This thing is a goddamn design marvel. Each individual piece, from the thumbsticks to the d-pads, can be pulled out with zero resistance and replaced with accompanying options of varying weight, design, and appeal. The sheer ease in which you can do this almost makes the whole thing seem flimsy, but the heft and metal finish are a good reminder that no, this is a luxe product and these are intentional design choices. Perhaps, in the same way you might suspend one game and pop into another on the Xbox, you might decide you need a totally different set of tools for the rest of your gaming night. Two sets of paddles on the back, combined with multiple programmable button configurations, also mean that you can go full esports if you want. Pro-tip, you wanna make it so you can aim, shoot, reload, jump, and switch weapons without actually lifting any of your fingers. Also, I hear a warranty is a good idea. – Patricia Hernandez
