User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars seems rushed
bought this when i first got my 360, thinking like the previous reviewer, that it would somehow “hook” to this stand for added stability. such is not the case.

my 360 is loud, but never gets super warm, even with the games along its sides. still, its a good point brought up.

what annoys me the most however is that even with normal sized cases, even sliding them in carefully, it peels the clear plastic outside off the bottom edge of the cases, which is highly annoying, especially since i like to cycle games im playing through the stand. so now some games have a big plastic fold at the bottom, which not only looks crappy, prevents a nice alignment of cases.

overall, its really a waste of time and money, at any price.

1 Star Not a great idea…
The Xbox360 needs as much airflow around it as it can get. It’s not wise to stack games right next to it and block the side vents. It looks pretty but is probably best to avoid this stand.

2 Stars Cheaply made.
This stand isn’t all that great. The picture on the box makes one think that the Xbox 360 somehow hooks onto it, but instead it’s just sitting on it. That’s not very secure, so this thing won’t stop your Xbox from falling over. Also, the game storage doesn’t allow for larger-than-normal cases; if you have the limited edition of Perfect Dark Zero, it doesn’t fit in the game storage. Other than that, if you want somewhere to put your games and your Xbox, this works.

5 Stars Christmas gift used daily
Bought this for my son for Christmas. He uses it almost everyday. The red is a great color (matches his wall). Doesn’t show dirt as much as the white. Wireless is great. He has had it for 6 months now and so far it still works great.

2 Stars M$ ripoff again.
Microsoft is the shadiest company on the planet. I swear they make these things with the intent of having them break like glass. It’s not like a wireless controller some new invention. They don’t even have the typical variety of colors, if you want anything but white and black, you need to buy a special edition xbox to go with it.

It’s about time they sell a red controller solo, but of course it’s not just the controller, you have to buy the charger kit that comes with it too. Yet I can’t get a replacement for my Halo edition green controller or buy any cool ‘ice’ controllers (see through chasis) which Sony has offered for over a decade. God forbid you try to mod the thing, M$ uses security pins in all the wireless controllers to prevent you from customizing or repairing the equipment you paid $50 for.

I’m glad I bought a 360 but it’s such a hassle to replace these crappy controllers after only a few short months. If there were any viable 3rd party option (Saitek is mostly a PC gamepad and MAdCatz has sucked for ages) I’d go with them in a heartbeat.

360: A+

360 peripherals: C-

4 Stars Good so far, but feels cheaply made.
My favorite color is red, so naturally I wanted this controller as soon as I saw it. The first one I purchased was broken, though; the battery pack would not hold a charge. After exchanging it for another it has worked well enough, although it feels a bit lighter and more cheaply made than my other 360 controllers. I have a feeling they’ve started using cheaper materials to cut costs. Overall, I suppose I don’t have any real complaints about the controller, and the red color is very sexy. Just make sure to save your receipt in case yours doesn’t work when you get it home!

5 Stars Does what it should
No surprises here. It does exactly the same things as any other Xbox controller, which is a good thing. These controllers are much more comfortable than the PS3 ones, and feel heftier too. This comes with a rechargeable pack, as well as the insert to use conventional AAs. Very good product.

5 Stars RED ROCKS!!
Bought for my husband. Same controller…color is so vibrant. Very sleek. Comes with charger. Great controller for those who love red like my husband!
