    Elite Controller: Am I Being Picky?


    Bought an Elite Controller at Best Buy. The left stick was making a squeaking/grinding sound when moved left/bottom. It seemed to work OK, but it bothered me. I exchanged it.

    Second Controller also has a faint sound on the left stick. It's intermittent though. Not as bad as the first. Also, the right bumper feels mushy, not as clicky as the left or the bumpers on my other two controllers.

    Should I take it back? I'm really loving the paddles for Halo but it's really discouraging having these small issues with a controller that cost $150.

    :)

    Elite Controller: Am I Being Picky?

    $150 controller should work perfect when it's brand new no mushiness or any grinding or sqeaking.

    I would keep taking them back until I was 100% satisfied with my purchase.

    Yeah it comes down to a matter of preference on this issue. If you are not satisfied bring it back or get a refund and maybe purchase the controller elsewhere.

    If things like that bother you then yes, you should return it. It's going to be even more upsetting when other parts break and the controller is a paperweight after 4 months, so just save yourself the headache.

    Game pass being picky

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Xiena

    What error code are you receiving when you try to run the games? (Is strange that the issue happens even with a physical copy)
    Also, this happening on Xbox, right?
    Which one do you have?
    Or is this happening on more than one console?

    And, which troubleshooting steps you have done so far to fix this problem?
    In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed
