KONTROL FREEK?

[Mr STOLEN360]

i was thinking of picking up some of the kontrol freeks to see how they are, some people like them and some people dont. if anyone uses them let me know how they are i dont want to waste my money if they are crap. it would be much appreciated if you could help me thank you

am i just a noob? i don't know what a kontrol freak is? can you explain a lil about what it is... i used to work at gamestop, maybe i just call them something different

They extend the length of the R & L thumbsticks and have extra grip.
Haven't tried them myself though as they retail for $20 here and that seems a bit much for some molded rubber.

 

[KoG Astounded]

that seems like something over priced i would never spend that much for a thumbstick

 

[DeF Scumdog CoS]

you can find controllers for less than that.

i agree with jarhead then, i'd like to hear from someone that has them... sound like a rip to me, but i've been wrong in the past

I have them on one of my controllers spent a week with them and a week without i have to say i play better without they can be useful but at the end of the day they aren't worth 20 maybe 10 but thats just my opnion

I dont personally like them. They make it where you have to move your thumb more and further away. Plus it adds height to the stick.

Yeah, never played with em or heard of em, but I would imagine the extra hieght alone would take some time to get used to. I find anything other than official lisensed type stuff usually ends up dissappointing. a little off topic but NEVER spend a dime on a MADCATZ product.

 

[RIZZ ON U]

I have multiple friends that have them and they all say the same thing, only use the right kontrol freek thumb. Don't use the left

 

[The Chosen One]

I've heard they work pretty well from mates. Never tried them though.


Madcatz make some good stuff.

 

[night ninja]

Geltabz work better than control freaks. I prefer to use them

 

[KoG TAZZ 728]

There not all that great just being honest.

 

[Mr STOLEN360]

thanks for the feedback everyone, suven7 i may try the geltabz there cheaper than the kontrol freeks and it wont empty my wallet

 

[XGC Filters]

Why not just go out and buy a new controller

 

[XGC PRIMETYME]

i heard both things some say there good some say there not worth it

 

[night ninja]

Thats what i like about the geltabz and you can get plenty of use out of them. They can last you awhile. and add the extra grip to the thumb stick

 

[Mr STOLEN360]

i do also have to buy a new controller the thumbsticks stick in weird position if i dont touch it i start to move its weird

 

[night ninja]

Yea, I have heard of that happening before. Not sure if there is anything you could do to really fix it.
