I bought a wired controller to save batteries. Dammit, I just learned you can use a Play and Charge as a wired controller too! My friend also didn't know, for he would keep the cable in, but also the charge pack -_- The charge pack died from overcharge.

Btw, Microsoft suggests you keep the empty battery pack if you use the play and charge cable for safty reasons (i.e. without it, the back is unprotected)

I do, or I did until it broke:( Anywho I actually prefer to use wired controllers, more convenient for me and saves a ton on batteries. Do not have to worry about it dying while I am in the middle of something, and they are cheaper. Plus they are much harder to lose. Wired controllers are terribly underrated.

Nope I use wireless even though I do sit close to the tv I just hate wires and see no reason to deal with them anymore.

wirelss,, but I must say play and charge is awful, quick charge kit ftw, if anybody hasn't got the quick charge I'd strongly advise it. If you buy a second quick charge battery you can switch over so quick.
