    The PC Master race sends its condolence to any one that paid $300 for this piece of shit.

      Exactly^ people with pc think they're a master race but what are they in the real world? Nothing at all. No one cares that you have a pc. It won't get you a job or get you married.

    • @Salati00
      @Salati00 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      inventivv I agree with you even tho I have a gaming pc, but the fact is that the pc masterrace thing is not referred to the people, but to the hardware. At least I hope so bhecause it would be really awkward if it wasnt.

    it looks cool but no, it is not worth $300. Think about it, with 100$ more you can buy a ps4.

    "Gives you a full QWERTY keyboard experience."
    C'mon. It gives us a QWERTY keyboard. "Experience" doesn't even have meaning anymore, thanks to PR.

    Looks extremely uncomfortable.

  • @Greencheez-y
    @Greencheez-y 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    More like a novelty item than an actual gaming device

    • @sbdwisp
      @sbdwisp 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      true, hence the high price. they realize that most people won't buy this, thus pricing it accordingly to maximize their profit on the few that will.

  • @Mineralvand1
    @Mineralvand1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Looks pretty cool, but waaaaay too expensive

  • @XerosXIII
    @XerosXIII 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    nice, still waiting for the half-controller/mouse hybrid
    the price point probably because of the material it uses, stainless steel? wonder how it feel after hours of playing

  • @happylittletree1727
    @happylittletree1727 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I hope they bring the price down by using more polymer rather than an all metal frame.

    • @vanillastien
      @vanillastien 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The metal isn't what makes it 300 dollars.
      It's a novelty item, they charge out the ass for the idea.

    • @happylittletree1727
      @happylittletree1727 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      True, but there are still ways to reduce the price such as selling the docks, keypad, touchpad, etc. Separately. All I want is a controller that works with ps4, Xbox, Pc, ios, and android. Then, they could reduce the price more by using cheaper materials. I agree that novelty items are a waste of good cash, but I still think they have ways to make this buyable for us peasants.

    • @mell6531
      @mell6531 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Philip Tree Good idea for us peasants xD

  • @Adefuye

  • @Vikcreed

    It would be rather cool if you could use a tablet and your phone at the same time with that last config.

  • @RelentlessRevolver7
    @RelentlessRevolver7 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Use that $300 for a new graphics card

  • @KarusukeV3

      for 300 dollars i'd rather get an audio DAC and an audiophile grade headset.

    Looks amazing but is pretty much useless unless you are amazingly lazy

    • @graysean

      Naw man even then. It's too much work taking it apart and reconfiguring it.

    Oh dear... Looks like Mad Catz are going the Apple route...

  • @ThiVasss
    @ThiVasss 10 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Anything than a 360 controller is not supported from games and so you have to bind keys, use 3rd party programs, have other techincal problems etc etc.

    • @ThiVasss
      @ThiVasss 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** While binding keys is easy it can be time consuming if you have to do it on every game and also there are some functions that don't work well when you try to bind. Like chaning menus with L and R keys.

    • @prezzeruk4054
      @prezzeruk4054 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Justin Espeoni 360 controller is awesome. Its better than xb1 pad in my opinion. The ps4 pad is way better than ps3 controller.

    • @OchoOh
      @OchoOh 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Justin Espeoni
      LMAO this weeaboo Xbox fan clown again.

    • @OchoOh
      @OchoOh 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      PREZZER UK True. If I had to pick one it would be a hard choice between the 360 controller and Dualshock 4.

    • @prezzeruk4054
      @prezzeruk4054 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** I think 360 pad was nigh on perfection. I like the ps4 pad but prefer the thumstick layout of 360 pad...maybe cuz I used 360 pad for so long...hated ps3 pad...thumbsticks too close and awful trigger buttons.

  • @1finallygotunleashed
    @1finallygotunleashed 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes, that is actually pretty sweet. No, it's not targeted at anyone other than mobile gamers, and even then, it's moreso a luxury item for the rich as fuck people who can afford a $300 controller. But I can't say I wouldn't want a controller with that design though. That shit looks like something out of a Bond movie.

  • @DJHyperRhythm
    @DJHyperRhythm 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It looks very uncomfortable to hold.

  • @HandlebarOrionX
    @HandlebarOrionX 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Pretty cool tech, but I'm worried it would be too sharp and pointy to the palms. And it looks more suited for hardcore tablet and phone and smart device multitasking than it does on the go use. I'd just keep i i that ultimate form seen at the end, plop phone into the top compartment and use it as a super device for streaming boxes and PC's.

  • @Kevfate

  • @creativebusinessunit7506
    @creativebusinessunit7506 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    "How cool is that?" You say? Its really cool, but shouting at your controller is weird for me. The controller looks pretty cool but I wish the handles werent so small. The last part of the video when you seperated the controllers parts and made it to be like connected to the tablet was awesome.

  • @GibranRisnutama
    @GibranRisnutama 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope the price of the parts isn't cost to much in case i lose it, especially the wing part.

  • @Jayman7070
    @Jayman7070 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    $300 for the most uncomfortable controller in the world.

  • @JayRM714
    @JayRM714 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    This should be like 120-140 dollars. No way in hell this is worth 300 bucks.

      Don Juan Oh ok ok. But theyre still expensive though.

  • @JB1unique

  • @arceusizdabest
    @arceusizdabest 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    too expensive.. for a modular Bluetooth controller

  • @jessechuff
    @jessechuff 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is really impressive, but i dont see much use for it overall unless you are REALLY into mobile gaming. It's impressive in that it has so many ways to use it, but i dont see anybody actively using this all the time.

  • @Crix525PR
    @Crix525PR 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I would only pay 100$ max for this controller. Its cool but not worth the money.

  • @NichoTBE
    @NichoTBE 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    people who buy this have too much money, pad costs the same as a PS4.

  • @nellycovers6914

  • @joedirt5430
    @joedirt5430 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    All controllers should be striving to make the 360's better. Its the perfect controller. PS4 is nice but I still feel more comfortable with the 360.

  • @FightCain
    @FightCain 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    The phone controller looks nice and all but doesn't Mad Catz feel like the controller have a hefty price? I think they use too much of their money on the design than making it cheaper.

  • @Kali_Bear1776
    @Kali_Bear1776 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @Jarvice

    Mobile games, one of the biggest thing in the world that shows: 'Three quarters of the world just thinks you're either blind, or you can just see perfectly.' This thing looks prety crap, or someone's dream of having a Transformer controller or something, just put a SUPER cheap speaker in it like PS4 and have it say: 'Autobots roll out!' And I'm sure it'll be a great success.
    But I'm serious, I've been playing games all my life, but through the years, my eyes have gotten worse, but funnily enough, the world just thinks games on smaller and smaller and even freaking smaller screens and shit is SOOOO fun, while it's still also just a 'FUCK YOU VERY MUCH" to people like me, not very surprising, but still. It's really suspicious how a site like Gamespot NEVER EVER in it's history has taken the slightest bit of effort to check something like that, because hey, it's nothing new for me that visually handicapped people are just... Outcasts basically. Most people will even just ask you: 'Oh, why don't you wear glasses or contacts then?'
    But sure world, keep making everything smaller and smaller. Except controllers'seriously, it's only the Japanese that would love controllers like this, or controllers like that of the PS3 >.

    Uhm... Not worth $300. The materials are definitely top notch, and the features are swell... I would say $140 tops. $300 is the better half of getting a next gen console or an intense graphics card.

  • @Rstraub12
    @Rstraub12 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks cool, but I don't trust Mad Catz and $300 is a hell of an investment. I'd buy something like this when mobile gaming is more like a console experience down the road.
    It would have to be a console experience because $300 is the price of a console, but you have to have a phone or device on to of that. There just isn't much software yet to justify this kind of purchase. Just stick to consoles or PC at this point.
