Various game journalists and internet media influencers have gotten their hands on the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller, and thus far it seems like they’re quite impressed with the tech.

We wouldn’t call the Elite Series 2 the best Xbox Controller (we’re a bit biased as we love our products that improve upon the console manufacturer's official offerings), but it does appear to be a quality product. Microsoft has improved on the first Elite, bringing more options for players to customize their experience. The build quality is top-notch for a major game company, and the device ships with a case, multiple pads, a charging dock, and is USB-C compatible.

Reviewers seem to feel that the build quality of the controller is high, with the device feeling nice in the player’s hands. The customizable options on the controller also have been well-received as the different stick sizes and tension can be adjusted. We’re going to be offering day-one mods on the Elite Series 2, giving you even

The Xbox brand has put out a very cool YouTube video where they showcase every single Xbox One Controller ever made, and it made us think about how great these controllers have been over the past six years.

The video can be found here:

The video prominently features Xbox designers Monique Chatterjee and Carl Ledbetter, as they go through the series of different controller styles that led up to the eventual final Xbox One controller, and then show us the different color schemes that have been offered over the years.

The different categories of a controller shown off in the video include:
• Family Controllers
• Bundle Series
• Color Series
• Design Lab
• Forces Series
• Shadow Series
• Tech Series
• Sport Series
• Phantom Series
• Game Inspired Series
• Elite

This year there has been a huge Pro Xbox One controller shortage due to a mixture of
manufacturing limitations and a larger interest from the general public.
As a result, many of the biggest aftermarket controller manufacturers are facing global shortage
issues.

To make things worse, most companies are unable to provide a date for when they will be able
to deal with back orders for those interested in out of stock Xbox One pro controllers.

What Is Causing The Pro Xbox Controller Shortage?

One of the major reasons why pro Xbox controllers are out of stock right now is because
Microsoft is moving away from the non-Bluetooth variant of their Xbox One controller.
Many custom Xbox controller manufacturers are still using the version without Bluetooth, which
means they need to deal with some adjustments before they can start shipping out the new
models.

This is the main reason why there is such a large

In the gaming world, two new types of controllers have started to emerge. Besides the standard official controllers, we now have modded controllers and pro controllers.

Understanding the differences between each of these controllers is sometimes hard, but the differences are important to understand. Whilst both modded controllers and pro controllers may share similar qualities, modded controllers can often include features that would disqualify players from professional events. Pro controllers, on the other hand, have advantages, but they’re perfectly fine to use in professional events, LANs and esports tournaments.

Programmable buttons and macros

Pro controllers can have additional buttons and button mapping, but they can’t give players any abilities that wouldn’t be available to a player with a standard controller. As soon as buttons become programmable, it’s considered a modded controller.

By programmable, we’re talking about macros and combos. If you can

The industry for pro controllers is growing at a tremendous pace, and it’s no surprise when you consider how fast esports is growing too. Many players are often confused about pro controllers and whilst they add new functionality over standard controllers they are not considered to be ‘modded’ controllers.

In this article, we explain why pro controllers are in fact not modded and why you can use pro controllers in tournaments or esports events.

On the surface, pro controllers come with a wide range of benefits - they have additional buttons, button re-mapping and the quality of the buttons, D-pad, joysticks, and triggers are often a lot higher than standard controllers.

There’s no denying that pro controllers offer better precision for skilled gamers, but they do not include any ‘mods’ or affect gameplay whatsoever.

On the other side of the fence, modded controllers have specific ‘mods’ that can be used to get an in-game edge over other players. These mods could

Wondering what Xbox One arcade sticks are available? This article will feature some of the top sticks available for Xbox One players.

MayFlash F300

Despite the low price of $60, the MayFlash F300 has a lot to offer. It is on the small side of things, but it's got everything you need to play Street Fighter V or other fighting games competitively.

The F300 default stick and buttons are fairly responsive, but it's easy to mod them with higher quality equipment. In fact, the easy modding of the F300 is one of the biggest selling points - it's a great starter stick, but with a bit more investment it can be something to compete with other top tiered players. The smaller size makes it perfect for esports events and LANs too.

Razer Atrox Arcade Stick

With a $199 price tag, the Razer Atrox arcade stick is more in line with other high-end sticks. Although the standard layout will do you well, you can customize the Razer Atrox easily

Details for the DLC content for Dead Rising 4 has been announced by Capcom. The upcoming game will feature a number of DLC releases, all of which will be available as part of the deluxe edition.

Alternatively, players can pick up the standard version of Dead Rising 4 and purchase the season pass in December. The other option is to purchase the base game and then purchase the DLC packs seperately once they are released some time after the launch of Dead Rising 4.

The first DLC pack for Dead Rising 4 will feature a number of holiday themed items and will be called the Stocking Stuffer Holiday Pack. This first pack will include vehicles, zombies, and costumes, all of which will be based around the holiday theme. The Stocking Stuffer Holiday Pack will most likely launch before the end of 2016.

The next DLC pack to launch will be golf themed mode. Player can play with up to three of their friends online in an eighteen hole golf course. Instead of water and long grass, zombies

After what felt like an unending schedule of free Halo 5 content, it's been announced that the monthly content drops for Halo 5: Guardians will now stop. Whilst this was the original plan announced by 343 Industries in the beginning, it's almost a shock to think that’s almost been a year since the game launched.

Since the release of Halo 5: Guardians, there have been eight big content drops, all of which added plenty of new cosmetics, new maps, new items and in some cases even new Warzone modes or AI enemies.

Now that the monthly content drops have stopped, 343 Industries want to make it clear that support for the game won't stop. In fact, some new content is still planned for the near future, even if it isn't going to be as substantial content releases. It's likely that the 343 team are now moving most of their resources to the next Halo title.

343 Industries recently mentioned that, "While you won't be seeing updates every month moving forward, nor updates the size

In a recent update, a glitch was found in Halo 5: Guardians that allowed players to have a whole world of new fun with custom weapons in Forge.

The glitch in question essentially allows players to assign weapon effect, damage and fire rate to another weapon model by using the REQ pads. Not only did this glitch apply to Forge games, but the glitch carried out into custom games too.

As an example, a player could place down a weapon pad and set it so that it spawns a REQ weapon. A player could then edit the item properties to change the weapon model. The end result allowed players to have SMGs that fired sniper bullets, plasma pistols that fired spartan lasers and all sorts of other things. Plenty of crazy combinations are possible with this glitch, and like mentioned before, this glitch does allow players to set up some incredibly fun custom games.

Perhaps the most exciting bit of news to come from this all is that Tom French has confirmed that the glitch will be staying

A brand new Xbox One update has launched and it brings a number of changes, some of which were seen in the Preview Program that received an update earlier in the month. The update coincides with a Windows 10 Xbox update, both of which have some interesting improvements.

Firstly, a change has been made to party chat - the limit for players in a chat is now 16. Previously the player count for a party chat was 12. Party Chat originally launched with just 8 player support and it has grown since, mostly because it has been one of the most popularly used features. Xbox One engineer Mike Ybarra says that 64 player party chat may one day be a possibility. We'd hope that with that, we'd have some sort of channel sorting system so that party chat could be used as a voice server like Teamspeak 3 - players would be able to join different channels to avoid overspeaking other players who may be playing a different game. On top of the increased player amount, Xbox One owners will now be able to
