With the modules alone I see and understand why this controller is so expensive and in my opinion is a fair price. I’m not sending it back, I love it.

I think the problem is there are other options that are better. I really wanted to like this one, but I cant justify it. Im glad you are enjoying it though, and I am not trying to change your mind. It is a good controller when you need the features they offer.

Completely agree with you, I had the original Gambit controller and absolutely loved it and wanted this pro ps5 version. I wish the price was a bit better. It does not feel as premium as my ps5 edge controller but it has much better attachments. The annoying thing about the edge is that you can't map buttons without a ps5. Today is going to be my 1st day trying this new controller and excited to see what it feels like.

I’m sorry but this IS for FPS and fighting games on a competitive level only. Why would you even think it makes sense to review it as an all around controller. It’s like saying “ I don’t like tanks , it’s like they’re only built for war times! I can’t drive my tank to school” maybe understand your product before you buy it, let alone making such a long review about it.

4 paddles/back buttons is what makes me buy this over anything that has 2. I am so used to using 4 back buttons that I can't use any controller that has less. I wish that they would sell stick modules like edge. If they will, I will buy this after my Scuf Rexlex FPS eventually gets stick drift. Edit: you shouldn't pass on this controller just because of lack of haptic feedback and adaptive triggers if you have original dualsense still. Use that on other games where you need those features.

@yarbles66 Жыл бұрын

I think you've missed a lot of the point here. This is a controller specifically designed for fighting games. You obviously haven't played them much or you'd understand a few things better. I entered tournaments as a kid across the UK in the early - mid 90s and you had to use a pad. The six button thing makes a HUGE difference & the d pad is far superior to any other. Fighting sticks are cumbersome. I haven't been able to play fighting games for YEARS due to my thumb being absolutely battered from many years of (especially) Street Fighter 2. This is true with many of us older players. The build quality also makes sense. It's very light and that makes total sense when using an underthumb grip - you want to play like this with something with a heavy build xbox elite? Good luck. The modular build also contributes to the building feeling a bit rattly (personally I'd rather it was just fixed in position with dpad up and six buttons - but I understand as to why the company need to offer something multi purpose). As for no bluetooth. I never use Bluetooth. It's utter shit compared to 2.4ghz. If you can't organise your your gaming equipment properly to the point you're losing important components - that's on you. Besides - if you do lose it, you can buy a generic 2.4 ghz receiver for a few bucks. If you can't do an objective review - don't bother mate.

@heyguyslolGAMING 9 ай бұрын

The reason they might have gone w/ a 2.4 wireless over bt is because bt tends to sleep often which causes windows to randomly disconnect the controller from a windows pc. The other reason is latency, bt tends to have more latency over a 2.4 wireless adapter.

It's basically a fight pad. I used to have some major issues with it that made it unusable, but the software update has fixed every one of them. I can disable the back buttons and the left trigger and left shoulder button. I only use the fight pad and the two right shoulder buttons for street fighter. No more accidental clicks on the left side or on the back buttons. The standard D-pad module like the one on NES is the best one and feels great for fighting games. Probably the best fight pad you can get at the moment.

You make fair points about the missing features but buyers already know this in advance. I do agree about the sensitivity of the triggers. It's something I noticed right off the bat and I don't like it. Im not bothered by having to use the dongle for wireless though. You are also on point about how cheap the controller feels. It has a 2 year limited warranty but that's not really an excuse for this controller feeling so cheap. I'm disappointed when it comes to that. I do feel like the controller is comfortable despite feeling cheap. I play both shooters and fighting games so I feel that this controller is still more than worth it for those alone. Currently there isn't a good native alternative to this. The DualSense dpad is absolute trash for fighting games(tried the Hori FIghting Commander Octa and it wasn't good enough imo) and I prefer to play shooters from asymmetrical position. The Victrix Pro BFG fills both those needs and ultimately why I refused to buy the DualSense Edge. I'll just keep my DualSense controllers for the games that uses those features. Having said this, your review was fair and well made.

However I disagree that it feels cheap. I think that’s a trick that happens when the rumble is removed-it feels so light that you think the plastic must be really cheap But the same thing happens when you take out the rumble on a Sony controller-it feels weird and hollow and plasticky That said I wasn’t getting the best clicks out my back buttons. Maybe it was latency (online gaming), but I just don’t want to deal with any problems of buttons not working, etc.

@SilentAndy 8 ай бұрын

Completely agree. I think it's the placebo effect to blame here for why everyone thinks it "feels" cheap. It's like u said, simply because vibration and adaptive triggers are missing - that lowers the weight.

I had to come back and add some more information. If you are looking for a fighting game pad, avoid this pad. Apparently there is more input delay with the Victirx than with the DS5. The DS5 has less input lag than the Victrix wired.

@robertdew5177 2 ай бұрын

Reviving a dead comment section but the OP makes some very off base and false comments. The triggers being sensitive is usually a plus, pressing them on accident is user error not controller error. The term get good comes to mind. But aside from that he said the wireless is only through the dongle. It actually features the full bluetooth compatibility that the original branded xbox and ps5 controller have. Even tilt function works fine through the integrated bluetooth as well. The other difference is the astoundingly better build quality and self repair. It has onboard stick drift fix which is a true fix and not just an increase/decrease of dead zones. It re-calibrates to perfection. It's everything the other controllers do just better. This is not a paid promotion simply clarification by someone who regularly uses all of the mentioned controllers as well.

The whole haptic and whatnot doesn't matter to me. All that matters is that the controller will stand the test of time and that the dpad is deadly accurate. It's really hard to find a pad for fighting games I like. I want the accuracy of a great pad but the face buttons of ps or xbox. I would pay premium price for that dpad. Victrix from my experience makes fgc peripherals. What pad users need for fighting games versus like a person who casually plays shooting games action games etc is different. All those fancy features people are attracted to don't necessarily matter. There aren't many fighting game tournament players over the large community, but there are also no real good options for pad players either. Also wired is typically standard for fighting game tournaments. Some tournaments are lax but wireless isn't allowed usually. I'll kinda see how this goes until I decide to buy.

People also need to realize that the victrix is almost identical to an Xbox elite series 2 without the rumble I love mine, I also went from Xbox to ps5 and all tnough I love the dual sense I wanted a controller with offset sticks , trigger locks and paddles without having to pay 250 for a razor controller so this works great

Waiting for it... My dualsense drift like it prepare for world championship drift contest. Battery life on normal dualsense is also dog yeah... Victrix has 2 years warranty dualsense one year. I'm playing Destiny 2 that doesn't support that trigger thing same with victrix but we. I have already turned off vibration and do the same with adaptive triggers if game support it. Maybe it is nice for single player immersive thing but like I said.. Single player. I can't imagine playing PvP with both that features.. The only thing I'll miss is a microphone and speaker but I have wired headphones soo we for me again.. sound from speaker was already quiet and sometimes I had an problem to understand what and who said.. But like this feature. For single player immersive thing I still have dualsense and don't need edge. For games like destiny or maybe fortnite oh god lame I know - I have a victrix. Dualsense edge cost 1200pln (Poland) victrix cost 800-850pln. Dualsense both edge and normal have very poor battery. Victrix has 4 additional buttons instead of 2. You can map on fly without any menu. With victrix I can use xbox analogs positions thats imo more comfortable.
