Ridiculous price though.

£50 a pop for standard controllers is enough considering they often need changing e er 18 months to 2 years(I game a lot so they get more use than average)

Yeah bit of an increase from the original Elite but can't say that it bothers me.

Would have been nice for it to have been around the same £120 mark.

I'll stick with my 1st edition elite controller, it already does everything I want it to do.

Not really needed But I do love a bit of new tech

Actually it is needed, I use mine for PC gaming and having a controller for some games is much easier.

I meant for me mate, I have no need to buy another controller but I just have to have it As I said I just can't help myself when it comes to things like this plus I've been getting the bug back for gaming recently so i think that warrants a newly updated controller
