buttons and sticks which are easy to snap into place, with each piece providing magnetic grip to the controller. The main functions provided by the controller don’t differ to that of the last year’s Elite, however you can’t take away that those functions alone are certainly rather impressive.
