| May 3, 2013 at 20:39 | comment | added | grem | I don't know if it's a knockoff, I'm wondering that too but I want to know if the battery packs not working (as they are official and work in all my other controllers) indicates a knockoff or if there's a different issue with the controller. Eg. Maybe it's the Europe/Asia variant of a 360 controller and that's why it a) looks different (hologram) and b) won't work with my charge packs | |

| May 3, 2013 at 16:54 | comment | added | SevenSidedDie | Perhaps the title should be edited to "Is this controller a knock-off?", since that's the bulk of the question. | |

| Apr 29, 2013 at 2:42 | comment | added | grem | the only thing that is grey is the mic port and the plug and play port, the guide button is glossy (chrome instead of the silver/grey), everything else (triggers, left and right stick, dpad, bumpers - even the mic trim) is black. maybe its an old style board in the new colours to appear new? i'm not sure. | |
| Apr 28, 2013 at 23:17 | comment | added | Adeese | re: gray mic port. Could you just have bought an old style controller (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Xbox-360-Controller-Black.jpg), and are comparing it to a new style controller (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Xbox-360-S-Controller.png)? One way to tell is the guide button is glossy on the new style controller. | |
