Instead of releasing different colours - you'd think MS woold rather focus on QC for the Elite 2. Its still crap.

And we dont need more colours ffs, there the design lab to build your own.

It's insane that such an expensive product is such shit. I've returned two so far with stick drift

 

[Killer8]

I wish controller makers would spent half the money and time they do on colors in making them more reliable.

The poor reliability is by design.

People aren't going to buy all these weird and wonderful new colors if their current controller still works.

Then there are features in Returnal and GT7 that stands far above that. I wasn’t that impressed with the haptics and triggers over standard rumble until playing those two games with those features.

I played Returnal and I wasn’t blown away. I think astronot had the best use case with rain and snow. I don’t think it’s a game changer where Xbox games feel worse without it. It would be nice to have but I still think rumble recreates much of the feeling outside of the smaller details.

I never said it was a game changer, I said I wasn't impressed until playing those games. And yes, Astro was good as well.

When done right, it does shine. I won't play those games without it now (turned off), because to me, it adds to the experience.

Microsoft launches the Lunar Shift Xbox Series X/S controller | VGC

The colour-shifting design was leaked in September…

www.videogameschronicle.com

According to Xbox, the Lunar Shift controller shifts from silver to gold when the light hits it, “giving the controller a stylised, smokey atmosphere”.

The grips also have a grey and black swirls design, which is unique to each controller, and the triggers, bumpers and back case have a textured grip too.

 

[GymWolf]

They are going the sony way uh...

Add useful features like back buttons or enhanche your build quality instead of introducing useless crap.

I never watch my controller when playing. It could smile me and I would notice it.

Day one owner here, zero issues.

 

[Rodolink]

[Andrew Evenstar]

day 0 buy, definitely my style. hope there's a RPG, i mean RGB theme. will definitely pair this with my stadia for No Man's sky WR speed runs.

 

[German Hops]

This one looks very cool.

 

[Pejo]

Reminds me of that 3rd party controller (I think it was a PS3 one) that had super bright LEDs on the face that would actively blind you while you were playing with it.

Dont cave.
You have enough controllers!!!!!!

Order placed.

A gyro with no gyro control? Dude just add it. You finally pulled your head out and put an internal battery in the elite 2 and did the fans revolt? No. They just changed their minds about batteries very quickly. The same thing would happen for gyro control and we could finally have it implemented in more games.

I had a PS4, the speaker was more important than gyro functionality. The touchpad was borderline useless and cumbersome. The new triggers sound great though.

 

[AJUMP23]

How many bumper presses do I get until it breaks.

Looks cool.

Gyro? It's just a fancy paint job.

Oh well that makes more sense!

Waste of time. Out of all the gamers out there, how many care about their gamepads changing colour while they play?

 

[alabtrosMyster]

Does it have a half decent rumble function?

And which new game does it come out with? It would be nice if MS asked their studios to release something from time to time, no stress, just maybe if they could it would be nice, we spent enough money to buy a mid-size country.

I bought the ps4 just for that back in the days! This is amazing!

Xbox has more controller paint jobs than games .

Eh give me a budget controller with paddles.

Don't get too excited by this SHIFT thing, the Aqua shift didn't really change colors much when I had it.
