Looking at the internet
Can you imagine going back to wired controllers now? It makes so much difference not having leads all over your living room and being able to sit back (the old xbox ones were about 2 foot short of stopping me having to lean forward!).

It's a bit like power steering, takes 5 mins to get so used to it, it's a chore going back!
 
No, I'd hate to have to use a wired pad now.

One of my main likes about wireless, apart from the freedom, is that you no longer have an ugly wire coming out the front of your console, make it lok much cleaner.
 
I'm sure cable related accidents may reduce also :) Albeit my cat isn't impressed with the lack of the lead as she used to love ripping out the old xbox ones when I was in bed :)
 
personally, I still find myself leaning forward as if still tied to the hardware. no idea why, but sitting back just doesn't feel right :/
 
O I love the wireless, especially with the headphone attached. During a quick recap of the game or a talk, I can nip into the kitchen and make a coffee whilst still joining into the conversation.

Love it, I simply can't go back to a wired one now.
 
Love 'em.

I had a Core at first, so i obviously didn't mind the wires. Got my premium a few weeks later, and i immediately fell in love with the wireless pads. The play and charge is great too. My battery is still on its first charge, and i've had it about a fortnight.
 
My 'box is on my desk, so, I had the controller plugged into the port on the rear :D looked nice and tidy :)

I don't need the wireless range, but I got a wireless pad as a second controller - yes, it does feel wierd having a wire [when I'm back on the wired pad] :)
 
Quite enjoy having a wireless controller but since where the Xbox is and where the sofa is, I could use a wired controller quite comfortably

Aye, still do too. I've tried leaning back and relaxing but I become instantly rubbish (ok I wasn't great to begin with...).
 
I think the wireless is great, you can sit anywhere as you don't need to only sit as far as the cable will reach, and you don't have any cables irritating you while your playing. :)
 
The kids think its amazing when I can go downstairs and i'm still driving around on PGR3 on my xbox upstairs lol
 
Not that fussed. I like the light-weight feel of the wired controllers, I also like the fact that I don't have to A) buy a new piece of hardware to charge them or B) worry about batteries.

Either way.
 
It's great, it means I can walk into the kitchen and carry on talking to whoever I'm playing against on Live whilst I grab myself a drink :)

I don't sit far from my Xbox but I still prefer the wireless pad, less wires is a good thing in my house.
 
wireless controllers mean I can put my 360 into my TV stand which is semi enclosed and therefore cuts down on a load of noise. The fact that you can switch the xbox on and off via the remote controllers just amazes me too...brilliant idea. I have two of them and use high capacity ni-mh's (2500mah) and I haven't had to change/charge them once yet. Have always got loads fully charged around the house anyway for use with me Savage 25.
 
Love the controllers, not just the wireless but the way they feel.

Only thing i find a bit pointless, is the fact that you are using a wired headset.... just seems to lose the wireless theme a bit
 
I think they're great, when I first got it I found myself lifting my legs over the wire that would have been there if I got up to go somewhere.
