So, is it a bad sign when a chunk of plastic chips off your Xbox S-Controller while you’re playing?

I’m not talking about a button or joint coming loose and dislodging. I mean a strip of plastic actually breaking off, due to excessive pressure from overuse.

You might tag me as a hopeless gaming geek. But really, it’s taken two full years to damage the controller (it still works fine). And comparatively, I’m tame. I just took a survey on my gaming habits, and it turns out that my couple of hours a week of blasting pixels is bush league when stacked against the 8-hours-per-day zombies out there.
