FULL STORY
======================================================================

There must be something in the water among gaming hardware manufacturers, as 
we've seen loads of quality controller discounts before the Black Friday 
sales have even started. Now, Thrustmaster is getting in on the act with one 
of its Xbox gamepads.

It's the Thrustmaster Heart Xbox controller I'm highlighting today, which is 
currently available for 67.99 (was 89.99) at Amazon . That's not quite a 
lowest-ever - we saw the Heart dip to 54.99 in early September - but I still 
think the pad's well worth looking at with this 22 discount.

Thrustmaster Heart deal 

The Heart's eye-catching design is one thing, but it's the sublime mechanical 
buttons and bespoke Hall effect sticks that take center stage. An easy 
recommendation at this discounted price.

 US price: Amazon - $79.99 (was $129.99) View Deal 

I liked the Thrustmaster Heart a fair bit when I tested it for review last 
year, though one of my main sticking points was its high price relative to 
the slight amount of features it offers, especially as competing Xbox 
controllers can offer more for less. However, this current discount drops it 
to a price I'd actually consider picking one up at. 

What the Heart does well, it does seriously well. It has some of the 
nicest-feeling Hall effect sticks in the business, and those sublime 
mechanical buttons allow for tactile, satisfying play, especially in 
multiplayer environments where that extra immediacy can really sort you out. 
I'm a big fan of the aesthetic, too; the black and white divided by a 
customizable RGB lighting strip is unique and eye-catching. 

The only other real gripe I have is that - like the Thrustmaster eSwap X2 and 
eSwap X2 H.E. controllers, the Heart offers no wireless connectivity options. 
It's a bit more excusable here as the Heart isn't as pricey as those eSwap 
models, but still a bummer for those who don't want wires getting in the way 
of their play space. Shop more of today's best Black Friday sales Amazon : up
