i really wish theyd come out with the wireless adapter already, but otherwise really nice controller. good weight and the dpad and shoulder buttons are nice and clicky, and the texture around the analog stick helps as well
i like it more than the ds4

Haven't tried the new xbox controllers yet but I also feel like the 360 controllers are the best. They sit really nicely in your hand and automatically work perfectly on most PC games without any hassle.
I don't like the D-pad though, I often accidentally press up or down when I'm trying to press left or right (and vice versa) when going through menus.

I'm a fan boy of the PS4 controller. Use it for all my gaming on my PC and PS4. I've held the xboxone controller and I thought it was nice, but I hate the xboxone and most new Microsoft products so I am gonna avoid giving them my money for a product I don't like more than my trusted PS4 controller

platformers are always better with controller, and dark souls is good with controller because it doesnt require precision aiming and I am already used to the control scheme since 2008 with demons souls which was ps3 exclusive

some parts on zelda so difficult controlling the little joystick. like having to quickly run up a thin top of a wall to get the big chest before fire reappears around it and having to start to puzzle over again or falling down to the previous floor doing tons of damage and having to get back up there. i feel would be easier with mouse and keyboard. or aiming bow and arrow would be easier with mouse i think.
but then again i suck at fps games whether on system with controller or computer. but typically find computer fps games a bit easier.

Also most local co-op games (or modes) can only be played with controllers.
I'm more used to the Playstation controllers as well since me and all my friends have been with Sony since we were kids, I only have one friend who owns an xbox. But for PC games the xbox controllers are far more superior in terms of compatibility. Especially for games where you need to look at the command list for combos or special abilities etc. With xbox controllers the commands are marked as X, Y, A, B, RT, LT, etc. With other controllers they are marked as numbers instead of Triangle, Square, R1, R2, etc, which is really confusing. You can emulate a 360 controller to make it less confusing but then the colors and symbols won't match your controller (Playstation's blue X is Xbox's green A, and Xbox's blue X is Playstation's pink Square). But a lot of games won't even work correctly if you're not using an Xbox controller so you have no choice but to emulate one.

such accuracy such wow was amaze became legend | the first game i ever played was doom and sim city and stuff , so pc for life, and the benefits of pc is you can use any controller you please
i did own a ps1 2 and 3 growing up (always had a pc in the house as well for d2 and wow) but switching from that controller to the xbox one doesnt phase me, its the same thing just the analog stick is a different position, plus i like that the xbone controller is a bit larger. ive never owned any xbox, and ive only played one like 3 times maybe, my friends always had playstation as well but still the controller switch never bothered me

Thanks for the mini-review.
I am currently using a wireless 360 controller, but one of the shoulder buttons doesn't work very well and my batteries require pressure fitting w/ tape for the stupid battery pack to maintain a connection. My first 360 controller (wired) lasted something like seven years, so it's disappointing that the build quality seems to have fallen so much.
As soon as they come out w/ a wireless dongle, I'm going to snag a XBOne controller. In the meantime, though, I would be pissed off every time I picked up my wired, wireless controller.
