    Doesn’t have gyro. I like playing games without aim assist preferring raw input aiming with mouse bound to the gyro.

    I’d pick up other third party controllers over a Xbox these days, since hall effect and TMR sticks are standard. Extra grip buttons are common on third party controllers too without paying Xbox Elite prices, which are notorious for breaking down despite the premium price. And lot of third party controllers offer gyro too.

    My 360 controller still works and I’ve used them for playing through Yakuza on the PC. But, when it comes to buying a new controller Xbox is last on my list now. Too many missing features while not being cheaper than the alternatives out there.

      Yeah I never considered gyro. I don’t play FPS as I get motion sick. The one where vision shows movement and body isn’t moving, compared to the other one where the body is moving but vision is not which I don’t get (e.g. ships, cars, airplanes). I have never thought about this use case, gyro in shooter. Dunno if it also works in other TPS like gta or read dead2.

      The last and only game using gyro I played was flower on ps3.

      But yeah it’s probably a deal breaker if features you need are missing.
