Those who say the controllers work well enough for their 360 kids are just not paying attention as parents or caregivers. Serious. I'm a 30 year old parent of two who was thrilled to get a red and white copy of the 360 controller as the reviews seemed great. All you have to do is plug them into your computer and compare them to a real 360 controller wired the same way and you have it. These controllers have so much dead space in the analog sticks that precise movement on them is impossible. Terrible.
