Sure thing. The controllers are not as good as they used to be, only when it comes to durability. I have had to replace two Xbox wireless controllers ($60). This is because they started to drift.

Basically, I would say to get a warranty on any controller you buy. If you manage to have it last longer than the warranty, I think you get your money's worth. If It drifts before the warranty is up, get it replaced.

It is a very comfortable controller, and I wouldn't recommend third party controllers because of this. They may not be as good as they used to be, but I still believe they are some of the best in the market.

Edit: NOT ELITE SERIES 2 ($130)... GOD no. I am not Bill Gates
