Fix for Xbox 360 D-pad

[rossgreene435]

i cant find the red line

[lance1499]

what if you dont have a xbox 360 controller???????????? pls reply

[DeliriumSC]

@lance1499 Then you don't need to fix it?

[lance1499]

@DeliriumSC D: so im gonna buy a 360 controller and smash it then fix it im confused D;

[DeliriumSC]

@lance1499 Haha, I'm confused too T_T

You watch a video on 360 controller modification (not repair) then ask what you're supposed to do if you don't have a controller :<

I could just be a moron though, it's been known to happen.

[lance1499]

@DeliriumSC duh im sarcastic lol

[DeliriumSC]

@lance1499 :( Don't tease morons. It's not nice ;)

[danteasdfgh]

it kinda work... but... I don't know lol

[themixedguy5552]

yay.... now i kno what a D-pad is xD

[strykah92]

Meh, I'd rather just replace it altogether with a Saturn D-pad.

[vinbaz1]

What I did was threw tomahawks at my controller till it was comfortable..

[IBeDivine]

So what your saying is that if i take a machete and hit my d pad with it, it will work again?

[angeal97]

can i do this on a ps3 controller?

[thrasha666]

@angeal97 u dont need to do it with a ps3 controller cause the dpad on the dualshocks is the best out (can be argued, but its way better then the wii and 360 in my experience)

[skullskates09]

make a video to fix the annoying song

[spaceeskimo11t]

i almost clicked off this video as soon as i heard the music, my god man seriously?

[zombie420DGAF]

this doesnt help me on my problem i have elite controller and it doesnt have rubber around it, my dpad just doesnt work at all and its been like that since i got my 360

[ArandurKing909]

faggot.

[stuntsofgh3]

Thanks! This really works. I have one controller with a small dpad and I did this on the one with the large dpad and it works better then it did before.

[MilleniumSlickRick]

my friend is on his 8th

[Julitroid]

it doesnt void the warranty cause you only ship the console with no hdd forthe repair

[Jhedan]

Pretty nice video, easy to do and somehow it DOES makes a difference when playing the d-pad.

You just have to be careful and do it slowly, but it pays off.

[barman1176]

People still care about warranties? Jeez...ever heard of doing things yourself?

MS has proven that they can't be trusted to get it right, much less fix anything in a timely fashion. Much better off doing 360 modding/repairs by yourself!

Not to mention you don't have to wait, nor pay shipping. ;)

[electricrockr]

no way. you are NOT on your 11th!!!!

they're not that faulty.

you'd have to be playing rugby with it to have it stop working that many times.

[chikwin]

Shut the fuck up you little bitch. READ what he wrote more carefully. He works at best buy stupid.

[electricrockr]

you're a gay fish

[InfinteShock]

i have 2 controllers and one works fine but the other ones dpad keeps hitting the white plastic..ima try this and see if it works

[krua32]

About how long does this take?

[Joghurtfreund]

Song is annoying!

[Billkwando]

Yes, why yes it is....

[GuitarVillianX]

Nice im gonna try this

[g00N3r92]

I don't get it, which bit do I cut?

[Tricky20x]

Awesome, this really worked. Thanks!

[Bradderz2536]

nice one im off to try it now

[Hulkboy3]

my problem is more the way the d-pad is located since im going to be playing tekken 6 i need the d-pad and the left analog to switch place i know it's propably impossible ive been looking for weeks and the only 360 controller that has the d-pad located right is the street fighter 4 fight-pad but it has this huge "artwork" of some street characters nad street fighters so prepetually gay that i refuse to by that shit

[Bradderz2536]

i feel your pain

i reli liked the way the playstation had the d-pad and the right thumbstick located

to be honest got for the special street fighter controller because it'd be better for your tekening

[STUARTXTR7]

@Hulkboy3 Street Fighter is better than Tekken.

[idontevenhavestuff]

@Hulkboy3 dude how can you like tekken MORE than streetfighter..... tewkken is by far the most boring game there is. just memorize a few combos, and remember to hit them wen there in the air. streetfighter is better on every dimension

[gdogg2000]

@idontevenhavestuff

I don't see how.. with street fighter all you have to do is spam to death and jump kick like crazy.  Tekken requires more strategy. And it's customization of characters alone makes it better IMO

[idontevenhavestuff]

@gdogg2000 honestly all i see in competitive tekken is long combo-> knock in air -> combo -> knock away -> wavedash -> combo on ground

and i dont really care much about the customization. if i wanted a fighting game for customization id go with soul calibur. if you watch a game of daigo or another pro playing street fighter theres so much going on. the mechanics and the way the game is set up makes it really flexible, like super smash bros.melee.... the fighting game that takes THE most skill

[maiki60fps]

That is just unbelievable, considering how good the D-pad is on the former Controller-S.... Instead of improving things they made them much worse forcing people to cut cheap plastics... saving money on reducing quality... this Xbox generation simply sucks...

[KillThi3f]

THANK YOU! this was awesome. straight forward, easy to understand and didnt take 8min to explain how to do it! and a kick ass song to boot!

[RivenX3i]

Awesome tip, man! Doing it to all my controllers right now.

[bingstar316]

How did you get on with it man? Need a proper d pad to play pro evo soccer properly with

....

[TeaBagSwe]

WORKED PERFECT! , thanks, now i dont have to hear these annoying sounds and its much more sensitive to press so i dont have to press the d-pad so hard

[Barcode711]

So you don't sand on top of the outer rim, just on the inside? Or both?

[iwanconabonbul]

my dpad doesnt ever mess up do i have the new one i bought it 12-13-08

[c1rca121]

Whats that song called?

[Gambit455]

Get Stoned by Hinder

[EuroHEV]

What happens if I cut the plastic all around? Will that mess up the pad?

[feargod91]

well i jus finished my controller i pretty much sawed the ends off i wasnt exactly sure what u were doing in the pictures and i cut my self with the knife 3 times but i can say that my d pad is much better now lol

[avenger00000]

dude i love you this is perfect the dpad is so much more responsive now

[cybersunday07]

thanks i needed that man with the new svr09 game you have to use it.

[Xenokai360]

Thanks gunhaver12 i thought about doing that for a video before but when my 360 breaks i just take it back with a warn controller so i cant really do that much shaving to it or they wont exchange it lol Im buying a screw driver and im gonna swicth the whole front faceplate off my wired controller because its dpad doesnt do this at all its certain controllers only 90% mostly tho

[InternautBrabant]

Microsoft announced that a new Xbox 360 controller is coming with a better D-pad that can go in 8 directions. Especially for games like Pro Evolution Soccer 2009, Street Figher and Soul Caliber

[dakuro1]

extremely helpful 5/5

[grindd]

could you have possibly found a bigger knife to use? seems like it would have been easier with a hatchet or an axe.....

[Happysin]

It works much better if you take sand paper to it, but you do have to take apart the D-pad to do it that way.

[dindinmama92]

yo thanx man now my d pad is perfect and yes pac man fever lol

[xxmarka]

without voiding the warranty?

[Perdition101]

LOL "whats a D-pad?" dude.....how have you ever played a video game console without knowing something like that.....lol

[XIIIJmannxx]

Thanks 4 the info!..Gonna have to keep this vid in mind.

-Jmann-

[Prank0calz]

hey does this make the D-pad feel just like the one for the Xbox S Controller?

[nakizzimo]

Dude just use sandpaper, it's a lot easier

[DauntlessEagle1]

TARD ... WATCH THE VIDEO NOOB

[burak1337]
