DRAGON SLAY FightPad Elite for Playstation 4 PS4 and Playstation 3 - Officially Licensed by Sony - BLACK

A very strudy and responsive fightpad, had no problems with inputs like I have with the dual shock 4, and I can play fighting games with confidence again so bonus, the only addition I would put to it is a sheet showing the button layout for the R3/L3 switch and how to remove/activate aim assist

Without a doubt, a great hybrid option. I'm finding that the only support the right side of the controller gets is from the thumb. So mashing buttons down on your thumb does hurt.Let me just stress the importance of taking a break and stretching. Especially in fighting games. Even if it's to go and make a cup of coffee, giving your hands a rest every 30 minutes or so is really useful. Stretching them too. Look on YouTube for the best kinds of stretches, they help a lot.

I bought this because I was thinking about getting a PS4, still haven't got one so I'm using this this with my PC, plug and play, no extensive set up required (just make sure you set the switch to PS3). Buttons feel strong I can pull off all of my moves on the D-Pad and all of the buttons are mappable for Emulators, unlike an X-Box controller where you lose the trigger buttons to the Z-Axis.

TLDR: It's an okay fightpad but feels cheap.I was in the market for a controller specifically for fighting games as I didn't want to spend the money for a proper fightstick, I remember seeing a few EVO competitors using fightpads so I thought I'd look into a few. This one caught my eye as I love the design and colour scheme, it does it's job well and took me a couple hours to readjust my muscle memory to this controller. The Dpad is more of a disc which allows for more fluid motions when doing quarter/half circles.However, this controller feels cheap, light, and may probably break under extensive use. The shape of the handles aren't ergonomic as they are angled rather than curved like most controllers. The disc Dpad also feels like it could go off center if it were to break, I would prefer if there were some sort of feedback when you hit a direction, maybe some slight bumps or an octagonal gate, just for the player to register that they've hit the direction.All in all, it's an okay fightpad which does it's intended job well. But I don't think I could recommend it to my friends or fellow fighting game enthusiast.

It was working good but after a while felt less responsive to the point of being useless... the r2 and l2 are trigger like... so if you're using them on a fighting game takes forever to register the command as you have to pull it all the way down to activate it..

This has made playing Tekken and my other fighting games a smoother and more consistent experience... I only wish it had a headset jack. For the money though, very impressed, and the design looks good too.

better than the old mad catz one.

The d-pad is superb.The buttons are good.The analog stick and triggers are pointless and make the controller less comfortable than it should.Still a great fightpad for the money!I just wish they removed the pointless analog bits!!!
