I got this for my birthday with my Xbox 360 and it is great! Sometime you can see the movement in the controller.

Did you buy this product for yourself or someone else? For me
This is my favorite controller of all time, for tiger woods pga tour that is.. I have bought a new one every year for every tiger woods pga tour game since 2011... It is a must for golf fans who want to play online.. It never shanks, always hits dead straight and once broken in you can get lots of power on your swing... Only problems are I have to buy a new one every year, I treat them with care but they have all died, wont turn on... Not great with plug in headsets unless u are using a turtle beach, the Microsoft headset gets and gives lots of echo... Not great for fps, I use my regular ms controller for skyrim because the afterglow is a bit off on the radius... A little lag, a little tight, a little overturn, all in the same motion... So in summery, if you play tiger woods pga tour this controller will make you a great golfer but I wouldn't use it for any other game....

I got the after glow controller today and it's great! Works just as well or better than any other controller out there! The LEDs are very vibrant and cool. Also, when you don't have your after glow on, it is very cool to see all the components like the rumblers work. Very cool. Game on in your favorite color.

Did you buy this product for yourself or someone else? For me
I only bought this controller because my child decided to play lets hide mommy's xbox controller and have it disappear forever. I bought it because it was cheaper than paying the extra twenty dollars on an controller especially with limited budgeting. It works very well it doesn't move on its own when using the analog sticks, you can shut off the afterglow light if your eyes are that sensitive, I haven't had a problem with it yet I think its great for the price for anyone who is looking for a cheaper controller, I like that you can see through it. I've had this controller for about a week and as for the other reviews that I have read how the controller may not be compatible with the headset (not sure about it since I don't have one either). Its light not too heavy but just right. It worked very well when playing movies or playing The Darkness II. I don't think the controller vibrates when playing a very action filled game like a first person shooter game. Over all I have no problems with it I think it works very well.

I think that the Afterglow game controller series is the best on the market, and especially a wise purchase in both an economic manner and scores huge style points with every man and woman who's used it in my experience.
The spectrum of colors is great and there's a color for everyone - well, almost. I wish PDP had wised up earlier and made it every color of the rainbow. But I got my two colors out of all of them - and it looks awesome for the arcade-style setup that my game room is.
So maybe you've wondered about a flaw. There is one, but it shouldn't affect your game very much. The shoulder buttons could've been placed a little lower so that the finger could easily shift from the trigger. Otherwise, this is your best shot at either a PC controller or an XBOX 360 controller for your money. I don't think that even a $150 controller could ever replace this in its coolness.

This controller is a really good controller in performance and design. They do go out quicker than a normal Xbox 360 Controller. I have also experimented this controller with the Play Station 3 and it works, except your controls like X, Y, A, B are almost not effective.

Did you buy this product for yourself or someone else? For me
i bought this the first month it came out. I still have it. its quite durable and easy 2 use. buttons go down easy and are quite responsive. my friends lttle bro used it an got mad. he smashed on my solid oak table and it still works like new. no plastic damage or any inside damge either. i opened it up 2 make sure. since i have a certification in electronics i know wat im talkin about. voltage, amp, resistance, and relay speed are incredibly precise. the resistors have less than 1% tolerance. most controllers use 5% tolerance which mean the designer were serious when makin it! BEST CONTROLLER YET!
