Horipadfpsplus

I mainly play shooters so i was looking for a backup controller to my Scuf Impact and stumbled across the Hori FPS Plus. Now i owned all of the Xbox consoles so i am very familiar with the stick layout but have zero issues with the dualshock 4 layout. Upon opening the Hori I wad not super impressedYes i knew it was going to be light due to not having the vibration motors but it just seemed kinda cheap and plasticky. Its similar to the 360 controller design and didn't feel that bad in my hands. Loaded up Fortnite and any negative feelings about the controller disappeared immediately. The triggers despite how they appear in pictures work great. I can swap weapons with L1 and R1 so much faster it isnt funny. Then the L2 and R2 have shorter travel distance than that of the dualshock 4 or my Scuf and makes it much easier to win gunfights. My accuracy also seems much better this far. My kills per match has doubled easily. Also note there is no headphone jack but I use a wireless controller so i dont need it. And the instructions are in Japanese so you will need them translated to figure out the special buttons. Im not using them nor did i plan to so i haven't used rhe turbo feature. Still great controller for the price.EDIT....forgot to mention that the cable is about 9ft long which is far too long for my desktop setup. I have it tied off so im not tripping on itAlso its a cheap rubber which tangles easily. Which it was braided and removable like the one on the Nacon Revolution version 2. That way it could be replaced if damaged or switched with a much shorter cable for people that dont need a 9ft cable

10/10 quality for the price. Awesome controller fits perfect in 'man hands'. Controller is lightweight and fills your grip just like the Xbone controller does. Great if you hate the stick placement and lousy battery life the Dualshock has, like I do.The buttons are snappy and it has light trigger pulls for less hand fatigue. I own an Xbox Elite pad and I prefer this Hori to it.I love the offset left analog stick. It was the reason I bought it. The Nacon is not as nice as this one for the money... save you money and buy 2 of these and a new game too (for the price)!The neatest thing about the controller is the L2 and R2 buttons. Fully pressed is a half pull, push a little more us a full pull.I'm playing Sniper Elite 4 and the L2 button is awesome because a regular pull brings up the crosshairs, a slightly firmer pull brings up the scope. Less hand fatigue than the half analog pull it takes on the Dualshock. Basicallt the desd zone is a half pull and slightly firmer is a full pull.It sucks that this isn't wireless. So spend an extra $10 and get a 10' USB 3.0 extension cord to go with it. It works fine in conjunction with the controller. I got the TNP Superspeed 3.0 and it came delivered (on a Sunday even!) with the controller.

I wanted an alternative to the DualShock 4 controller and have found they are severely lacking. This is one of the few on the market. This controller can be used with a PS3 or PS4, with a simple switch on the bottom edge of it to designate which console you are using it with. Also, keep in mind that this is a wired controller, and has a long cord of about 10 feet. I had no issues with the cord being long enough to reach the console from my couch. It also lacks rumble, motion sensor, and the light bar. It does have a fully functional touchpad though.The FPS Plus is a bit larger than a traditional DualShock 4 and is shaped more like an Xbox One controller than a DS4. It is also very light weight because of the lack of motors for the rumble and a battery, yet it does not feel flimsy. It has asymmetrical sticks like Xbox controllers, so if you can't stand that I would pass on it. I find it to be very comfortable in my hands, and I like the covering for the sticks because it lacks the ridges around the edge. It has a nice sticky feel so it doesn't feel like my thumbs will slip off. Also the triggers and bumpers are larger than found on a DS4. Speaking of the triggers, they are not analog triggers, just on/off, making this controller useless for driving games. This was obviously designed for shooters and action games.As for fans of shooters, this controller has a tiny little trigger on the button of the controller, easily accessible with your left middle finger. When you hold this trigger down it lowers the sensitivity of the right stick, so you can make fine aiming adjustments, going back to normal as soon as you release it. There are 3 different sensitivity settings that are easily switched between using a switch next to the PS4/PS3 one. I tried this out in Ratchet and Clank and it actually works well. There is a definite difference between the 3 settings, with the lowest being super slow for aiming, the middle somewhat slower than regular aiming speed, and the highest just slightly slower than regular.Other features include being able to assign a turbo function to any particular button, and the ability to copy one button to another. With the turbo feature, you can adjust how fast it repeats. The button copying function, when used multiple times, is a way you can remap buttons, if in a rather tedious manner.The instructions come in Japanese but there are good videos on Youtube that show you how to use the various functions, Just search for "fps plus tutorial" on Youtube to find some.Concerning the price, I paid about $50 for it. Is it worth the money? That depends on what a person wants out of it. I see this controller being advantageous for people who play shooters a lot, especially when combined with some stick extenders. The turbo and button remapping may not be useful with many of today's games but some people will like those functions. I like the controller and it's nice to not have to worry about the battery dying, to avoid having to interrupt gameplay to switch to another controller. I would like to see something like this with analog triggers so it can be used for more variety of games, but I would recommend it to fans of any shooter or actions games that don't require the motion sensor, and who don't mind asymmetrical sticks.PROS:LightweightNice feel to buttons and sticksComfortable to hold for long periods of timeAiming assist trigger for precision aimingTurbo and remapping functionsNo rechargingCONS:You are tethered to a wireNo analog triggersThe D-pad isn't as good as the DS4 oneInstructions in Japanese onlyPrice could be a little cheaper considering the lack of rumble, motion sensor and wireless capability
