    Off the bat being able to adjust the tightness of the sticks is what makes it worth it for me. How far you can press down the triggers also is a very convenient thing when switching from driving to shooting.

    Such a great purchase if you are an avid gamer. Very sturdy and well built. Button Mapping and controller setting capabilities are awesome and make this controller well worth the price tag.

    Just a regular controller with a fancy name

    Don’t let the stars fool you, it is a great product, the thing is that because of the price and the actual usability of the controller makes it impossible for me to give it a better rating. It is a luxury item, and it can help you go pro, but’s that’s it. Other than the back pedals it offers the difference between a regular controller and this is minimal. Both controllers will get stick drift and if you are no good at the game, the controller is useless.

    Particularly compared to the controller that comes with the Xbox, this one is way ahead in terms of possibilities. You can tighten the joysticks, use paddles etc all to enhance how well you respond, play the overall game etc. It is meant for more of a competitive aspect rather than casual play but I’m sure you’ll like it more than the regular controller.

    Was a little hesitant at first but after playing with the setting and making all the adjustments it was well worth it! Live having my controls customized and having the additional buttons on the back.
