 Failed after some weeks Aug 07, 2008
Nevermind, after i wrote that, i go to the official webpage to this product, i download the lastest firmware, and it's fix my problem :-) ... now, is a great controller again :-) ... I am happy again playing COD4 ...
------------------------
Well, before I bought this Controller, I read at least all reviews, with 5 stars to 1 star ... I notify that people reports that the buttons turn into a stuck state ... well, I bought anyway, hoping that i will get some lucky about it ... In the begin to use, Some buttons were hard to push, after use, they were more softlly to push, but now, last week, when i play COD4 and I push de fire button (Left click -R1 in a SixAxis-) the triangle button seem to be pushed too, and the triangle button is use to switch weapon ... in the middle of a battle, that's so deadly -btw, i didnt push the traingle button, it's pushed by itself- ... well, I'm pissing off right now and some kind of frustrated. When the controller worked fine, was a great controller, but now I just get some kind of hate about it.
 FragFX (WEAKNESS) Jul 26, 2008
I have had the FragFX controller for about 3months now. It works awesome if you're after instant precise aiming. After the first month the support for the left grip broke off. So now holding the left grip is painful on the hand after multiple hours of use. After about 2.5 months the left anaolog plastic is cracked inside the controller, causing it to constantly move slowly right. Quite often now it automatically presses L2 when pressing the left analog in and moving. It constantly turns itself off, making it a major hassle in a first person shooter game (cod4). And now after 3 months of owning it with the new firmware installed, the mouse stops working altogether when it feels like it, and the firmware has to be re-installed to get the function back. But now my controller is pretty much unusable and I lost my ability to play cod4 with my regular analog controller. These are just the problems that occur after usage, not the minor ones it starts with.
Controller design problems: The left grip is too small, if the support is broken and you have to actually hold it instead of place your hand atop it, it will cause numbness in my left ring finger that can last up to a day. The sensitivity wheel is in a bad spot, it is constantly getting moved by the finger that is wrapped around the small controller. The D-pad is in a bad spot and angled a bit off. It should be higher than the left analog for easier access, and on the same axis as the analog stick which it is not. The frag button is pretty much useless, I never use it. The wired version has tension on the mouse which is majorly undesired when playing a FPS game. If the wire wasn't there it would be much more efficient. There is a plastic raised portion in between the 4 ps (square, triangle, etc) buttons on the mouse controller. It should be raised out another quarter inch to keep from accidentally hitting any of those 4 buttons when gripping the mouse.
Other than these major problems with the FragFX controller it's great. If they would make it stronger and WAY more durable along with better firmware, it would be unstoppable. It's the best first person shooter control I've experienced. I just hope when the wireless version comes out they make it A LOT better.
But I can say the splitfish company is good, since they are replacing my FragFX controller for free. I don't even have to return my broken one, although I'd rather, because what better play testing is there than 3 brutally constant months.
 Doesn't work Jul 16, 2008
This is waste. Doesn't even work with any other game but COD4 and Hardware is very cheap made.
 Why so negative? Jul 12, 2008
First, I am a 10 year PC FPS gamer so something like this is needed for me to enjoy them on consoles. I received my FragFX today and so far I really enjoy it. It works fine and is not a cheap piece of crap as many of these reviews will lead you to believe. I upgraded my firmware with no problems and have customized it to run with a few games so far. It can be a little tricky to customize on some games (such as Quake Wars), but a little tweaking and your done. I recommend it to PC FPS players. It's at least worth a try to see if you like it better than the controller.
Don't know how I consoled without it!!! Jul 11, 2008
I've been into FPS's since the beginning...I have never been a fan of FPS's on consoles because I hate the sticks. My friends got me into CoD4 on my PS3 and I ended up coming across this controller.
My first experience with it was similar to those reviews where people are saying the mouse responsiveness seems slow or even laggy, just a tad behind your actual movements. Plugging it in out of the box I experienced this as well. I was getting worried and disappointed because my kill/death ratio was much better on the Sixaxis PS3 controller.
I jumped on Splitfish's website and I updated my FragFX's Firmware...that did the trick. CoD4 now feels like I am in CPL again on CounterStrike!!!
I highly recommend this controller!! Thanks Splitfish!!
