What's your preference when playing your games? And, is there any lagg in the wireless, or the wired? As for me, i like wireless as the wired are a trip hazard and because of the placement of my Xbox 360 console, i'd probably end up sitting on the carpet to play the games. Not being a little kid, that wouldn't be comfortable.  So nothing but wireless for me. _________________ChatLoungeBB

I don't really think that the Wireless controllers have any lag in them they are just as responsive as the wired controllers in my opinion, I don't know if anyone is so anal as to notice any slight unresponsiveness from a wireless as opposed to wired. I love wireless cause I usually sit almost across the room from my xbox to play

Wireless for sure, I don't think there's any major disadvantages of them. With wired, however, they seem to go out quicker (at least they have for me), and you can't play them under a blanket like I do in the winter time! :(

It doesn't really matter to me. I'm close enough to the TV to use a wired controller so that doesn't really bother me. I like using wired because if they're always plugged in, I can't lose them. XD Plus they're cheaper too. So for these reasons I usually use a wired controller.

Wireless is better, but I have one that you can plug in and it charges while you play and that doesn't bother me at all :) Much better than my previous controller where you needed to change batteries  Now it's just a matter of pause the game, take a few steps and go back to playing _________________

I would have to agree with the wireless because you are not restricted to a certain range, I tend to move a lot when playing a video game cause I dont always stay comfortable and my bed is usually not very close to the TV

I much prefer using a wireless controllers, however I make sure I use re-chargeable battery packs and try not to eat up too many batteries. It does get annoying if your online and it runs out of charge though, it's happened to me a few times, but you can just stick the lead in a play wired for a while it doen't put me off.

A wired one is more convenient to me while playing games, because i am very uncomfortable with the batteries and all that stuff, and i don't get much time for charging the batteries, though i use the wired one.

Currently I have a wireless controller that is plugged in to the wired charger when I play. The reason I do this is because currently i have no batteries in it. But when I get some new batteries in it i'll play wireless and then when it gets low reconnect it to the charger.

Controllers with wires are a pain. Wireless controllers are way way better.

I have to use wireless now because my wired is a bit messed up. It doesn't load when I charge so I have to use the wire to be able to play :(

Not if you use rechargeable batteries and then use a chargeable adapter on it so that you can play wired for a bit to charge the battery but then after that you can play wireless until the battery needs charging again. Therefore goes through no batteries at all.

Well I mean that it doesn't use batteries of this kind  But anyway when I plug in the wire it doesn't charge it. It always is low. But when I plug it in and play it works just fine. I don't really get it It shouldn't load when playing then either. _________________
