Really cool!! 1 Aug 2007
Fun:   
Dont listen to people going on about how its just "a wired controller, wireless is the whole point"..... just see this for what it is... Picture this, and its happened to me, which convinced me to buy it, your in the middle of an online match on rainbow six, you spot an enemy and spring into action, pull the right trigger, your certain to pop the guy in the head, "please reconnect your controller".....and bang, your dead.... you try as hard as you can.. but nope... the controllers dead... so you have to swan off to get some batterys and get killed about 4 million times and just cant get back into it.... with this, you check your battery life... if its about to die.... then plug it in.. when its charged pull it out.... so its wired for about an hour tops.... so its not defying the point of having a wireless controller.... its defying the point of spening money of batterys.... how expensive are batterys by the way... scandalous!!!

It makes sense to buy it ...

Its a no-brainer really. If you have wireless contollers then get this. It comes of course with a rechargeable battery. If you have multiple wireless controllers then buy multiple rechargeable batteries. You will only need the one play and charge kit.

Playing whilst charging is made easy thanks to the exceptionally long cable.

A Handy Bit of Kit 20 Dec 2005
By Mr. Martyn Poole VINE™ VOICE
While rechargeable batteries last longer then this packs 25 Hour game play, this (for me) is a really essential bit of equipment. You can plug it into the front USB slot and into the controller and play while you are playing. This is a main thing for me as the controller gives you loads of warning that the battery is dying, giving you time to plug it into the console and carry on playing.

The wire is nearly as long as the xbox cable, giving you plenty of space.

Not sure if mines faulty
I had a play and charge kit for the original 360 model and done recall it being this crap.

A 2 hour charge supposedly gives up to 32 hours of usage......RUBBISH. Read more

It worked, but it wasn't the official thing...
When I bought the product I assumed I'd be receiving an "Xbox 360 Play and Charge Kit by Microsoft" (as stated on the page) yet what I was delivered was a cheap unbranded version. Read more

Charge kit
Saves you potentially hundreds on battery replacements. Fits all controllers so cheap, fast delivery and still works the same as the day it was bought!! AWESOME!

Everyone who owns an xbox should get one of these. The amount of money I've spent on batteries is just crazy this is a must buy.

Works perfectly
Who could ask for anything more? When your battery is fully charged you can remove the cable and use your controller hands-free. Read more
