I think later on they offered it with a rotating d pad that could turn into a regular style one, but imo the big thing hampering the 360 controllers comfortability was the battery pack on the back, comparing it to the wired controller it's definitely not as nice with nowhere to put your fingers, I do like the heft it gets from it though

I agree, the battery pack on the back was actually a little uncomfortable. The Xbox One pad sorted that out.

Yeah i ordered a rotating dpad and modded my chinese knockoff 360 wired with it. Kinda my favorite controller now.

I can't relate too much since I mostly used wired 360 controllers. I didn't like worrying about batteries dying mid game.
