This Gears of War limited-edition Xbox controller stands out for its detailed shell, with 3D etching and raised features that make it feel more special than a simple color swap. The design is getting praise as a collector piece, and the themed look is the main draw at this price. The biggest criticism is the power setup, since it uses AA batteries or a separate rechargeable pack instead of an included rechargeable battery. Stick drift and sticky triggers also come up as durability concerns, so its appeal depends on whether you value the finish more than long-term hardware confidence.
Xbox players who prefer replaceable AA or rechargeable batteries, because the controller can run on standard batteries or a rechargeable pack instead of a built-in battery.
Players who want a controller they can keep repairing over time, because the battery is replaceable and the shell can be opened for part swaps.
Collectors who want a limited-edition controller with standout surface details, because the 3D etching and raised features make it feel more special than a simple color swap.
Players who want a controller with long-term stick reliability, because stick drift can show up within weeks and make the controller feel disposable.
Players who want an all-in-one rechargeable controller, because it does not include a built-in rechargeable battery and instead relies on separate battery options.
Players who hate trigger wear, because the trigger damper can deteriorate and make the right trigger stick badly enough to leave the controller unusable.

You can put in a loop batteries in there, lithium batteries, regular alkaline batteries or a rechargeable pack that cost more. One thing's for certain I can take apart my Xbox controllers replace parts and never have to worry about a lithium battery that will be harder to source.
Some people just do not understand how we are leading to a world that everything we own is built with limited use. We've gone so far back to now we're in a state where we don't even own our media anymore. And these places can limit when you can download or ever. Don't think all these conveniences are for our good.

it's even funnier that you're claiming they're defending Sony as if they're the only company who uses rechargeable batteries in their controllers, when that's literally the exact opposite: Micro$oft is the only company who still uses AA batteries in their controllers. Nintendo, Sony, 8bitdo, literally every single other company uses rechargeable batteries because they're way more convenient. And most people who use the Xbox controllers end up buying rechargeable battery packs anyways.
there is certainly a fanboy here, and it's you
Xbox controller can use AA batteries or plenty of other packs that can charge just fine.
Instead, the other controllers may have convenience out of the box, but the next time you need to replace batteries, you'll need to hope a battery exist or isn't some cheap third party with risk of fire AND break out that screwdriver.
In other words, people aren't complaining rechargeable batteries. They're complaining about the non user replaceable battery and the intent to make it unnecessarily e-waste so you'll buy a new one.
