I'm so tired of people claiming that the Xbox controller hasn't changed since the 360. It has changed, it's just the 360 controller had no fundamental issues so the changes have been minor. I think takes like this are the reason some companies think they need to reinvent the wheel every five years just to keep people interested.

I'm sure it was cheaper, but it looks a lot cheaper. Like, my first thought upon seeing this was that OP got a knockoff.
