Conclusion
We’re not sure why PDP decided to take the wired approach to the PS3 and Xbox 360 TRON: Legacy Collector’s Edition controllers. This special edition TRON Xbox 360 USB controller is recommended for collectors and those who don’t mind wired controllers, but sadly just isn’t as cool as the TRON Wii remote controller, which is wireless. One positive note to the TRON 360 controller – it can be used on your PC and is compatible with Windows games that support the Xbox 360 controller!
TRON Wired Controller for Xbox 360 Collector’s Edition
The reason these are wired is because if they weren’t, the battery would be drained like 6 times faster as those lights would chew through power from a battery faster.
