uhh.gif

as it was said before the system was built for the ground up with wireless in mind.  they have done everything they could do to make that simple for you (if an indicator on your controller isnt good enough i dont know what is) and if you dont like it you can still have up to 3 wired controllers to play with friends.  

honestly i like the wireless idea and if any of my friends want to play split screen then they can buy their own damn controller and bring it over.  

you get a play and charge kit for $20 and play to your hearts content, whats the big deal??

yea theyre alot of nitpickers round here, i remember the digital buttons thread.......ppl were cry over the lack of analog buttons in the controller and there was the "i want to use the original xbox controller on the 360" thread. Each consisting of over 3 pages! blink.gif

Theyre some of the posters in this thread that was part of those threads too but im not gonna call any names, the nitpickers know themselves tongue.gif

The only game I've ever played for 25 hours (almost) straight would be Perfect Dark when it came out, but even then we took sleeping/eating/getting some damn exercise breaks! Enough time to charge up your batteries!

rolleyes.gif ) always have juice.  If you can't figure that out then put down the controller and go read a book cause you need some education.

I'll agree with the fact MS should have put in more ports, and the way they want us to pay more for recharging cables, but it's still not a problem when it comes down to playing games. For the price of charging cables for all the controllers you could buy several packs of batteries and a cheap recharger!

you get a full session of gaming on a full charge.  If that isn't sufficient then space out your charging so everyone is happy... start with one plugged in... then in 8 hours put someone else in... 8 hours later some one else... then everyone is happy and you freaks that play 24/7 (that's more than 1% right rolleyes.gif ) always have juice.  If you can't figure that out then put down the controller and go read a book cause you need some education.

I play for 60 hours straight with 4 friends all the time with wireless controllers.  I can't afford the external battery pack charger device, a USB hub or AA batteries plus all 4 of us need to charge our the controllers at the exact same time. Why didn't MS think of this situation?
