New Wireless Controllers are easily recharged and more

In order to recharge the Xbox 360 wireless controller, you have several options. You could either purchase a rechargeable battery pack from Microsoft or simple buy ordinary AA batteries.  Both these options fit in the same power slot provided and could extend over forty hours of gaming.  In addition, you could charge the battery pack using a charger or via the USB port provided on your Xbox 360.

When you own the most powerful gaming console on the market should you not want to match it with a powerful and wireless Xbox 360 controller?  While hundreds of reviews have been made to criticise and praise the Xbox 360.  However, Microsoft’s wireless Xbox 360 controller has only been touched by a few reviews. 

When Microsoft released its seventh generation gaming console known as the Xbox 360, worldwide gamers reserved their units even before its launch.  Since the wireless Xbox 360 controller is also developed to perfection by Microsoft, you can guarantee a durable pad that you will be using for years. 

The Xbox 360 controller is called the Controller S.  With the wireless Xbox 360 controller, it features exactly the same main face button layout, D-Pad layout and analog stick as the old version.  However, the wireless controller has been improved slightly. 

Certain buttons can now be pressed as shortcuts for custom play lists, live controls, user settings and other features used for personalization.  For those who wish to experience the wireless Xbox 360 controller with hundreds of their new games, this version is available with nine feet of cable and breakaway connectors. 

Other people who are used to the old version, then Microsoft still offers the wired version for the Xbox 360.  With the Xbox 360 wireless controllers, you can connect through a 2.4GHz connection, which features advanced technology that keeps interference from other signals.  Even if you are thirty feet away, you could be able to use four Xbox 360 wireless controllers simultaneously. 

Compared to the old controller that had the back and start buttons on the right side, the new Xbox 360 controllers display these buttons on the left side, near the “guide button”.  Around the guide button area, you can find numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 to determine which player corresponds to each. 

While the Xbox 360 wireless controllers have only minor improvements compared to the Controller S, the best advantage of the new controller is that you can play your favorite Xbox games even if you’re 10, 20 or 30 feet away from the console unit.
