All of them look really cool but I am partial to the Forza Horizon 5 one. I really like the Master Chief armor one but no way in hell I'm paying $200 for a controller lol. Anyone here picking any of these up this fall?

Whichever one is cheapest at Best Buy when my current controller breaks. So none of them. I'll just stick with the basic $60 classic.

I've never been into custom controllers, always preferred to just get a silicone skin.

That said, the Halo console controller looks better than the others.

Was able to snag the Halo Series X console/controller plus the Halo elite controller. Excited for both, but I’ve heard the Elite controllers have issues, so I’m worried what’s going to happen if this one breaks.

Why would i be excited for an xbox controller? The DualSense is superior in every way imaginable. Deal with it.

First and last one look quite nice.

Don't have these special edition controllers in my neck of the woods, though, so I'll just settle for one that works.

The Halo Console Edition one is my favourite. Would love to have that and the Halo Infinite Edition XSX console. Looks awesome.

@hardwenzen: another wrong take. Dual sense is a great controller but ergonomics, it's still behind xbox. Everyone tries to copy MS controller design, and there's a reason. MS perfected it, they spent $100M researching the perfect controller.

The dual sense has great features, but ergonomics I'd still give it to the xbox.

IMO the only one that looks good is the Halo elite controller, the rest are pretty ugly.

They all do. But Xbox has a 'Night Mode' which will turn off the Xbox light on the controller and console.

I didn't realize new Xbox controller skins was something to be excited about.

The lime green someone posted is way cooler than the ones in the OP.

Still a fan of the old Xbox One design, so the Elite controller it is.

But I mean 199 is quite expensive for a controller. Buy two of those and you can get a a PS5.

What? DS4 was almost as bad as the DS3, and DS3 is as bad as it gets controllers wise.

You're just used to the DS4, but in reality, its a shitty controller.

If the halo controller was an elite 3 with a share button I would be more interested.

It's more comfortable to hold and play with than the DualSense. I've owned a PS5 since March 2021.

the gen 2 which I believe the Halo one is derived from is far more reliable in my experience, I've heard of issues with stick drift etc. but so far nothing on my gen 2, the gen 1 was comfortable but nightmare reliability wise, the grips were notorious for stretching and coming away from the pad itself as well as stick drift problems, whilst not perfect the gen 2 has been a much better purchase so far.
