    Old School Xbox Controllers

    I have a friend that is wanting a new old school Xbox controller (the huge ones), but we can't seem to find any place online that sells them. Any help?

    I have one that I never really use, I have 3 S controllers, should probably buy a 4th since none of my friends like to play with the huge one.

    The one thing I like better about the old one is the placement of the black & white buttons...I still forget they're there most of the time on the S Controller

    Yeah I suggest to him trading his S for and used old one, but he didn't like the idea of trading a brand new s-controller for a used controller.

    I don't play the Xbox much, but I do like the Controller S way more than the original controller. Most of the buds I know did too, so they sold their old ones on Ebay and got Controller S's instead. I guess Ebay might be a good way to go.

    I just bought the Eclipse Wireless XBOX controller from Pelican, normally I wouldn't buy third party controllers but I read a ton of great reviews for this one, and it feels just like an S, slightly bigger.

    The best thing, it's wireless, amd it puts to white and black buttons on the top of the controller as two extra shoulder buttons!

    The only thing the original controller was good as was a weapon. If you swing that baby around it can really do some damage.
