Okay. So I have this Xbox 360 Controller but it's not really an official one, because they were a bit too expensive for my taste. It works great, I never had to fix anything of it, no deadzone in the sticks, etc. But I've noticed that the Left and Right Bumper on it make these rather abnormal loud clicks and it doesn't exactly feel... satisfying to press them. I notice this especially while playing Dark Souls. So I was wondering if someone with a Xbox 360 Controller, an official one, could make a small video of them pressing the bumpers a few time to listen to the difference.

Okay. I know it's kind of weird. And please refrain from "Xbox Sucks" and "Microsoft needs to die" discussions in this one. I'll be forever grateful if anyone could do this. I've looked up videos, but I haven't exactly found what I looked for.

Thanks in advance!

The bumpers on my wired controller make a clicking sound when pressed down. It's noticeable, but not annoying. Also, the clicking seems to be slightly louder than the older 360 controllers, but that could just be due to wear.

I bet this is just an obscure fetish or something.

This is going to be buried in comments of me having a Bumper fetish. Without resolve. Why, SteamGifts.

or worse, have people make a tumblr out of it...man that's scary

I don't have the capability to make a video, but both my wired controllers I use for PC (one black Xbox branded, one white Microsoft branded, both official) have a loud clicking noise and a rather short decline when pressing the bumper buttons. Both also sometimes have a high-pitched "whine" or squeak when pressing the triggers or the X, Y, A, B buttons.
Hope it is of some help.

It's the most helpful post so far. Guess the bumpers just aren't very fun. Thank you!

Thank you so much. It does sound a little better than mine. But I guess the clicking's inevitable. A godsend!

You shall have my firstborn.

Mine makes exactly the same sound as DillonMabry's so it saves me the trouble of making a video.

Its a pointless request because it will end out being done by someone with a terrible microphone so it won't sound right anyway and you will never be able to adjust the volume accurately so you will end out listening to it too loud or too quiet.

No need for "Xbox Sucks" or "Microsoft needs to die", the XBox 360 controller is the best gamepad ever made :P

I used to prefer PS style controllers... Until my PS3 died, I got more into PC gaming, and of course got a 360 controller :P. Now when I go to friends houses with PS consoles, it just feels weird. While I'd say the PS consoles have always been better than the Xbox consoles, I think the 360 controller takes the cake.
