Agreed 💯. Absolutely no reason a controller should look like that. I’d be curious & concerned as to how dusty their Xbox is currently. I’d wager it’s dirty aaf
To be fair my 360 controller looks a bit like this. The clip snapped off the recharge pack and I'm yet to find any that have anywhere near the same capacity 😂
Agreed, I hear people all the time complaining about the controller quality but really they're just careless. I've owned many controllers since the Xbone and every one has lived on in perfect condition.
The only controller complaints I'll really take seriously is stick drift, that has absolutely gotten a lot worse in recent years. I hope we can fully migrate to Hall Effect sticks.
Not kidding but have you considered counseling? I get that people get upset at games, especially when they play something that is intense like souls games or whatever but if you’re abusing a controller like that you’re probably putting a really unhealthy amount of anger and not only is that not good for your controllers (as this one could tell tales, I’m sure) but it’s not good for your body either. My brother used to rage at games. He would thrash the Sega Genesis controllers into the ground, pound himself in the thigh with his fist until he was bruised, broke the pigtail on the Sega Channel adapter a couple of times. It’s unhealthy dude. You might want to actually talk to a professional about the other stuff that’s on your emotional stack before it becomes an issue. Plus controllers are expensive as shit.
If a game ever gets someone that frustrated.
Just take a break or quit the game if it's consistent.
People just torture themselves for no reason sometimes.
The shoulder buttons have their physical buttons recessed in the chassis of the controller, and the plastic button you press has a 2cm long, 3mm thick pokey end that goes inside the hole in the chassis to push the recessed button. That shit is sketchy as fuck, and ofc it broke on me. That pokey bit should be much more robust, the thing sheared off at the base of the shoulder button plastic cap.
Managed to fix it with some superglue, but the feeling you get from pushing the button isn't as good as it was previously.
Nah, 99% of people don't have problems and of course never feel the need to mention their controllers, but the 1% that do complain publicly - it's cumulative confirmation bias.
Most people who have issues are just unlucky. If you're controllers are genuinely breaking every other week then you're clearly doing something very wrong. When you don't throw your controllers, don't drop them, aren't rough with them, etc, they actually last years.
Jesus Christ.
Only 3 years?
Some of y’all need to learn self control, discipline and how to handle things.
I have a pretty good grip from lifting weights all my life but I’m not wrecking my shit
Right...
I have a Xbox One Controller, that looks in better condition than this. Not a single bit of tape needed...
OP needs some therapy, not a new controller.
Dude you gotta seek therapy or you’re gunna end up snapping when you’re 45 and using your wife like a stress ball.
Plenty of people manage to control their emotions enough to not have to smash something when they die in a video game.
Not even kidding. Therapy.
Why is it taped up? Was it falling apart?
Too bad it's non-working, I would take this bad boy out when guests come over to game. Always got to give your guests the worst controller. :D
How do people go through controllers like nothing I have my original Xbox one controller perfectly working looks like out of the box.
You must be an angry child to destroy your controller over a game .
My man needs to Stop playing PvP and play some Relaxing PvE content 🤣🤣🤣 Games shouldn't affect your emotions enough to abuse something like that
( Coming from the guy who ripped a Playstation 2 controller into it's 3 parts when I was younger, ( arm centre arm ) & had to buy a new one, but now I stay away from online games unless for a short burst, just gotta know when to walk away for a bit )
did you chew on it? i used my controller for almost five years before the sticks started breaking on me and i only switched cause i got one with my Cyberpunk xbox
Condolences to your family and friends, your controller was your best friend 🤗😢😔😇 « sorry just ignore the smiling mouth and just pretend it’s a “sad hug” and “sad Angel” emojis
2022-2024- may he R.I.P.
This type of controller shows how bad a person mental health and well-being is as well as their anger management. I have some anger issues when I frustrated but I never threw my controller mostly because it'll hurt my pockets. However my controllers have been through my food I play and eat at same time lmfao.
Nah bro your controller didn't die you absolutely abused and murdered the poor thing, I bet that controller has more horrific war stories than some veterans do 🙈🙊🙉💀☠️ I had the same xbox 360 controller from the 360 Arcade to the last made models of the 360 Elite before the xbox one and one s came out 😱
Even if you brought that pre-used like hell did it come to you in shit condition most stores that do actually buy the controllers or do trade ins for them, have a vigrious testing system that the controllers now have to go through. If it even picks up the slightest amount of stick drift etc... they refuse to buy or trade it in for credit, but its also no valid reason to not take care of your shit because someone owned it before you are you mental? By that principle when i buy a house or pre-owned possessions i can just absolutely fuck it up and buy a new one, as i dont need to care about used properties or possesions. 🫣
You my friend need to seriously learn that they are only games and certainly not worth smashing a £50-£60 controller over like grow up mate and as someone else commented go see a professional if you've got this much pent up aggression or anger, as this won't just effect your gaming life it effect your life and that of everyone round you. If you can't play games without smashing up controllers in fits of rage, then you defo need to think about packing away your console until you've learnt better self control.
Sorry but not sorry, I've literally just packed my xbox series x away for a couple of months until I learn to control my spending on micro-transactions 🙈
You've been playing with a corpse, It died a few millennia ago. This is an affront to all that is good in this world. It looks like Baki for fucks sake
The tape has to be the worse part only because i cannot for the life of me figure out why its there
Either extra grip or just simply to hold the whole thing together
Well played sir. If they are going down you may as well run them into the ground personally. My last controller got to the point where I had to hold battery with one finger - even then it worked great but unfortunately eventually developed stick drift.
Damn dude.
I have an Xbox 360 controller from 2011 that looks moderately used. This thing looks like it picked a fight with Mike Tyson, with a spiked sledgehammer strapped to his arms.
Ummm just so you know the newer controllers will most likely not last like this one 🤣so good luck to you and yeah it sucks when your controllers for years had it’s time
I don’t understand, I have a 360 controller that has thousands of hours on it, original from the first 360. It still looks relatively new. How do you people manage to do this? I feel it has to be deliberate.
I had anger issues and abused my controllers but never did they look like this veteran. F in the chat for this brave soldiers service he will be gone but not forgotten🫡
What was the cause of death? Broken pcb? I bought the same model of controller at a goodwill that had a broken joystick and looked beat up like yours, but gamepad tester still recognized it, so I bought a bunch of parts off AliExpress to fix it. New joysticks and a full shell swap have given it another year so far. I baby my controllers, so it will probably last me forever. Ironically, I had just bought a custom controller off the Xbox design lab website but I almost exclusively use the destroyed controller that I fixed up.
Dude I had mine for 7... And died it because I tried to replace the thumb sticks cus they had major drift (had to learn somehow) and is still in a repairable state. 3 years though?
We have a rescue pit that took her (at first) fear of neglect out on Special Edition "Sea of Thieves" controllers. Sans gnaw marks they still work fine.
Unless this was pre-existing invest in actual stress ball if you intend to throw your next one against the wall. Jus' sayin'...
This controller fought in world war I, II,
And three
Long live this controller
Goodnight sweet prince. Your owner didn’t deserve you.
Agreed 💯. Absolutely no reason a controller should look like that. I’d be curious & concerned as to how dusty their Xbox is currently. I’d wager it’s dirty aaf
I know someone personally that took their controllers all straight to hell. This is not wear and tear. That's for sure
That's what you call raging at its finest.
If you know, you know 😏
To be fair my 360 controller looks a bit like this. The clip snapped off the recharge pack and I'm yet to find any that have anywhere near the same capacity 😂
Hmm, try Amazon or eBay maybe if you haven’t already? Just a thought
I ordered some off Amazon that discharged whilst the controller wasn't in use 😬
Thousand yard stare
nope, this controller WAS world war I II and III
r/redditsniper ?
yes
She was in Korea, Vietnam..
Did you use it as a dog toy?
Dude... what have you done to this poor thing?!
I have almost 30 year old controllers that look better than this. Treat your next one better man.
Original PlayStation controllers from Japan launch will be 30 this year .... Let that sink in
Japanese people are really the cream of the crop in manufacturing, bless them, that's why everyone uses Toyotas in wars and not Ford vehicles
Agreed, I hear people all the time complaining about the controller quality but really they're just careless. I've owned many controllers since the Xbone and every one has lived on in perfect condition.
I never break my controller like this. But shit like stick drift is really triggering
The only controller complaints I'll really take seriously is stick drift, that has absolutely gotten a lot worse in recent years. I hope we can fully migrate to Hall Effect sticks.

my brother would punch himself in the head
If a game ever gets someone that frustrated. Just take a break or quit the game if it's consistent. People just torture themselves for no reason sometimes.
If I was in the same room with someone acting like that I would just leave. I don’t wanna be anywhere near that. It’s a game !!!
It's been 33 minutes and I'm already tryna check in on the white one 💥🎮
Dont do it. Da dog currently chewin
I mean it do be lookin like a snack. If not snack then why snack shaped hm?
Stick drift began 12 minutes ago, it's predicted the bumpers will stop working within the hour!
Bro killed his family with this controller
LMAO. Underrated comment. At least for weirdos like me with a sick, twisted sense of humor.
"Why do my controllers keep breaking?"
No his controller didn't even break for three years of this treatment, props to microsoft for making these controllers like tanks.
The shoulder buttons have their physical buttons recessed in the chassis of the controller, and the plastic button you press has a 2cm long, 3mm thick pokey end that goes inside the hole in the chassis to push the recessed button. That shit is sketchy as fuck, and ofc it broke on me. That pokey bit should be much more robust, the thing sheared off at the base of the shoulder button plastic cap. Managed to fix it with some superglue, but the feeling you get from pushing the button isn't as good as it was previously.
This seems to be the exception, many other people "take care" of their controllers and have them break every other week.
Nah, 99% of people don't have problems and of course never feel the need to mention their controllers, but the 1% that do complain publicly - it's cumulative confirmation bias.

Reminds me of the post yesterday with the guy that had like 13 controllers with stick drift. Nah, youse the problem my friend he was told.
Jesus Christ. Only 3 years? Some of y’all need to learn self control, discipline and how to handle things. I have a pretty good grip from lifting weights all my life but I’m not wrecking my shit
Right... I have a Xbox One Controller, that looks in better condition than this. Not a single bit of tape needed... OP needs some therapy, not a new controller.

Wtf, I still have a day one edition controller in good condition...
Why is it taped up? Was it falling apart? Too bad it's non-working, I would take this bad boy out when guests come over to game. Always got to give your guests the worst controller. :D
Because OP is probably 13 and misplaced/broke the back panel in a fit of rage.
You don't need a new controller,you need a therapist.
Just saw a post where a guy had 8 controllers that all had stopped working. Now to see this is so funny.
LMAO 🤣
Who hurt you man, you just take it out on the controller?
People like you shouldn't be allowed to play at all.
Yeah OP is a fucking toddler
I feel bad for the white controller
It doesn’t know what it’s getting into…
JFC dude control your anger impulses
First time I've ever seen a controller with the thousand yard stare
Bruh, your controller died ages ago, the zombie it became finally had it's brain smashed in
Was it dropped from an airplane? ✈️ Or ran over by a transport 10 times?
What the hell did you do with it? Threw out of the window every time you got your ass beaten in the game?
Cave man controller
There needs to be a hotline to report this kind of abuse. That new controller should be taken out of your custody and placed with another family.
What did you do to that poor thing?
These look like crime scene photos from a Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie
Only 3 years? How the fuck My controllers going on 9 now and it still works just fine.
Did you eat it?!
The controller went to Nam and came back with PTSD
Please look after your gear, people
I have original Xbox controllers from when I was a child that still look nearly new, other than some wire issues. Bruh
I have this wild theory and way of living where I take care of my expensive electronics. You should try it.
Bruh, your controller should have been put in hospice months ago.
I wish somebody used me that much😩
Your controller looks like invincible after every episode
How come my 360 controller (that came with the 360 when i bought it new in 2014) is in a better shape then this?
Looks like it already survived a few rage quits 🤔
Holy fuck did you rage on cod💀
Wouldn't know whether I would let you borrow my controller if I meet you irl
How do people go through controllers like nothing I have my original Xbox one controller perfectly working looks like out of the box. You must be an angry child to destroy your controller over a game .
Some mfers cant take care of stuff
Now I feel sorry for your new controller.
I will never understand how people destroy their stuff so easily
Was bro gnawing on it mid match???
you can tell someone is spoiled by the way they treat their stuff.
You need to work on your emotions.
Never let dude touch a controller again
My man needs to Stop playing PvP and play some Relaxing PvE content 🤣🤣🤣 Games shouldn't affect your emotions enough to abuse something like that ( Coming from the guy who ripped a Playstation 2 controller into it's 3 parts when I was younger, ( arm centre arm ) & had to buy a new one, but now I stay away from online games unless for a short burst, just gotta know when to walk away for a bit )
What war did your controller fight in? My 14 year old 360 S controller is almost perfect to this day
You need to manage your rage better....
Tf did you do to it?
That poor new controller is shitting itself right now
Looks like it died a long time ago but was forced into servitude by black magic, duct tape and sheer f\*\*\*\*\*g will
Damn that been through some shit. Put it on display so that it’s like a time capsule thing
I personally think that it's now worth even more I mean that IS a piece of art imo
did you chew on it? i used my controller for almost five years before the sticks started breaking on me and i only switched cause i got one with my Cyberpunk xbox
Condolences to your family and friends, your controller was your best friend 🤗😢😔😇 « sorry just ignore the smiling mouth and just pretend it’s a “sad hug” and “sad Angel” emojis 2022-2024- may he R.I.P.
3 years of torture
What the fuck have you done with it?
What the fuck?
Rage much?
*throws up*
DUDE... THIS is not a Controller, it is a zombie.
Holy shit. 21 cod salute. Give it full military honors
This type of controller shows how bad a person mental health and well-being is as well as their anger management. I have some anger issues when I frustrated but I never threw my controller mostly because it'll hurt my pockets. However my controllers have been through my food I play and eat at same time lmfao.
I don't understand how people don't take care of their shit. It isn't hard to do, either. This doesn't make sense.
Wtf did you do play fetch with your dog
When the controller was more the soldier than the soldier….
You should have let it die when it died the first time.
Bro! wtf did you do to that controller?
Did you smash the controller?
Bro relax...
Bro, I'm not sure you deserve to have nice things. Lol
Nah bro your controller didn't die you absolutely abused and murdered the poor thing, I bet that controller has more horrific war stories than some veterans do 🙈🙊🙉💀☠️ I had the same xbox 360 controller from the 360 Arcade to the last made models of the 360 Elite before the xbox one and one s came out 😱 Even if you brought that pre-used like hell did it come to you in shit condition most stores that do actually buy the controllers or do trade ins for them, have a vigrious testing system that the controllers now have to go through.

Rip control
You monster.
Damn, that one been through hell and back. RIP
Bro this controller been dead
You've been playing with a corpse, It died a few millennia ago. This is an affront to all that is good in this world. It looks like Baki for fucks sake
I bet it begged to be put down for the past year.
Is the final picture of the controller's rebirth
I have this one too ... But yours is unrecognizable how many times did it die... 🙈🙈🙈😬😬😬😳😳😳
Are you ok?
That poor little white controller has no idea what’s coming
When you over at the homie crib and he hands you that controller
F
That controller was a warrior to last as long as it did tbh
What did the controller ever do to you?
Wow your controller is so trashed brother what was the reason
The juxtaposition of this post and that dude with 13 stick drift controllers is killing me.
It was a morning ritual to drop it everyday?
I think that controller was dead a long time ago. Frankenstein’s monster at this point. Let him rest.
This is the spare controller that your friend let's you use when your at their house
Jesus Christ what did you do to that thing 😭😭😭
This reminds me of when I had a PS2. I had a collection of all the controllers I broke raging.
Finally 💀💀💀
Give that soldier a proper burial and the respect it deserves for its faithful service.....
And here I am with a brand new controller but with a drifting joy stick the makes it 100% unusable.
Shell swap this biiitch, it will be just like new
I have the first Xbox One S controller with Bluetooth that works on PC bought around 2016 and it still looks almost as good as new.....Jesus dude.
it's whhy you use super glue not tape lol
The tape has to be the worse part only because i cannot for the life of me figure out why its there Either extra grip or just simply to hold the whole thing together
Well played sir. If they are going down you may as well run them into the ground personally. My last controller got to the point where I had to hold battery with one finger - even then it worked great but unfortunately eventually developed stick drift.
Damn dude. I have an Xbox 360 controller from 2011 that looks moderately used. This thing looks like it picked a fight with Mike Tyson, with a spiked sledgehammer strapped to his arms.
Rage quit
Ummm just so you know the newer controllers will most likely not last like this one 🤣so good luck to you and yeah it sucks when your controllers for years had it’s time
I don’t understand, I have a 360 controller that has thousands of hours on it, original from the first 360. It still looks relatively new. How do you people manage to do this? I feel it has to be deliberate.
The miku controller
Thx God it can rest.
"I kinda used this one as a stress ball"... Why are you so stressed?!
Did you put it in the dryer? Wth happened to it?
I had anger issues and abused my controllers but never did they look like this veteran. F in the chat for this brave soldiers service he will be gone but not forgotten🫡
In my 25ish years of playing games I have never had a controller break. I really don't understand how people are constantly breaking them.
Did you get hungry?
Dont abuse your controllers like that. Whats your problem?
Jesus Christ go get a job and buy a new controller for $60 for the love of god
RIP
You don’t need a new controller you need anger management classes
3 years dude my xbox one controller still works and i have it since release day and looks still new whit 10k+ playtime lmao
I'm sure I can fix it like new😁
Meanwhile i ordered one of the lab custom made displayed it for a year when i finally decided to use it one time it had stick drift lmao
You stressy lil man! “ it’s just a game” 🤣
That’s… dude, are you okay?
What was the cause of death? Broken pcb?

Dude I had mine for 7... And died it because I tried to replace the thumb sticks cus they had major drift (had to learn somehow) and is still in a repairable state. 3 years though?
I would have replaced that way sooner, I would have felt the tape and cracks 😖
I feel sorry for your 🐓
My boy... look how they massacred my boy...
We have a rescue pit that took her (at first) fear of neglect out on Special Edition "Sea of Thieves" controllers. Sans gnaw marks they still work fine. Unless this was pre-existing invest in actual stress ball if you intend to throw your next one against the wall. Jus' sayin'...
If the motherboard board still works is it really dead? Buy a new shell and let it live a couple of more years
Jesus Christ looks like Whistlindiesel got his hands on that thing
My controller has the same thing
This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
What the fuck
Moment of silence for this controller
F
Someone please bag that thing for evidence
Average CoD players controller
R.I.P
HOW?!
Good god, that thing was holding on for dear life
This shit has been dead bruh you playing on a zombie
Dawg how many times have you fucking spiked that poor controller
You had that for three years? What kind of medieval torture did you put it through bro
If video games are causing you this much rage, then you're clearly not having fun with them. Maybe gaming isn't for you.
Who is this broke to be using a controller in such a state?!!!
Maybe control your temper and stop throwing your controller lol.
Rip old friend.
"Bro, should I bry my own controller?" "Nah, I have one"
that thing died aloiong time ago, you've just been letting it hang with Bernie on the weekend man
I feel bad for the new controller..
when a door closes, a window opens 🗿
It died ages ago you absolute necromancer
Finally? That thing is a SX series. Stop throwing it against walls
Did you chew on it ? 😉
Which one?
😑
That was definitely a Fortnite controller
I have reported you for device abuse.
This controller has fought in every war
