100% Disappointed
I genuinely dislike reviews which are negative simply to be negative, which is why it pains me to write this review. Regarding the "Speed Freaks" I was thoroughly disappointed. My big cons were ... 1. The thumb "cradle" is huge so there's a good deal of play within the control. I was expecting something more snug so that when I moved my thumb the stick would move as well. Not the case here. 2. Perhaps my BIGGEST complaint is that the design of the prongs which attaches the "Freak" to the stick catches or snags on of the molding of the gamepad itself. I frequently get stuck and can't turn, then when you push the stick past the snag it lurches to the side inevitably driving you into a wall or some other barrier. 3. Price. Normally these issues I chalk up to "lesson learned" I throw it away and look for something better but ... these are SO EXPENSIVE I am hoping that they offer a refund or something. I purchased a "Gamer Pack" thinking that the FPS Freaks might come in handy as well for making more minute steering adjustments. For what cost more than half of a new Ferrari Racing GamePad, I received 4 attachable plastic "nobs" that I would not have paid more than $7 for had I seen them in a store. The FPS Freaks were not quite as disappointing, but, where I was hoping to be able make more minute adjustments to the steering of the car, I instead was having to make much larger, sweeping movements to make regular turns. And these snagged as well. Not as bad because these used only 3 prongs to attache to the controller and it could be positioned so that it wouldn't snag as badly. But because I had to made such wide movements it would swing far enough to snag a prong anyway. SUGGESTION(S) 1. Reduce the profile and number of the prongs and this time TEST. There is no way that this would not be noticed if some testing as done. 2. Make the "cradle" more adjustable so that it fits more snuggly on the thumb/finger. 3. Make a concave button similiar to the FPS Freak, but make it sit low on the stick. The factory "round-headed" sticks are horrible for grip whereas the concave FPS Freak tops were great. Just that they were extended too far from up the original stick and again the prongs interfered with the gameplay. CONCLUSION I don't know if I'm going to my refund or not but I would like too. It was a lot of money to lay out for something that didn't work for me. I am going to invest in a new driving controller instead. Almost the same $$. I actually hope, however, that they improve on these products. I believe that their head is in the right place and they have the right idea. It just suffers from poor execution. - G
-GaryNo need for XBox 360 Wheel now
I recently purchased Forza 3 and was looking for a wheel to go along with it. Well, as you know there are not many force feedback wheels for the 360. Anyway after coming up empty searching for a decent wheel, I came across a post about these on InsideSimRacing forums. The logic sound sound and hey for $10, what did I have I have to lose? Tried them on Forza and immediately noticed a difference in my racing. I can maintain corners easily and didn't crash as much. Looking at my replays, I'm not doing the herky-jerky motions I was doing before. Definitely worth the money. I'm not swearing off wheels, but until someone manufactures a reasonably inexpensive forcefeedback wheel, these will do nicely.
-RoderickProduct Questions & Answers
Q) For Control Freek products, can you use the Speed Freek on the left analog, and a FPS Freak on the right?
A) You can put one on one thumbstick and the other on the other one, but you can not put them both on the same thumbstick at the same time. We are working on that enhancement, though, but it is still in product development.
Q) What is the difference between Speed Freek and the new Speed Freek APEX?
A) Speek Freek APEX is the Speed Freek but with an optional base that can be used for added precision and grip. The added “rise” that the base provides allows for smaller movements, which translates into smoother actions on the track. Use Speed Freek APEX with or without the base depending on personal preference and style of gameplay.
