I am very impressed with this thing, it seems to truly have zero lag time. It took me awhile to realize it was RF and not IR, which is an added bonus. I'm just wandering how long the batteries will last.

I do like how you can shutdown the Xbox with it when you're done gaming.

    has there ever been an IR video game controller? that would be pretty annoying having to point it at the console the whole time.

    I have this too. I haven't really noticed any lag time either.

    there were a few around for some game consoles, i've heard horror stories and one retarded friend of mine tried to tell me the 360 controllers were IR... I love the controllers and i like the rechargable packs they sell for them, thats what i use, charge lasts a while and when it needs charging you just plug it into the front of the console and keep playing. you'll just have a wired controller for a while - very nice indeed...
