Hey guys today i thought i would go out and buy an Argos WildFire Controler and here is my view on it.

I would rate this controller 6 - 7.5 / 10, i like it but the only thing that dosent work for me is the way you need to press the turbo button, one time you press it you hae a fairly good mod, and after you cycle through the mods back to the begining and start again you have the akimbo mod, which is really annoying.

Another thing i dont like about this controller is that, it has a kinda different shape to the standard xbox 360 pad, for example when you hold the pad, it seems much fatter and hard to get your hand around. I also do not like the triggers, i dont know wether it takes time to wear them in but they seem quite stiff when first using them.

Altogether i would say there a great mod for beginers but if you allready have a good mod and looking for another i wouldn't suggest this mod, as this is the first mod iv'e used i would say its great for beginers i have had my friend who has a much faster mod to come around and give his opinion on these and he said that he wouldn't preffer buying one of these seen as though he has one quite faster.

Prices Are £20 From Argos's In The UK

Thanks For Reading.

Adam

the only thing i REALLY hate is that it wont power my TurtleBeach, so i have to wear the crappy standard/broken mic over the top for people to hear me, even then the quality is very poor.

This doesn't need to be stickied, however, if you were to make a lot of reviews, then maybe a sticky

i have one and agree with the 7.5, just not for the reasons given

i liked how the triggers are harder to pull, they feel more realistic,
i like how its alot bigger, just like the original xbox controllers, then complants were filed and they made a smaller version, remember that, we're talking the very first xbox,

the only thing i REALLY hate is that it wont power my TurtleBeach, so i have to wear the crappy standard/broken mic over the top for people to hear me, even then the quality is very poor.

OK, so, i havent tested this but i think the only reason my TurtleBeach doesnt work, is because i broke my X1's, so now i only have my spare XLC's which dont need external power, however, this seems to make them fail in my argos controller, you could buy it and hope that it works, but theres no guarantee,

i even opened it up after 20minutes of use to see if the headphone port was connected, and is was, thats how bad the voice quality is
