I can't believe they are advertising the controller without a wireless dongle. Going back to a wired controller isn't going to happen, especially when the controller already has built-in wireless support. No way, no how, no thanks.

I have the Xbox One controller for some months already... on my PC. How is it going to arrive in November??? It is the same controller from the console.

I like this wired xbox one controller. I have the xbox 360 controller myself, it was more expensive than this, but even with the usb cable you needed a wireless receiver (I don't know why).

I would buy this controller right away if the one I have now didn't work. A lot of people like to use the mouse and keyboard, but not me. I play to relax, on easy most of the time. I find a controller much more relaxing.

I don't really care for the other products mentioned.

the usb cable did not carry data, it was power only, so when you had the controller hooked up to usb, it was running wirelessly too... yea, love that logic...

i may get it just because of the better d pad, but i'm also looking into getting a universal adaptor for the old consoles so i can get the best of the best.

I don't know about this one... The XBOX One controller as a whole just feels cheaper than the old 360 pads. Maybe it's just me but I really didn't like the feel of the sticks when I picked it up in a store.
 
“The Xbox One Controller is the best controller Xbox has ever made. It comes with over 40 innovations to the award-winning Xbox 360 Controller, redesigned thumbsticks, and an all new D-pad provide greater precision. You can also use the same controller to connect wirelessly to your Xbox One or also via the cable too,” LeBlanc said.

The Xbox One Controller will be available in November.

I picked this up for $65 minus a $20 gift card. This controller is awesome. It's replacing my old xbox 360 controller. I can actually parry now in Dark Souls (the 360 controller was really getting worn out, especially the left stick's movement, and the right stick's grip).

I wish it didn't cost as much as a brand new game but it does feel absolutely awesome.
