A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I have the slim model and it was surprisingly easy with a good tutorial video and a set or torx screwdrivers.

As for controllers I also did that too with a good clean and new thumbsticks but sorry can't help with any 3rd party recommendations.

Good to know. I do have some official 360 controllers still but they’re all in poor shape at this point. Only the one that I used to use is undamaged, but I forgot to remove batteries before storing it so it got corrosion and is very spotty and turns off a lot. I’ve been putting off cleaning it properly, by just not playing my 360 for a while, but I really should fix the controllers and give the console a nice treatment to bring it all back up to running order again.
