Looks cool but 1) Its expensive and 2) you wont be able to whip it against the wall without smashing the wall.
Not sure how many people here ended up grabbing an Elite Controller along the way. I got one when they first came out and it ended up getting some series drift with the right analog stick. I tried selling it with the issue, but really didn't get any takers except for a few that offered up a few pennies for the thing. I had shelved it thinking I'd come back to it one day and try to fix it myself, but never really did. The point of all this is to say that I read online that MS extended the warranty of the Elite Controllers and were doing a 1 time replacement for broken controllers. Sure enough I contacted the online support, chatted for a few minutes with a rep, sent mine in stripped down of all the parts, and much to my surprise received a brand new sealed in box Elite controller. So, if anyone has a busted Elite controller and not sure what to do with it there you go.
What is the link where you chatted??? MS online support?

Yeah. I can get you the link when I get home, but basically xbox support. Just make sure you have a console registered with them in their system.

I am actually chatting with a Microsoft representative right now! Damn left stick has been drifting for months. Just assumed I was s*** out of luck. It's looking pretty good for a replacement controller! Thanks a lot for the heads up.

Went through just as you described Wilk5230! I just need to ship the base controller to them. The rep said it would take maybe 2-3 weeks. Good lookin' out Wilk5230!

Are they hitting your credit card now or when the console ships?

They don't charge for preorders until it ships.

I was a little iffy in the green logo, but decided to order it anyway. While would have been a better choice, in my opinion.

Now for the long wait until Nov. 7th. I can feel a 24 hour flu coming on that day. Perhaps a sick day :wink:

This might help. Looks like Best Buy and Target still have them for launch day.

Thanks I was hoping to use Amazon because they don't charge you until release. I'll just order one off of Best Buy

I was looking at that, similar deal if you trade in your Xbox S.
