First-Party Xbox Controllers Are Discounted At Amazon

Microsoft’s Wireless Xbox controllers aren't discounted too often--especially the more colorful options--but right now you save up to $15 on select models. The eye-catching Shock Blue version, for example, is available for just $50, down from its usual $65. The deal probably won’t stick around long, so if you need a controller for player two (or just want an upgrade for player one), head over to either Amazon or the Microsoft Store to check out the savings.

Not only is the Xbox controller great for consoles, but it was named one of GameSpot's best PC controllers of 2022. It doesn’t have any fancy features such as remappable back-buttons or a hair trigger mode, but you’d be hard-pressed to beat its combination of functionality and pricing.
