FPS Freak by Kontolfreak

This is the FPS freak, and already I know that you think it's a pointless marketed to those with too much time on their hands and money to burn....  And I think that you are exactly right! What they are designed to do is grant FPS players a higher range of motion making it easier to play on higher sensitivity settings. What I think it does is make the controller bulky and uncomfortable to hold.

The system does accomplish its goal, but it seems to me that you have to "claw grip" the controller for them to be comfortable but I also find that to get in my way more than anything. But if you want think that running a higher sensitivity is what your game is missing then I suggest that you pick up a set. They are rather inexpensive msrp $20 but there is a special running on the website http://www.kontrolfreek.com and they are half price right now from there.
If any of you have tried them or have something to add I would love to hear it. Thanks for taking the time to stop by my page!

  1. I'm with you, it looks like it would be awkward playing with one thumbstick sticking up like a skyscraper. Glad you got your comments fixed!

  7. 20$ seems a lot for a small analogue stick extension.

  8. seems like it might just take some getting used to...i would improvise a home version before spending $20 on em though.
