I saw these on an ad of a Youtube video, thinking it was stupid. I went to the website and saw all the positive review and thought I'd get myself a pair. The 6-10 day shipping didn't happen though, it was even quicker! I popped them on and they just felt right, until my first game. I did horrid, wanting to throw these at the wall. Thinking I'd do terrible again, I wanted to take them off but didn't. Start of the game I got All Specialist bonus and thought it was luck. I did really well that game, but with only one problem. I couldn't count how many headshots I had gotten! If you think these are dumb, don't, buy a pair and test them out.

I'm a Battlefield 3 Player on PS3 and I have the Kontrol Freeks Elite.
I've started playing yesterday with KF, to be pretty honest I loved it from the first minute, I've read reviews where people said it would take you 1 week to get used to it well I dont agree at all since it gives you a feeling of more precise aiming from the first minute.
Now, what I didnt like at all and was a big disappointment, was that the KF doesnt stick solid with the PS3 Controller they never look that they are well installed, and they jumped off twice in 3 hours of Gameplay.

I saw a video one day on youtube and they had a link to the fps freeks. i said to myself they probally dont really work that well. (my guess was wrong) i did a little more research on the inernet and looked up reviews on youtube and looked at the products on the website. (and i got them on christmas btw) anyway i remembered that i had some points left over for the poweruprewards website that let gamestop customers get points with every purchase and use the points to buy exclusive items. so i saw the product in the store and i have enough points to get it so i bought it and it was shiped out to me i got them and started using them right away. when u play on a regular analog stick at first for a long time its hard to get used to the anolog sticks being raised but after i had gotten used to them i started becoming really good with them and i would deffinetly recomend this product to anyone who is having second thoughs about purchasing it. BUY them if u want to get better i mean it

I love these. They Improve your accuracy on any shooter. I was so proud when people said I hacked because I was so good at aiming in Battlefield 3 and I've only had an Xbox 360 for a month. It is kind of hard to get strait into a game the first time but when you do get it, expect to never go back.
|
|
My order took 4 weeks to ship, that was a bummer. Besides that overall the $20 I payed to get it to me was well worth it. I used to drift with a wheel (Logitech driveFX) on Forza 3, couldn't use the controller for the life of me. there wasnt enough range of motion, then I tried it with the speed feaks when Forza 4 came out (got both roughly at the same time). I noticed I got roughly about the same range of motion as my wheel so the transition was awesome. Now I run podium spots in circuit (top 1k Alps w/ Pagani C12), working my way up the leaderboards slowly losing assist as I become more skilled. I would defiantly recommend this, it gives to the improvement that a wheel would give you but without the comfort, if your into racing and want that 1-3sec lap improvement on your online circuits then defiantly pick this up ahah.
As for Skate 3, I'm ranked 60-70th in Spot Battle and it totally hinders my ability to tap the ABXY buttons with it on. This made it difficult to do some maneuvers because of how quick you have to be.
This is all.

This product right on this site is AMAZING!
Now I am not trying to sound one of those normal guys but I am gaming for quite a while and these babies helped me acheive what took me 3 years to build on
They not only improve your accuracy as stated but also the mobility of the analogue and the reaction speed of your shooter. The science video explains it all. Many Youtube commentators use this product such as TmarTn and SandyRavage and even WhiteBoy himself.
Give it a go. As cheap as your lunch money

this help a TON I play halo about 1 hour a day and within a month, my K/D went from 0.49 to 1.04
|
|
I have been playing video games for a long time (I'm over 40) and generally play objective games (Domination in MW3 and Conquest or Rush in Battlefield 3 currently). My K/D has never been really great (not horrible but not great either) because that was not my focus and I just felt outgunned/outaimed much of the time. I got one of my sons a set of these for Christmas and had to try them out. I spent maybe 40-50 minutes getting used to them and now it feels awkward to play without them. Even if it hasn't been my focus, these have definitely helped my K/D and overall game. I spend a lot less time dying and more time getting the kills now. I just got done ordering some more for my other son and myself so we'll all be outfitted. See ya in-game.
|
|
They have improved my aiming and my mobility alot more.. When i first get the FPS Freek because my friend told me too i thought they were weird and worthless.. when i got used to them my accuracy improved by 10% and my k/d went up .61
|
|
Bought this accessory on January 17 , 2012 received it on January 20, 2012. I would highly recommend this product to anyone gamer that has a problem aiming in any first-person-shooter game. These FPS are very promising and they do exactly what they are made for. Only problem is that you just have to get use to them. But overall they'll make you a better CoD player no doubt about it.
|
|
Great product! I've only had them for a day now and I'm used to them. I was already playing on a 10 sensitivity before I got these, but they have helped with my accuarcy. To me, it feels like the camera rotation is a little bit slower, but it hasn't affected my gaming negativley. I would reccommend not puting one on the left analog stick because it isn't neccesary and gets in the way. Just keep the second one as a spare. It should be noted that these will not make you a gaming god or anything. It will only help you improve some. Quick scoping is harder for me when I use these though, so if you're going to snipe, you should buy the FPS SNIPR. All in all, awesome product!
|
|
just amazing
|
|
Awesome recommend this prodcut to any1.
|
|
These things are great lol to be honest, I couldn't play without em.
I first bought these in 2009 when they had more ridges along the bottom and were harder to snap onto your controller, but since then they have changed that to 3 ridges so it's easy to snap on/off.
These things helped me PWN in red dead redemption, MW2, Battlefield 3, any game really.
Worth the 10$
|
|
I bought this to improve my COD game. Prior to buying them 14 kills or higher (I'm usually playing Kill Confirmed) was good for me. Now only days after getting my FPS freeks I commonly get over 20 kills. It took very little time for me to get used to them (about an hour). I very been recommending these to all the guys I play COD with. For such an inexpensive product it made a big difference in my game.
|
|
My aiming is a lot more smooth and fluent. I play call of duty that's it and my aim is horrible (around 9%). But with these I can lock on to targets without having to spray n pray to get the kill. I usually play on 7 or 8 sensitivity, but after a day of using these I comfortably play on 10. Being able to turn on someone keeps you alive longer and while using fps freeks you have precision aim while doing so. I recommend this to any gamer try them out. Oh and give yourself a few hours to get used to them.
|
|
Ok so I bought these because of the good reviews on it. Turns out the reviews were right! I played a game of team slayer with these on for my first time using them. I got frustrated and thought I made a mistake buying them. I took them off and played another game and happened to do bad again so I put them on again and really started liking them at that point. I would definitely recommend these. Dont worry, when you first play with them they feel uncomfortable and weord but you get used to them very fast! You wont want to play another halo game without them
|
|
Defiantly should purchase these, worth the money.
|
|
Alright, so I decided to go to the last page of the reviews and look at all the negative comments. Ignore them. I won my pair at a local tournament and thought they were garbage. I went home and tried them out and at first they were weird, and after a game or two I took them off and played again. Now I might have just been unlucky, but I did terrible. So after a few more games of this I put them back on and I haven't taken them off since. I seriously cannot play without them now. They do exactly what they say they do. Now don't get me wrong, if you suck and you just spray and pray, it won't make you MLG status or anything, but it WILL improve your game and make you more accurate. Same goes for anyone who's already good. It will make you better, trust me. Needless to say there will be people that say they suck and don't do anything, and they might not, but for the majority of people who use them they're amazing, and they DO work. Don't listen to those negative reviews, don't let a bad apple spoil the bunch. At least try them, they're only $10. My suggestion though, only use one on the right thumbstick and don't put one on the left. In my opinion it really isn't needed on the left, so just do what I did and keep it as a backup. Oh and as for how do they hold up? I've had mine for around 14 months, and I haven't needed to switch to my back up. Just trust me on this guys, they're incredible.
|
|
Just got these so havent seen a huge change yet, but I can say so far that they just make the analog feel perfect. I only use it on the right stick for shooting games, but I can already see that both will be useful for UFC Undisputed. Ordering a second set soon, good to have a spare.
|
|
I struggled with the my aiming skills for 3 years! Now I had to change my xbox live gamer tag from pdiddy98 to bigtimeboostman1000Z! crazy awesome! thanks for the great product! perfect gift for any gamer! gaming aint easy without these little pieces of heaven!
|
|
I ordered these hopeing they would help me aim better, they improved my game instantly i was able to stay on target no problem and my kd went up even with my shitty connection.
|
|
I could not play FPS games with a concole control at all! I was almost always in last place on the server. I couldn't take it anymore and I started looking for a keyboard and mouse adapter for the xbox. While browsing for one, I saw a review that mentioned the FPS freeks as an alternative. So I googled it and came to this site. I after reading all the positive reviews and the low price, I decided I had to try it. These things make a huge difference! It gives me much better control over joystick movement. It improves the accuracy because it takes less effort to move the joysticks. Kdr is definitely improved. Why pay for a pricey keyboard and mouse adapter that costs half the price of the console itself, when these get you the same end result for a fraction of the cost? Plus, the FPS freeks will give you better control in non FPS games.
I would definitely recommend these to everyone! Even if you have a good kdr, these would only make it better.
The only bad thing I notice is that it broke part of the rubber on my joysticks when snapping them in place. This doesn't bother me because I'm never gonna take them off. It could just be my control, or maybe I was not cautious enough when installing them. Either way, it's something I thought I should mention.
|
|
wow, this product is a must have for any mlg gamer. it only takes about 1 game to get used to them, then you pretty much immedietly can reaize how much better you are doing. when firing smgs in mw3 with rapid fire the aim is usually very sloppy, when you put these into the picture it makes the aim that much easier. also since i am a ps3 gamer i bought the power a airflo controller, which when you add these makes it the perfect controller.
|
|
I used to suck at fps games, but with the fps freek, I do a lot better!
|
|
Been researching several of these things. First pair I bought were the cqc and they are good, but these are better. I have big hands and they work great for my accuracy and quick target acquisition for mw3. My wife made fun of me when she saw these things. But its whatever. Id say check amazon or eBay first to see if u can get it cheaper. Otherwise, overall, I have one of these on my right stick and the cqc on my left. My accuracy has improved as well as my kd ratio. I was at .85 kd and now I can honestly say I'm at a 1.25kd because these get me on Target faster.
|
|
These things are the best, my accuracy has improved and im getting about 10 kills more per game.... only thing is, i cant play xbox without them now i love them so much!
|
|
I got my CQC yesterday (great shipping) and already I notice a difference. More controller comfort, 4-5 more kills per round, smoother action, and improved snipping. Also I have small hands so the size is perfect. The only con I've found so far is that if the rubber on the joystick is peeling the FPS Freek CQC might pop off during intense play but that's minor. All in all I love them.
|
|
i've used the fps freeks for about 2 years, and the cqc's are 100% better.
|
|
This is a must have for any FPS gamer. The increase in control and accuracy is far greater than I first thought it would be. And for such a cheap price there really is no reason not to at least try them :D Would definitely recommend.
|
|
I bought the FPS Freek about 2 or 2 1/2 years ago, but never formally reviewed them. I have however let my friends know about them, and they all own FPS Freeks now. It bought my game to the next level, although it did take me a little while to get used to it. I can officially say I can't play without them now. My K/D ratio had improved by a large margin, and definitally gave me the edge I was looking for. These are one of the best purchases I have made in my whole life. Seriously, if I lost mine, I would cry haha, then immediately buy another set.
|
|
With over 700 reviews already posted, I probably don't need to post another, but I hope to provide a clear, concise review. I am using FPS Freek with an Xbox 360 controller, on the right stick only. First of all, you can't beat the price for the huge gains you will receive in return. Have no qualms about that. Secondly, shipping is fast, it took less than 5 days after ordering for mine to arrive. Third, they're easy to install. The base consists of 3 small flat tabs which wrap under the lip of your control stick. It seems tricky, but it's not. Tilt the Freek to one side and press two of the tabs against the stick, then slide the third and final tab over the opposite side of the stick. It can be challenging to keep the actual control stick in place while doing this, but it's certainly not impossible. If you'd like the rubber nubs atop the Freek aligned a certain way, be sure to do so before fully attaching it. Fourth, take some time to adjust to it. You're used to using much less area to move the stick, and the Freek increases that area for more precise control and much faster reactions. The key is to leave your look sensitivity setting alone at first, then as you play you'll feel like you're turning left and right WAY too slow. That's when you take your sensitivity setting up a notch. Continue doing so until you've reached an optimum balance of speed and control. For me, Halo: Reach is at 9 sensitivity, CoD is at 6. That works for me because I play Halo way more. Lastly, enjoy your newfound skill. You'll react much faster than you used to, for example; an enemy may run across your field of view, before you would miss him, but now you can snap the reticle right to their head and pop off a split-second headshot. Repeated headshots without zooming resulting in multikills will become daily fare for you. Your K/D ratio will improve. Running past an enemy, then spinning quickly to perform an assassination will become easy. Getting shot from behind will no longer mean death, as you can spin, aquire, and eliminate your targets as fast as your dexterity will allow. Whole platoons will fall like dominoes from your ridiculously accurate headshots. I cannot stress enough how awesome the KontrolFreek is. This is a no-brainer, win-win situation type of purchase. You can't go wrong if you want more accuracy and precision. Now get to it, soldier!!

ive had my freaks for over two years the originals back before they even started making the new styles. ive still got them and they still have the little dots on them. one of the greates things i have ever purchased.
|
|
Ok so I play GB and i was preety good, im a 3K and my accuracy was allready preety good but it wnted it better! Some times i would jus miss easy shot but after i bought the Fps freeks i can turn my sensitivity higher and still hit every shot!
Only thing wrong is it takes a lil while to get use to and after u get use to them and u try to play on a normal controler like at your friends house its like impossible! Everything feels weird and messed up and you wont get to many kills!
Buy besides that i love them and it deffently made me better!
|
|
Daughter bought me these for my birthday thinking they were slip on thumb grips.
I soon discovered they were extensions.
So I will review them as such.
1. My thumb is now farther away from from my 4 buttons slowing my reaction time to them.
2.My thumbs are no longer ergonomically aligned and carpel tunnel is a greater risk.
3. My thumbs are no loner in there well memorized positions causing my muscles to have to relearn, throwing my game off.
4. If I wanted faster reaction time I would just turn up the sensitivity.
5. They wont stay attached and keep popping off.
|
|
My K/D and accuracy have both gone up since I started using FPS Freeks, but that may have been simply due to improvement. I can play better on higher sensitivities than I could before, though. I do believe they work to an extent. But like all other gaming accessories, they're somewhat of a ripoff. Two pieces of plastic are not worth the price of any version of the FPS Freeks. I recommend splitting the price with a friend and sharing them because you only need one anyway. But that only applies to you if you actually buy them. If you don't play on a ridiculous sensitivity, FPS Freeks aren't worth your money.
|
|
I purchased my FPS Freeks on the 7th of December they were great it improved my accuracy and aiming my K/D and W/L has improved tremendously if your a serious gamer you gotta get a pair you will not be disappointed.
|
|
These things are awesome. These got my 1.50 K/D ration on MW3 to a 1.51 K/D. Was very surprised when I seen kontrol freeks at the Microsoft store at the Mall of America. Talked my friend into purchasing them. WOO
|
|
I bought these because I saw some amazing reviews, at first when I got them I thought they were stupid, but once I got used to them they actually helped improve my game experience. They actually helped increase my KD ratio a tiny bit (0.2) in MW3. The only downside for me was the design, so I scratched it off, it wasn't that hard.
|
|
When i started using these they felt akward and annoying but as i got to use them more they started to feel right.i took them off cause i did not like them but as soon as i played without them it felt weird so i put them on again and it just helps as i played a noticed my accuracy was going up as well as my kd this is a great product but i dont know if its really worth your 15 bucks its just 2 peices of plastic overall i give it a 4 out of 5 if you have 15 bucks around and want to give them a try i would totely sugest that. If your think thats kinda pricy then dont get them.
|
|
This FPS CQC is an excellent addition to my collection. Since it is so small, it took no time at all to get used to them. I would recommend this to any person that plays MW3 or any other shooter. It is guarantied that your K/D will go up.
|
|
I tried the fps freeks out and liked at first but I could never get long range kills with them because it was so easy to over compensate (I have really big hands) and I remember thinking: "if they just took the stick out it would be perfect." Well, about a week later I got the email, they did it and they are PERFECT. I wouldn't write this review otherwise. My only wish is that they make them all black and convex like ps3 controller sticks. I emailed them about that and they said they were working on it. :D cant wait!
|
|
Was a bit skeptical about purchasing this product but after watching countless videos and reading plenty of reviews I had to give them a test. I can say now that I am very pleased that I did. Smooth game play great comfort-ability. I do have to admit it does take some time to get used to compared to your standard factory controller. But once you get used to it and tweak your sensitivity settings for your game, you will never want to go back.
|
|
I absolutely love the cqc freek. I use it in conjunction with the mw3 elite freek and my aim is PINPOINT accurate. If I see u....ur DONE!!!!! I hope they come out with a convex version of the cqc freek. Gotta love Kontrol Freeks!!!!!
|
|
I ordered these a few weeks ago and i have been nothing but pleased and a added bonus was that they came shipped in the mail in only 2 weeks!
|
|
Been using for quite sometime, forgotten about giving a review on it. Too great a product, after a day or 2 works wonders just remember to increase your sensitivity level for maximum effect, .. Highly recommended..
|
|
Amazing product. Allows you to really utilize the analog stick, increasing your aim dramatically. Very useful in "snapping" from target to target when there's multiple on your screen. Match the sensitivity with your control of the extended stick, and watch your k/d climb. My average game is around 24 kills 16 deaths, with your occasional negative game, ultimately resulting in an average k/d of 1.3 something. Since using the FPS Freek, I've been going 31-9, 28-6, no problem. My k/d is now 1.8 since the addition of the FPS Freek.
|
|
I want to make a revision to my first review. This product actually does make aiming smoother, but is not a substitute for skill.
|
|
This product had no effect, positive or negative, on my mediocre K/D ratio. In other words, if you suck at multiplayer shooters like I do, don't expect this product to suddenly make you better.
|
|
Before buying the ultra versions, I had the regular ones and the SNIPR versions. All of their products are amazing and there is not much more to say. The ULTRA one is fantastic and for anyone looking to increase their game, this is the product right here!
|
|
Got these a couple days ago and they are awesome. The grips really make it better for control and accuracy. I have long fingers so the added height really makes the controller feel more natural and helps increase my aim. And they are cheaper than most regular grips! If you are thinking about buying these, do it.
|
|
All my friends still dont understand why i have a 2.3 KD, and i havent told my secret yet. FPS freeks are great! easily boost KD
|
|
I bought these hoping to improve my trick shooting. After about 3 hours of getting used to them, they are absolutely amazing. They really help you get that pin point accuracy that you need in sniping. I play on 10 sensitivity and I always found it hard to pistol/spray with 10 but with these it actually feels like i'm playing on a lower sensitivity, it just makes it so much easier to control. The concave design has a lot of grip and feels amazing. I would highly recommend these to anyone.
|
|
I’ve been using them now for around a week and think they work great, and I’m not sure why but they do feel more precise, especially on the PS3. I’ve always felt that the analog sticks on the Playstation were really sensitive and the Football Freeks helped me balance that out a bit.
|
|
Wow this thing is perfect for my small hands!
I bought the FPS Freek and i tried really hard for a while to use it, however it was just to big for my tiny hands. So i gave it to my friend, and he loves it and stands by it. I was pretty sad that it didn't work for me.
When i found out that Kontrol Freek made shorter ones i was ecstatic. I had to have them.
I've been using them for a couple of days and i have to say that it works great. I love FPS type games and it works wonders on my K/D. I've notice i don't have to move as much to aim, and it makes my shooting more accurate.
I recommend it to all female gamers out there, or people with smaller hands to try these you won't regret it!

Hello loyal gamers. I noticed this set of FPS Freeks was lacking some reviews, so I figured I'd throw out my personal opinions/review for those reading. The MAJOR difference between the SNIPR FPS Freek & nearly every other style, is that the SNIPR is a convex shape (PS3 Style) instead of a concave shape (Xbox 360 Style). I know that this may upset a lot of Xbox 360 gamers, but I'm hear to tell you, as an Xbox 360 gamer, the SNIPR is now my favorite style of FPS Freek. When I originally started using it, I didn't think I would be able to adjust to the feel of it, simply because I've played Xbox 360 my entire gaming life and I wasn't used to the feel of a PS3 analog stick. It does take some time to adjust too, but in the long run, I find this style to be much more comfortable and affective than any of the other FPS Freeks released as of right now. Hope that helped some of you with your decision making.
Happy Gaming,
Robert (KillNasty)

Hey everyone, I figured I'd take the time to drop by and give a review to those of you that are looking at buying this pair but aren't 100% convinced it's the best thing for you. I have 3 different pairs of FPS Freeks: Prestige, SNIPR, and now CQC. I LOVE each of them, but up until the CQC, I never used a FPS Freek on my left analog stick. I never found it to be comfortable enough for me, so I went without it. Due to the size/design of the CQC, it is now a perfect fit for my play style. I find myself posting even better scores in Call of Duty games that I did before with just the right FPS Freek on. I am sure that it would work perfectly too with using both CQC's on both analog sticks for those of you that think these are "too much" of an extension and may seem them as "uncomfortable". Regardless, I've attached a video review of this product as well as a comparison to the other pairs I have to help persuade more of you to believe me when I say that this will improve your gaming capability.
Happy Gaming,
Robert (KillNasty)

After a couple hours my shots were getting smoother and my passes were getting quicker. No loss for 10 bucks, if it improves your gaming ability, why not?
|
|
It's an instant click to buy. The main reason hadn't picked up the old ones because they were too long, but the new ones are working out well, because its shorter and didn't take long time to get used to. They are working out pretty well. I do recommend them - why wouldn't you at least try them out?
|
|
I purchased these a while back and have loved them since day 1. I've increased my K/D and aiming is awesome. I tend to be a twitchy player without these and now that I use FPSFreeks controls are smoother and more accurate. one thing I had a slight issue with is on my PS3 they kinda hit the controller when you rotate 360 degrees. I would recommend these to any gamer that's looking for a competitive edge. Buy them now you won't regret it.
P.S. just ordered the Elite, CQC, and APEX models. I'll try to wright a review when I receive.

My FPS experience was quite splendorous yes, I said splendorous. I played the PS3 classic Resistance, as the Freeks claim to fit both the PS3 and Xbox 360 controllers - they worked great on both.
|
|
This is a must use for any FPS gamer. The results for my game have been awesome. I'm a Domination only player on COD that mainly seeks out captures. As a result my game play is very rush oriented. I've always hovered anywhere from 1.10 - 1.30 on K/D and usually 11% accuracy on level 2 sensitivity. Needless to say, I’m a very average player.
After about 2-3 games with KontrolFreeks I got the hang of it and haven't looked back as both accuracy and K/D has improved. Over my last 25 games I have a 1.6 K/D and a 16.5% accuracy on level 5 sensitivity.
|
|
So I got these babies last Tuesday, and I was quite excited, seeing as I'm already an FPS Freek owner, so I have good faith in the KontrolFreek brand. But boy, was I surprised. These bad boys are amazing. They've given me SEVERAL top 100 times on RacePro, with a couple of months break from the game. It's really incredible how good they are. And they're very nicely made. I've been abusing them, and I mean REALLY abusing them, and making them bend, but they're excactly the same shape, as they are new.. How is it possible? I have no idea, but if you're a race-fan, and you either don't have room for a racingwheel, or can't afford one, or just don't want to bash out alot of money for one, this is the way to go.
|

The first 10 minutes I was thinking this might be a little bit better but ultimately not worth the money and just some junk gizmo I'd throw in a drawer, however I was wrong. I've got to say after a few hours though it's pretty d*** great. Infact I don't think I'd like to race without it. Obviously it's not going to turn you in to the best player ever but it totally helps, no question. I have real difficulty doing those finer adjusting turns without wildly swinging the thumbstick, maybe I have dumb thumbs, maybe I'm getting old or the sticks are too short, but this really helped and made me feel more control of the car and without feeling hampered I actually found myself enjoying the game more too. Quick shipping to Australia too, thanks.

I have owned the original FPS Freeks and they were great but I love the fact that kontrolfreek has made a product specifically for a snipers needs. I have been an in-game sniper for as long as I can remember and it's nice to have a product that helps us become more 'accurate'. I like the fact that the design is convex so there is really no change in feel for PS3 users. I like the added height, it helps to a degree, but the cross-hair design is what really won me over. This is a great product if your interested in sniping and I would greatly recommend this as an upgrade for current FPS Freek users.

INSANELY FAST SHIPPING! Oh my goodness I had no idea they would ship nearly across the whole United States in 3 DAYS! They shipped from HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA. Which is far from the West Coast. Who knew someone could buy perfection for $10? The FPS Freeks are a must! I didn't know what I was missing out on when I saw them in one of FaZeCLAN's video. I didn't think they helped out on Accuracy that much but you don't know what your missing out on until you try them. At first after putting them on they feel awkward but after 30 minutes you cant play without them :) If you play on a sensitivity under 3 these are pointless to buy. They help you quickly aim in onto targets by the increased control over the thumbsticks. MUST BUY

These things are good!

Great, simple product that makes a huge difference. I've always had difficulty aiming with analog sticks, but once I tried out the footballfreeks I was instantly sold. The only thing that buyers should know is that for the PS3 controllers its a tight fit so make sure the legs that snap under the analog sticks are 100% on. After that they have worked like a charm!

I have never been one to buy accessories for my game systems. I figured my natural skills with the original hardware should be good enough. I saw their ad online and figured, why not? I got them, put them on my 360 controller...and I was blown away. It gradually helped improve my accuracy in (Halo) Reach! They feel great and you'll almost instantly notice the difference compared to using the regular analog sticks. I would definitely recommend this product (and will buy another pair or two in the future)!
Thanks Kontrolfreek!

Before getting these little knobs, I was playing MAG(PS3 exclusive) and was going about a .75-1.05 KDR, after installing these little puppies my KDR went up to around 1.45 and raising.
It allows better control for LMG weapons and greater accuracy on sniping, it utilizes that very small dead zone and allows you to get within mm of your target!
Used it on Demons Souls, and I have to say I was amazed by the control even on a RPG game, running was easier, as well as making sure my attacks landed.

Xbox 360 - I have the original FPS and I could never adjust to them. They were too tall with my thumbs raised so high and I felt like I didn't have control on my joysticks, even though the orginal FPS made my thumbs feel more comfortable. With CQC, its amazing I'm so happy that they made a shorter version. It fits perfect on my hands, my thumbs aren't raised too high, I have better contorl of my joysticks, it feels like your holding a controller without CQC on :) thats what I was waiting for, thumbs feel comfortable. Thank You Kontrol Freek for listening to all the feeback and coming out with these!

Don't get me wrong this product wont take you from the noob spray and pray killer that you are - but it will definitely help improve accuracy and slightly increase your KDR if you can get used to it. It took me about a solid week of playing with it before I got used to it. But over all my KDR has improved by about .4 which is not bad overall.

I cannot live without an FPS FREEK on my right thumbstick but I have not been using one on the left. I really wanted a FREEK that was a little bit smaller for the left and now, IT'S HERE! Thank you guys for listening to your customers and, yet again, coming out with something phenomenal. Its perfect!

My game has improved in a matter of hours using these things.
I got these little accessories with intention of improving my game. I wasn't expecting a huge difference but boy was I so surprised. I first tried em out with Battlefield 3 which was awkward in the beginning but after a few matches I was getting better using them. I was getting more headshot when aiming, making quick turns to aim at the enemy when being shot at and getting more response with overall movement. It didn't' stop here though, I put in Gears of War 3 and I was having just as much fun. My aim with the shotgun and lancer was so on point with what I wanted it to do. Overall this is one best accessories I have put my hands on in my 20+ years of gaming. Big ups to Kontrol Freek in the creation of these little guys.

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 force feedback wheel, these will do nicely.

Ever since I've gotten this my sniping and other guns have been improved my skill at MW2 has improved. It looks great! It feels great! Plus I'm going to show my friends and their going to love it.

I've used regular FPS Freeks on my controllers for 3 years. After trying the new CQCs I will never use anything else! They're great.

I love my KontrolFeek FPS's!! After a brief adjustment period and realizing I didn't need 2 on each controller, my game has increased easily by 1-2+ kills a game. These work! I get more control and increased my sensetivity, get that turn and kill when they can't. Plus, one set works for 2 controllers for me, since I just needed them on the right stick. Get Them, you'll be happy you did!

Excellent!! I climbed about two levels in a couple of days in FIFA 11. Before using FootballFreek I had been struggling for months at the same level.
An added bonus is that my thumbs are much less sore now after heavy gaming, which means I can play even more. What a bonus!!!

This was an innovative idea to have a sniper version of the FPS Freeks. They are higher than the normal ones and they are also convex. The design is nice and I like the grip. When I first put them on and started playing, they were doing okay. I do a lot of running in game and in the first game one of them came off. I know I snapped it on correctly so it wasn't my fault. Overall they are a pretty neat little addition to the FPS Freek Line up and I would recommend this to any snipers out there.
|

I have owned the original FPS Freeks and they were great but I love the fact that kontrolfreek has made a product specifically for a snipers needs. I have been an in-game sniper for as long as I can remember and it's nice to have a product that helps us become more 'accurate'. I like the fact that the design is convex so there is really no change in feel for PS3 users. I like the added height, it helps to a degree, but the cross-hair design is what really won me over. This is a great product if your interested in sniping and I would greatly recommend this as an upgrade for current FPS Freek users.

If you play Halo Reach, your DMR will be 5x better. You won't miss shots when your warmed up. Plus, I think they make every game easier! The required motion needed for precise aiming is a lot easier to repeat. I recommend them!

I have been using the Speed Freek for years and am very accustomed to its enhancing abilities. I have always wished that it combined the advantages of the FPS Freek as well, and this is exactly what the Speed Freek Apex does. In Forza Motorsport 4 there is no doubt that the Speed Freek Apex will shorten your lap times.

Hi, this review is an honest one. After 30 minutes i was used to my new kontroll freek Prestige, and i could ramp up my sens in Black Ops from 4 to 7, and it was much easier to controll and shoot!
Because of kf prestige, im able to act much faster and more accurate then ever before!
Im now a fan of kontroll freek, you should be too!:)

I'm not going to say it's bad because every thing in the world has its cons however the FPS Freek gaming attachments speak for its self when gaming with them. I will tell you one thing though, practice for about a week, or 1-3 days depending on your schedule. Allow your thumbs to adapt the positioning because at first you'll think this thing doesn't work at all. Trust me, it happened to me. I also let a friend borrow one and he said it sucks but honestly after about one week, man... I always hit the positive KDR's and i'm talking in the double digit to one digits like 30 kills to 5 deaths. This really works, no lie. Just spend some time practicing. Oh and another thing, this thing works with high sensitivity. The FPS Freek attachment makes a high sensitivity seem low. It's really cool. It all comes down to what your preferences as a player are. Currently I have the Black Ops edition or "The Prestige" edition but i'm pretty sure they all work the same way. This MW3 edition looks pretty bad @xx if you ask me. Well, happy gaming!

Love em so much just got me another set!!
|
|
i find these to be very helpful especially in BF3 because it helps me in scoped weapons which is a big part of the game. i woud recommend these to almost anybody, and sheeeesh its only 13$ people!

I bought these a long time ago but didn't care much for them. Recently put one on and increased sensitivity. With 18 days of black ops play I've had one 66 kill game. But while playing this weekend with fps freek I had 2 games of 70+kills. It takes a few games to get used to the speed but well worth it.
The one thing I don't like is when it's put on the ps3 controller it feels like it doesn't fit and the rubber from the stick looks like it comes off.
|
|
I was writing in capital letters because i cannot express my love for this product.My first match on when i used this product i went 29 kills and 9 deaths on Black ops.BUY THIS PRODUCT YOU WILL LOVE THEM
|

I bought these because frankly, as a PC gamer, I was sucking at Black Ops on my XBox 360. Controllers just are not an intuitive shooting tool for me. But after a week or so of use, my K/D went from usually sub-1.0 to 1.5-2.0! These things made a huge difference and I actually enjoy playing Call of Duty with my friends now.
The only downside I noted, is if you are like my Dad, who tends to press too hard when he gets excited, they can pop off since their grip on the controller isn't quite perfect.
Overall an excellent, cheap mod that does exactly what it promises.

It works on all fps games & it the " BEST PRODUCT EVER "
|
|
I honestly thought this was a gimmick, and something some distant company came up with to make a quick buck, but these are unbelievable and made in America! I have about 4 different sets of FPS now and the new speed apex. I love them so much its ridiculous. They do everything as advertised and I have had no trouble with them coming off or breaking. I really cannot believe the difference. Just try them, and let yourself get used to them. You will not regret it.

they work great just got them today I love them...My first game with them was a little sketchy but my second game was great..

I do not use both of the sticks I only use it on the right side stick the aiming stick. I found when it was on both sticks it made going to the d-pad a little bit more challenging. Works great for the aiming side. I also have a set of Modsticks on another controller. While the modsticks are far better and adjustable. not everyone wants to take apart a controller to install a mod. Dollar for dollar this is a great buy. A perfect addition to any first person shooter gamer.
