Advantages: Backlight, Controls TV Volume etc Disadvantages: TV Mode turns off all other buttons
Unfortunatly, your choice of remote for Xbox 360 is currently very limited, and whilst this isnt the best remote ever, its still the best option you have. You get X, Y, A, and B so that you can navigate Xbox 360 menus easily, and theres also the Xbox Guide button at the top too. The backlight is also a nice little extra, and the TV volume controls come in handy sometimes. Unfortunatly every time you press the TV button the remote switches between ... ...the only button that will respond with your Xbox 360 is the Xbox Guide button, and there is no way to tell which mode your remote is in without trying it to find out.

Advantages: Simple to use and efficient, saves the controller battery Disadvantages: High price tag, not desperatley needed
I got this free when i bought the HD DVD player and it has proved very useful when i have been watching movies and so did not want to use up the battery on my controller.
