The Xbox One Elite controller has been labeled by many as a cool, yet grossly overpriced peripheral. But does Luke think that its awesome features justify the high price?

oooooo a controller for pc gamers 10/10 makes sense

edit : if you think im stupid for making this comment watch the pc vs console video on techquickie where linus states "an infinitely small percent of pc gamers use it" or something along those lines

An infinitely small amount of people also play games that are better on controllers then?  LOTS of people play racing games, fighting games with controllers.  Hell, I even have a friend who switches between KB + M and controllers in GTA V depending on what event we play.

Is this product cool? Yes

Do I want in? Hell no!

[Vendetta]

Really cool controller, I personally use a controller still for quite a few games. Now correct me if I'm wrong but this fucking this is $280?! They killed any sales they were going to get with that price tag.

damn this is awesome

 

 

now i wonder if logitech would do a Playstation-like controller like this one

 

 

as much as i like this, i'm more of playstation style

[Syntaxvgm]

I want one. 

Not for the rebinding - im on pc lol

not for the customization, I do that with controllers already 

but because it look slike it feels good

[XTankSlayerX]

I need this for a few reasons...

 

Paddles would be killer in Rocket League and other games, quality is always a good investment, and I'd just like another controller as well.

@Slick @nicklmg

can the paddles actually be registered as independent buttons on PC? 

Because that's important as hell for me. 

I feel like this is really important for PC gamers and I'm surprised you didn't mention it in the video.

[QueenDemetria]

released on Vessel and YouTube at the same time? huh

Yeah but again quoting linus "an infinitely small amount" also the vid could be click bait because of the controller

Click bait would mean a title sensationalized to make it more interesting than it seems.  This just says Xbox Elite Controller...

From what i know they cant be, the buttons can only be assigned to other buttons on the controller. Pretty stupid i think and i wont be getting one till it becomes a feature.

As why should i the consumer pay so much more for a controller with more buttons when the buttons are only aloud to be used as a copy of the button that's already there.

let us map the buttons to what ever we want, then i will buy it.

Hell yeah, this! When I play games like Sleeping Dogs or GTA, I switch back and forth from mouse + keyboard to controller.

[RevoltTrain]

Any reason this came out on Vessel and YouTube at the same time?

When i play GTA V i always switch between, get the best of both worlds. Some times i will drive with my controller with 1 hand (I have mastered this skill) and use my other hand on the mouse shooting

Honestly though it depends on the game to what i use, single player RPG's i will sit back with a controller, same with Racing games or Adventure games. FPS games and stuff Mouse + Keyboard.

imo all depends on the game to what i like to use.

I do the same thing in GTA MP...at least when I gave the tinyest fuck about GTA MP with admittedly wasn't long.

Big topic atm and they didnt want the Youtube viewers to be late. LTT will some times do that with big review videos as they dont want any one to miss out.

[Ariito]

Looks nice, though, I still prefer the ps4 controller due to its joystick layout

Yeah one reason why i have never really got a Xbox controller as i grew up with the PS layout and it just feels natural, The Xbox one is a bit weird to me.

I've noticed they have with products that were under NDA and show events.

 

But a product that already had reviews out for over a day on YouTube? Doesn't make sense. Especially because this got out before the Steam Controller review

That's why I still use my 360 Controller to this day.

 

I've used this exact controller since the day after the 360 came out initially, it's both a nostalgia thing, and it's what I'm used to. Tried a XBOne controller, didn't like it too much

I use a Logitech F710 and its a great controller and laid out like a PS controller but i would really love to have a good well built controller like a Xbox one rather then a cheaper one if you know what i mean. But every time i go to buy one i dont because im not sure about the stick layout,.

I really like the layout, my friend that grew up with PlayStation since he was 4 or 5 has a PS3, PS4, and Xbox 360 Controller.

 

For games that are new to him he usually tries them out with the 360 Controller and sticks with that. If it's a game he played a long time ago he'll either use the PS3 or PS4 controller, whatever he reached first really
