    2 XB1 controllers broken within 1 1/2 years


    I am getting pretty upset about these controllers. I received the xb1 day one edition for christmas of 2013 and the controller worked fine for only 6 months. the left joystick began to drift and made it impossible to play FPS. So i bought another controller
    and this one lasted a whole year and a half (july 2014-october 2015). the controller will absolutely not connect to my xbox. My other controller connects fine, and I also used my friends controller and that worked fine as well. It also wont charge anymore
    and can only run on batteries. I have 3 xbox 360 controllers that lasted 5 years and are still going strong today, but these piece of *** controllers give me constant problems. I am getting sick of having to buy new controllers once a year because they dont
    last and then microsoft has a warranty of about 10 minutes on these things. These controllers aren't even used a lot either. Maybe 5-6 hours per week.

    :)

    Extended Warranty - really necessary?

    Don't forget in 2 - 2 1/2 years time it might only cost £250 to replace a broken xbox one

    What games do you think should get with the program free Games with Gold?

    they should make it based on years of xbox live.

    -1 year: bad arcade game

    1-2 years: Ok arcade game

    2-5 years: best arcade games/ good game on demand

    5+ best arcade game/ best game on demand within last year

    2 faulty consoles

    1 Slim (18 months)

    1 Premium (4 - 5 years)

    Both faulty within a year
