2.0 out of 5 stars Grips work for a few weeks but aren't worth what I paid, September 22, 2009

The first thing I thought when I opened the envelope these came in was "You have GOT to be kidding me...I paid for *this*?!"

That being said, I received exactly what was described. The pictures may be a bit misleading, though. What you get is two small pieces of texturized rubber that have a peel-off, sticky backing. They fit where they are supposed to fit on the controller; but, like others have said, the glue fails in a very short time. Considering I paid over $10 for some tiny sticky pieces of rubber, I can say that I am very disappointed in this product.

PROS:

- While it stays on, it does help you grip the controller better

CONS:

- Overpriced, for what you get

- Glue doesn't stick for very long

- Glue DOES stay on the CONTROLLER and isn't easy to clean-off if you should decide to stop using the grips...

3.0 out of 5 stars Grips interfere with xbox360 chatpad, November 11, 2009

This is a good product for a secondary controller or if you do not have a chatpad. I tried to connect my chatpad onto the controller after placing the grips EXACTLY where they are on the pictured instructions and they were about 1/4 of an inch in the way and I could not connect it. Eventually I took the grips off and spent about 30-45 minutes cleaning the sticky residue off the controller that the grips left behind.

If you have one controller and a chatpad THIS IS NOT for you.

Besides the interference it was a decent product, not to say I would ever purchase one again though.

Initial I loved the grips. After playing MW2 for hours... they start to come unglued. Now Im stuck with them. Hard to remove the glue. Would not recommend.
