Modded Controllers All The Rave?

By Carlos Reyes


It's unusual, in most cases gaming companies like Nintendo and Sony allow companies to make 3rd party controllers. For reasons behind their wireless technology, Microsoft does not. For a modded controller company like ourselves at moddedcontrollers.com, it isn't a big deal, but for your regular consumer, it's unfortunate that their options are limited to one, buying their controllers squarely from Microsoft.

There could be a number of reasons for this. Perhaps they don't want anyone with rapid fire buttons for a balanced online experience. Whatever the reason, third party controllers simply aren't allowed.

Since third parties can't make controllers it become an obvious outcome that modded controller companies would do so well. Gamers of all levels love them. Rapid fire is great because it will increase your firing rate while a jitter mod transforms burst weapons into semi-automatics, modded controllers have a range of functions. Our favorite mod feature for modded controllers is the simple stealth mod. These mods can be turned on/off with a secret switch on the controller that makes the controller appear as non modded. It's fun to beat opponents and leave them without words.

You aren't limited to gameplay enhancing mods, you can get mods that just make your controller look different. These mods are just cool to have. Get a mod that includes LEDs behind each of the face buttons to light up as you play. A controller modded for your favorite game with a custom look easily pays for itself.

The XCM controller shells are nice because they don't just mod complex functions into your controller, but they also feature a new d-pad that's larger then the original. It makes it more accurate and just more fun to use.


Put your doubts to rest, modded controllers deserve a chance. You'll be dumbfounded after their initial use. They feel great and help you fully enjoy your overall game play experience.
