How to Modify a Wireless 360 Controller

For many first-person shooters for the Xbox 360, a faster trigger pull can mean the difference between victory and defeat. The most powerful weapons in such games, such as rifles and high-caliber pistols, require an individual trigger pull for each bullet fired. Fortunately, you can modify your wireless Xbox 360 controller for rapid-fire functionality with a few household products, affording you a formidable edge on the virtual battlefield.
