PDP Prismatic Xbox One Wired Controller Review - GamersFTW

PDP remotes have been hit and miss over these past few years, from PS2 on up I have had many controllers from them both good and bad. However, no matter how bad they were, there was always something that drew me into the PDP brand, it was a mixture of style and comfort that just seemed perfect for me, and no matter the price I knew I always wanted at least one PDP controller per console. When I heard I was going to be able to review the new prismatic controller for Xbox One I was super stoked to get into the device and game with it. After a few days of testing on Black Ops 3 and Fallout 4, I can say this is not just the best PDP controller they ever made, but also gives first party controllers and the elite controller a run for its money.

Button mapping and headset functions from the controller are nice for the price, but a wired controller with lights is not even close to an Elite. Sorry.

Its an absolutely banging controller for the money, officially licensed by Microsoft of a high quality and a fine alternative or spare to the original pad besides which it has some remapping features.

Good for a spare, competitive with 1st party, miles away from an Elite(which is pretty much what I said).

If it would have been Wireless i definitely would've been worth my time or money.That wire killed it for me though.

Is the wire really so bad though? I think maybe the idea of the cable is worse than the reality. I don't think its out where I live but I'll definitely give it a try when it gets here.

I actually found that I like wired more than wireless. I'm not too far from my Xbox when I game and I die a lot less in FPS games because of dead batteries!
