Xbox Elite Controller Australia

So out of curiosity, I was wondering what the Xbox One Elite controller would be priced at in AUD.

 

Looks like it'll be retailing for $199.95 as an EB Games pre-order deal.

 

I'd say that's just a squidgeon too pricey, as an Xbox 360 controller can be had for as little as $25 AUD.

 

Do you think the 8-fold premium is worth the extra features of re-mappable inputs, as well as 4 extra inputs - especially considering it's likely the majority of this extra functionality will only be of real benefit on PC applications? Will this new controller force existing XBO users to fork out the $200 to be able to play games that demand those controls?

 

It seems that the Elite controller really is that - catering to the 'elite' who are able to afford such basic features at such expense.

 

What's your opinion?

Honestly, as soon as someone figures out a way to safely and easily softmod any Xbox One, button mapping will be possible with the standard controller. And anyway, what happened to being able to change settings in game? Because I can do that with my Original Xbox.

its cheaper to leave that prison and start fresh almost anywhere else. You'll recoop your money in a few years

I would only say it's worth it if you play something like competitive CoD.
