5.0 out of 5 stars Slick and Awesome September 28, 2011

Like every collector item, they always comes with steep price but they are awesome in the end. Custom graphics featuring infected crimson omen of Gears of War. The controller comes with transforming D-Pad allows more stable control, for example more stable in switching weapons in Gears of War 3. I remember I used press and see in the screen that I am switching between grenades and gun, that is annoying in middle of intense multiplayer game. And yes it comes with skin pack for weapons for Gears of War 3 so its pretty nice bonus too. Controller is light gloss so don't worry about finger prints, it is not like Xbox 360 S 250gb Gloss, which liternally shows case of CSI :P.

Overall, it's a great controller. First time using the new adjustable d-pad, which is a nice touch. My only complaint is the product shots make the controller's red coloring look brighter than it actually is. It's more of a darker red, almost burgundy in color. All in all, great controller.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product. A bit pricey. October 20, 2011

I think the controller looks pretty much the same as the piture shows. It has a good feel to it and seems like it is not cheaply made. It does however still feel like it is a little pricey for what you get. Obviously someone is buying this just for the way it looks but you can get a similar controller with a charger pack for same price or cheaper. The shipper or Amazon did not update the shipping status at all. The status just remained "shipping soon" and then 8 days later it just showed up. I kind of like to know when something is arriving and felt that was a bit odd.
