Team Xbox gives it a 9.5 (http://hardware.teamxbox.com/articles/xbox/900/Intec-Mini-Wireless-Controller-Review/p1)
As with any wireless controller, don’t expect this to be a viable option for use while playing on Xbox Live. With thememory card/communicatorslots being housed on the wireless transmitter, there is really no way to use a wireless controller foronline gamesaside from purchasing a separate wireless headset; too pricey an option for most gamers. For all-around gaming however, the Intec Mini is solid.
When you add up the positives for Intec’s Mini Wireless controller, it’s hard NOT to recommend that everybody at least give it a try. If you simply refuse to use third-party stuff, then there’s no selling you, but we think that many gamers will be impressed at this type of quality in a controller below forty bucks. Throw in 2.4Ghz wireless technology, a turbo function, selectable vibration settings, and a standard S button layout, and you can see why we like this thing so much. We’re guessing all of those women’s mags are wrong - size doesn’t always matter.
