The official Xbox controller is on sale for $44

The official Xbox controller is on sale for close to a record low price. The white, red and black versions have dropped to $44, while other colorways are available for $49.

Being able to switch to another gamepad when the battery runs out is always welcome, and you don't want to be caught short when a buddy wants to hop into a local multiplayer game with you. The Xbox Wireless Controller is a great choice of gamepad for multiple platforms, and you can currently pick one up for close to a record low. The peripheral also pairs easily with Windows PC, phones and tablets via Bluetooth, while the dedicated Share button for capturing screenshots and gameplay clips is handy.
