And since I'm a lazy gamer, I hated having to get up to plug my controller in when it was low on power.
Another major plus is the extended USB cable believe me the added length makes a difference. maybe I should dip back into the world of Demon Souls, which also uses the right trigger to attack.
I seriously didn't mind that it was there. I can't stand it! But because the triggers on this controller jut out further than the standard DS, the entire attack process felt way more comfortable. Then I entered Two Worlds II now in this game, you use the right trigger to attack, which I hate with a passion. I don't know if its the feel of the buttons, but I was killing it. With SnakeByte, I hit 17, 18, plus combos. With the standard controller, I was able to pull off, at max, maybe a 10 - 12 combo. The first game I tested with the controller on was Batman Arkham Asylum. A big plus are the triggers, which have really improved my gaming. First of all the controller itself is more ergonomic and it feels more comfortable than the standard dualshock controller. I'm not kidding the functionality of SnakeByte's controller is unmatched. Also included in the package is a ten foot USB cable and two clip-on triggers for your original dualshock controller.Īnd with that, on with the TOV Breakdown.īelieve it or not, once I got my hands on the SnakeByte's controller, I literally tossed out my standard one. Other than that, it's simply a larger PS3 controller. Another major difference are the two added buttons - one turbo and one clear. Other than the size of the controller, what makes this PS3 controller stand out is the colors on the buttons and the L2/R2 trigger buttons which protrude further out than the standard controller, which brings in some of that Xbox 360 functionality. But don't let that detract you from giving it a go (we'll get into that with the breakdown).
The SnakeByte Premium PS3 Bluetooth Controller, at first glance, is larger than the standard controller and it would appear unwieldy. And while I find that the SnakeByte controller has some quirks, I still think its BETTER than the standard issue.
So it was cool to finally explore my options with this new setup. As Playstation controllers or better yet PS3 controllers go, I haven't had too much experience with the different varieties out on the market. This round we'll tough it out with the Premium Playstation 3 Bluetooth Controller. Last bout we took on the XL+ Wii controller. Hey folks, Valkor here back with another round with Sunflex.
