This may not sound like the most impressive thing to give the paddles control of, but when you are no longer moving thumbs and fingers to different areas of the controller the addition of a few vital moments due to quicker controls can make all the difference. Racing titles such as the recent Forza games have seen me using the paddles for shifting gears, whilst shooting titles have given easier access to grenades and melee attacks. Whilst none of these are needed for play, it goes without saying they can provide that competitive edge that all gamers wish for every now and again. The final button offering comes in the form of four swappable paddles that snap onto the back of the controller. For those already pleased with the previous slogan on the D-Pad, note that the lower part of the thumb-sticks harbours the message ‘WELCOME HOME’ which can be seen when moving the left stick upwards. As said before, these are easy to switch around and this is something I certainly did a fair amount to find which sticks I felt most comfortable with. 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.
