As we mentioned in our February issue, we count the Xbox 360’s excellent wireless controllers among the very best features of the new system. They eliminate the hassle of tripping over your opponents’ cords when you come back from refilling your beverage, and you don’t have to worry about laboriously coiling cords for storage each time you’re done playing, either. But, of course, no cords generally means that you have to have plenty of batteries on hand; nothing kills a marathon Madden NFL or Perfect Dark Zero co-op session like a dead set of controller batteries.
We love the Play & Charge Kit because it eliminates the need for batteries altogether. For 20 bucks you get a rechargeable NiMH battery pack that snaps onto the back of your controller and a USB cable that plugs into the front of the controller. When your battery pack runs down, just plug the cable in and recharge it. The cable even recharges the battery pack while you play, so aside from work, sleep, and a few other minor irritations, there’s no reason you ever have to stop playing.
