so I decided to put The Outer Worlds down for now, and started playing Nier: Automata.

i know it is a older game, but oh man I am glad I did. This is a gem, and the soundtrack is so good.
About 4 hours in, and I will definitely be putting many more in

For me it was the opposite. I enjoyed The Outer Worlds a lot but didn't like Nier: Automata at all. I've now played two of the Nier games and people love them and I thought I would too. But they just aren't my kind of games.

Funny enough that is exactly what put me off the regular Red and Blue ones..... not a fan of the green either :D

Have a White controller that came with Series S and man is that a dirt magnet.

Strange decision to make them two-tone - if you're gonna go with an alternative colour go the whole hog dammit!

Already got the green one thanks, my wife made me go get it the day it arrived at BT Games. So now I've got Carbon Black, Robot White, Shock Blue and Volt. The two coloured ones actually feel a bit different to the standard too. But I like my Shock Blue one.

Anyone else had issues with the Controller Right Trigger feeling sticky and getting stuck?

Bought an Xbox Series S on Thursday, and already having issues with the Controller.

My first ever Console so not very happy, did an RMA on Microsoft but will need to wait over two weeks for a new remote, but need to send my broken remote tomorrow.

So will not be able to use the Xbox during this time.

Go buy another controller, it's always good to have 2, maybe 3, perhaps 4 controllers.
I had 4 with my 360, 4 with my Xbox One and 4 with my Series.

I just dropped 7K on the console so not really keen on spending another R1500 for a controller, the plan was to get one eventually.

I will need to get one, otherwise the console will be a paper weight.

I know, but odd that they want you to send it to MS? Nornally that's only after 2 weeks.

Yeah its so dumb, like you have to send it first, once they receive it then only will they send a replacement.

I wanted to post a pic, but not sure how to.

Who did you buy from? (Name em bad ones)

Some suppliers normally just do a strait swap?

I bought it from Incredible Connection and thought doing the RMA online will be easier than going back. It would have probably been easier to go back to Incredible Connection.

No fault of Incredible Connection, I should have taken it back.

Shop around (Hi online, Avo, Takealot) - the plain controller is often on special for around 1000
