  1. Will the rubber grips fail on the next Elite controller?


    Bought an Elite 1 controller & the grips failed. Bought an Elite 2 controller & the grips failed. Microsoft is now requiring the use of their controllers only with an Xbox. Microsoft has offered no solution for the failed rubber grips on Elite controllers ever. Doing something stupid three times, like purchasing a new Elite controller that has failed twice before, makes me an idiot. Will you be purchasing an Elite 3 controller from Microsoft, knowing that it may have the same issue, in the future?

    Probably not just because I won't want to spend the money and my Elite 2 is doing very well.

    Will the rubber grips fail on the next Elite controller?

    Microsoft does not require the use of only their controllers

    Using licensed controllers, from MS or third parties has always been required since the original Xbox 20+ years ago

    Closing exploits for unlicensed peripherals is all that happened

    Microsoft is now requiring the use of their controllers only with an Xbox.
    You can still use third party controllers as long as they are authorized.
