Microsoft's Xbox Elite Controller was already one of the best joysticks on the market. We've been playing with the Elite Series 2 over the past month and have come away seriously impressed with the improvements that Microsoft has managed to make to the original.

My only real question is, are the bumpers made better than the elite series 1? I know I'm not the only one who bought the first elite controller only to have both the LB and RB break within a month of ownership, and won't be purchasing a new one until I'm assured that it won't happen again. The price was much too high to be so poorly built.
