While the Xbox vs PlayStation debate rages on, Microsoft’s army of acolytes stand by their system for its performance, features, exclusive games, and of course, its controllers. There are a crazy number of custom controllers out there, optimized for everything from affordability to genre-specific games to competitive gaming. The standard wireless Xbox One controller, though not the most exciting, is certainly one of the most iconic gaming controllers out there. Offset analog sticks are ideal for first-person shooters and sports, while textured grips help keep your hands in control. With up to twice the wireless range of previous models, this Xbox One controller gives you more room to roam while you game. The 3.5mm stereo jack allows for connection with any compatible Xbox One headset, but the ability to connect up to eight wireless controllers means you may simply gather your gaming crew at your place, instead.
