Yeah it's the Elite and it's worlds better.

Why do people like these things? The casing feels like cheap chinese plastic, the candy buttons hurt your fingers, the D-Pad is still shit, the triggers are completely fucked and the left analogue is in the wrong place.
>>
>>322684076
Not really. You're paying 60 bucks more for some paddles on the back and some custom settings. The newer Xbone controllers with the 3.5mm jack and refined bumpers are the best on the market currently. Possibly the best ever.

The positioning is awful, the d-pad itself is quite nice from a functional standpoint. Clicky and responsive. Having said that, I much prefer the positioning of the left stick, so obviously the d-pad has to go somewhere else. Sony got it the other way round, which to this day I still don't fully understand.

Having owned a PS2, gamecube, n64, snes, xbox 360, xbone, and wii. I'd have to say the best controller had to be the xbox 360 one, it was perfect for my big american hands. You europoors probably think it's too bulky though since all of you are malnourished lol.

You'd be amazed just how virgin most PC gamers are. Just remind yourself that they spend as much on a single PC part as we do on a console and a couple of games all so they can see cool looking water effects or whatever instead of just turning on a tap.

depends on the thickness. But gold leaf with a crystal or abs finish would do. That would put the manuf costs around 300-400. So your price works. But micro wouldnt do that, leave that to a 3rd party.

There are a lot of people who put swarovski diamonds on stuff like beats headphones, so it can be a thing.

>>322694051

It's all about the D-pad, faggot.

In every single one of those controllers that isn't the Dualshock, it isn't comfortable or reliable to use the D-pad with any precision for anything more than simple weapon selects, or if the developer is particularly lazy, just an unusable remap of the left stick. The biggest issue is navigating menus. Using an analog stick for moving a digital menu, that only requires up down left and right is terrible. You have to push on the stick in the direction you need, when a simple tap on the D-pad is much faster, and more responsive since it works when you click it, unlike the stick where it activates about halfway through the push.

Pushing down on the D-pad when it's in the lower part of the controller like on an X-box controller is annoying for your thumb, since you need to move your thumb on the desired direction, and click down. When a stick is there, like with PS controllers, you never need to click down on a direction, your just pushing it where it needs to go.

I don't understand why people would want the sticks opposite anyway. People say it keeps your thumbs aligned, with your left thumb on the stick, and the right on the buttons, but 90% of your time in most games these days is spend with both thumbs on the sticks to control the camera while moving.

Really? I got a Steam controller recently and I fucking hated it. Using the touch pad to look around was awkward as fuck and jittery.

I was using it on the Steam Link, so maybe that's the problem, as that thing is also a pile of garbage.

Why have I never heard of this feature before? Gyro aiming feels great with Splatoon, and it was the only good thing about Uncharted on Vita. Too bad I'll never not use a mouse for PC games that require aiming. If only it became standard for every console game.

Ok, watched that video, thought it looked awkward as fuck.

Tried it out in Talos, yeah, it's awkward as fuck.

The gyro aiming isn't awful. The thing that bothers me the most is turning around. You have to either flick it which just flings you around wildly, or set up the edge control where if you touch the outer edge it works like a joystick, which is still slow as fuck and weird.

I think it if there was right joystick plus gyro like the Wii U pad on splatoon it would work better overall. I just really can't get used to the touchpad for camera controls at all.
