Yeah, I've got the gold one from my brother just need the crystal. He said it was waaay more popular thus cost like $15 more at his local stores

I would buy a Lunar White variant of the Elite controller day 1. But for the love of God Microsoft stop with the golden d-pads that shit is tacky as hell.

Still the best IMO. I don't like flashy overdesigned controllers.
Yep. This thing is a real beauty. Bought it before I even owned a PS4 because it looks so nice.

I imported my Titanfall controller from Japan. Sexy ass controller. I just wish the console had come to life :
oh yes they do. microsoft takes controllers to another level. it's probably the main reason i stick with the console.
suuuuuurrrre.

I disagree.
Yeah, no. As pretty as these are, the Xbone controllers reach an incredible aesthetic these can't even aspire to

I can respect your choice, but when you want a little pizzazz, the Xbone controllers are pretty good. Personally I like the Master Chief Halo 5 controller, with the Lunar controller a close second. Really like the bit of flash with the colored d-pads.
of ALL TIME. nothing comes close
Please tell me someone knows where to buy this one, so sexy.
That's by far my favourite one I've seen so far. The Uncharted 4 DS4 is the only other one I really like. The Titanfall, CoD and the Gold DS4 are the only ones I really don't like.
The small color button scheme is so ugly. My favorite XO controller is the titanfall edition.
But the greatest colors are these:
I love the banana controller.
yup. n64 da goat

I actually like the Crystal Dualshock a lot, but that's because I loved the clear consoles and controllers in the 90's, and it brings back that nostalgic look.

Microsoft Store and Best Buy only on the Blue variant.

Those are really sexy, especially the blue shadow. Too bad they don't allow you to swap out the various pieces and parts for a custom order, though (like the blue faceplate with the silver accents of the matte black one, colored buttons, etc.).

I really wish I could use the Xbox 1 controllers on the PS4.

Wish I had a good reason to own more than 2 of these controllers, cus damn some of these just look fantastic.
People like it more because of the rubberized grips, that only this one and the Forza one have.

Worst controller tho. That joystick does not stand the test of time at all. Hori has a good variation.
Funny. People were trying to flip these white ones from gamestop like they're rare.

Elite controller best looking best being of all time
I have literally never bought anything other than standard "non-coloured" controllers as they just look garish and cheap to me. However, I have to say that these XB1 controllers look pretty mint.
It's fair to say, I have always liked Microsoft's hardware on the PC side of things (mice/keyboards etc) too.

Precisely the one I own.Portable systems kind of straddle the line between system and controller but my favorite is still the Famicom Game Boy Micro.
I love the different X1 controllers, but they are so expensive
Still haven't bought a second one yet.

Yeah, now I really regret buying 4 black ones back when I purchased my xb1. I loooove the lunar white one and that new dusk controller... HOT DAYUM and I actually dig the colored dots in between the XYAB buttons, I think it looks classy af.

Microsoft is fuckin' killing it with their controller designs this generation. The pad itself is incredible but the designs... Hot damn, son.
I've never collected controllers before but I've got 5 for my Xbox One. And yeah, the Lunar White is my fave, Forza 6 is a close second. Feels so good in your hands, going back to a Dualshock 4 after using a Xbox One controller with Diamond Grip makes the DS4 feel like a cheaply made toy.

I thought the gold part was tacky at first, but in person it's quite pleasant to the eye actually. And yes the grip is wonderful. The shoulder buttons aren't as good as those of the original controller though (personal taste, since I'm one of those who click them with the second phalange)
