I have played my XBOX a lot! I have noticed recently that my controller isn't recording my actions as it did earlier in my XBOX life. Nowadays, when I press a button, that particular button might not work and I will have to press it again. This is not that big of a deal, but it has loosed me some tight ones. I have heard that other people have had problems with their RB button but I seem to have this with most of them now! My A, X, RB, RT, and B. Now those are pretty much all the main buttons in this game! Is it possible that they don't work because I have used them too much?!

Sounds like its time to buy a new controller. Or maybe you can get it fixed since they extended all THE warranties to 3 years!

Mine has the same problem but it's because sumbody spilled Sprite ON it.

I thought the warranties were only extended on 360's that have the 3 red lights...

no they are for all 360s. my video component in the 360 broke and i sent it in. and there were no red lights on. and they sent me another one.

Hmm... well my 360 has been acting up lately (giving me 1 red light sometimes when i turn it on... and im currently on my third 360)... So i called in and asked about it, but the kid told me that my warranty was about up and i could purchase a new one for $30. He said that the 3 year warranty now is only for 3 red lights

My controller is about 3 months old and the left joystick kind of pulls left. If I push left and let go it keeps tracking left slowely. Making sniper head shots alittle trickier!!!

Will MS warranty that? I have the box and all

I'm having the same problem!

I think its due to using the controller so much. How much do you play?

I log in about 5 hours a day, so I think that is why my controller is pooping out
