Xbox 360 Controller Problem
Hello. The A Button on my Xbox 360 Afterglow Controller appears to have sunk down into the controller some. It can still be pressed, but it's kind of hard to press. Anyone know how to fix this?

Maybe the rubber dome collapsed and/or there's some crap in it that needs sorting?

Re: Xbox 360 Controller Problem
The pad underneath is probably dirty and sticking together.
This is generally why you should wash your hands (most of the time) before grabbing your controllers. Sticking buttons aren't fun.
You generally have to open it to clean it.
It could also be damaged. But since it sounds like it works ... it being stuck sounds more likely.
