Quick there's a scruffy white dude looking at the xbox controller, send out the cute little Asian girl. Heard. goukijones literally gets a hand all over experience with the new Razer Onza controller for Xbox 360.

Seriously, everything was completely professional. I did not care for this controller at all. I don't like cords and it comes with a 15 foot cord. sad face. There is no confirmed wireless version. The two extra shoulder buttons are programable and that is a cool idea. But they are too close togther. Maybe that would take some getting used to. I was also not impressed with the d-pad. Microsoft just created the twisty d-pad, which is great. The Razer Onza has another flat surface for the d-pad. Jimmy don't like that. The highlight of the controller is the adjustable thumbsticks. I really think that will make a huge differnce in any FPS experience. Hey yo, send me a wired one for free and then maybe I'll consider buying a wireless one.

Just seems like another controller to me. I never felt the need to adjust my sticks. I think if I'm going to buy a new controller I'll just buy one of the new MS ones with the twisty d-pad.

Everything you described is exactly what I want. I never play FPShooters with a wireless controller because of the lag, when I pull the trigger I want someone dead. I do imagine having those extra buttons up there is going to be weird at first but I think it'll help out a good bit. I dont use bumper jumper in Reach so i would make one of those jump so i dont have to take my hand off my thumbstick. In need for speed all of the weapons are on the d-pad, i'll be making that remapped to those buttons so i dont have to take my finger off the sterring wheel, aka, left thumbstick. Only nubs play games with that d-pad so that's not a big factor for me. All in all, exactly what I want. How did the texture of the controller feel? It's supposed to be sweat resistant or some shit.

@thabrad - completely ridiculous comment. " I never play FPShooters with a wireless controller because of the lag" What are we talking about tenths of a second? Or even half of that? The d-pad is awful. As far as sweat resistance, that's gotta be something I test hands on. Texture didn't feel any particular way to me.

@GoukiJones - Hell yes that's what we're talking about. You out of all people should know how fast people move and how fast you're swinging a reticule over someone's head. Difference between a hit and a miss in some cases. Oh nevermind, you don't have to worry about that, In that tank you just have to be close!
