Xbox 360 Wireless Controller

xboxXbox accessories aren’t usually the cheapest of things, so there should be no need to justify the bargain over at Cats Digital. They’ve got a wireless Xbox 360 controller for the how-is-that-even-possible price of R199. Buy two of these, and you’ll still have spent less than you’d pay for one, any other day of the year.
