    Amazing 3rd party controller


    Hi everyone,

    Today I received my new joypad which I ordered after reading great reviews on Amazon, and now I can confirm its brilliance. The name of the pad is

    PDP Afterglow Wired Controller with SmartTrack Technology - Green
    I managed to snag it for £13.99 but now its £16.99, but even then this pad is well worth it. The only downside is that it doesn't come in black and has a see-through casing which lights up green (but can be switched off).

    The build quality is fantastic and the sticks feel sooooooooo good. I tried it on the CoD 2 demo and I have to say that it may even be better than the official pad. I only wanted a spare pad for when I have people round at mine, and never wanted to pay the
    full whack for the official pad. This must be one of those occasions where you snag an awesome product for an awesome bargain.

    The controller is wired which for me is superb being the older gamer. Too many years have developed the whip technique which wireless just cannot offer Amazing 3rd party controller :D

    So if you were after an amazing joypad but for dirt cheap, look into the PDP Afterglow wired controller. Very good indeed.

    :)

    Just had a look at Afterglow, they do make an XB1 pad but it's shaped exactly like the official ones and also has rumble triggers. The 2 things I hate about the pad, usually you can disable stuff like rumble on some 3rd party stuff but it doesn't look like
    you can on that, cheers for the suggestion anyway mate.

    Sorry to hear it. Is it an official Xbox 360 controller or 3rd party? If it's 3rd party it may be an issue with the controller but try turning the console off then on again

    Headset on Controller issue

    Hello Jordan davis.,

    Welcome to the Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

    If your headset works correctly while using your Xbox controller, then we recommend that you continue using your Xbox controller instead of a 3rd-party controller for your console use.

    Microsoft can't guarantee that our accessories will work with 3rd-party accessories, or that 3rd-party accessories will work correctly with our hardware. Please refer to the 3rd-party controller manufacturer website on how to properly use it with an Xbox or a headset, or if it even supports headset use for the console as some 3rd-party controllers may not.

    Additionally, you may need to update your 3rd-party controllers' firmware using you PC in order for it to work properly. In any case, you will need to check the manufacturer's website for both your headset and your 3rd-party controller to see if they support connectivity with one another and to the console.

    Sincerely,



    Xbox Customer Success Manager
