Initially when I saw these, I was skeptical that they would stay on the controller. They snap on very tightly and haven’t fallen off in the 2 months they’ve been on. I got them for my birthday in July and they haven’t been off my controller since, other than to see how much they change the way I play. They are awesome. Within one week of having them, my accuracy on COD4 went up .5%. I know that doesn’t sound like much, but considering that it has never improved in the 30 days playing time I have amassed, I think speaks for itself. On their site, Kontrol Freek recommends taking them off to see just how much they change the gaming experience. I took them off for a total of 45 seconds while playing COD4 and discovered just how much they change the way you play. I couldn’t hit a thing.
I’m 35 and I consider these to be one of the best birthday presents I’ve ever received. I’ve changed my 360 profile to be a billboard for Kontrol Freek in my bio. Totally worth the money. 5 stars isn’t enough to completely describe how I feel about these.

FPS Freak definitely improves your game. The added leverage helps your control as well as keep your thumbs feeling great. I was so excited about it that I preordered two when they first came out. Since then all of my friends are using them. I gave them a test, use my controller for a day and then play without one. With the FPS Freak my accuracy in Gears of War 2 is phenomenal (for a guy who isn’t the best at FPS games). I average around 90% headshots with them on (using my stats on [...]). They are great combined with the Speedfreak for some games (Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts and non-FPS games). They’re sturdy, cheap priced (not cheap quality!), and work for both the Xbox 360 and PS3. Go ahead, try a pair! You won’t regret it.

I was skeptical about these at first. They take some getting used to, and I only use the one on the right analog stick. But once you get used to them you will wonder how you ever played without them. I play COD MW2. You must also remember to crank up your sensitivity a couple of notches when you use them.

These have exceeded all expectations for such a small, inexpensive item. I bought these specifically to gain an advantage in COD MW2. My accuracy has increased dramatically; fewer wasted bullets and faster kills. I actually sped up the control speed, because these enable me to move slowly and accurately. I’m able to consistently nail headshots on running targets using assault rifles from a distance. Awesome! Definitely worth it… I just don’t want to tell too many people!

BEFORE:
While playing Call of Duty, Halo 2 and 3, and any other competitive first person shooter I would always struggle with the balance of the look sensitivity. For exmaple since Modern Warfare 1, I played with a look sensitivity of 4. This setting was great for me and I excelled at it. I could aim accurately but was not able to scan an entire room or quickly glance behind me an then snap back to the front again. To remedy this problem I did experiment with higher look sensitivity settings, like 6 or 7, I loved the ability to snap look around, but alas I lost my precision accuray, finding myself looking way to far past my target and then trying to correct it swinging past the target again, and then I was dead! So frustrating.
TESTING THEM OUT:
So now I tried the FPS thingees, and I have to say look sensitivity level 4 is way to slow, in fact I tried 6 and was pinpoint accurate and able to snap look around, again still under complete control of my character movements and aiming. So I was blown away by these, I had to put them to the test. I joined a Free For All game on Modern Warfare 2, and put my look sensitivity up to the “level 10 Insane” setting. Man, I was striking down foes with ease and spinning on a dime accurate. In fact I won the game! While 10 was sllightly a little too fast, I turned it down to 7 and found my sweet spot.
Testing My Skills without them after a week of using them:
Ok, so I take these FPS thingees off, to tet out my old skills.
Guess, what? I could still play on look sensitivity 7! I was like wow, these have trained me to be able to use this high look setting of 7. The only thing is that the nubby joysticks are actually ncomfortable on my fingers, yea that’s right they feel “blocky” like a plastic lego. Another thing is that I actually went back to a level 4 after a week, because it was a hassle to try to aim long distance with pinpoint accuracy without the lower setting of 4 and without the FPS thingees.
One thing I liked about them not being on is that I can more easily hit the “back” button to view the score, which really isn’t a big deal.
So I kept the FPS thingees off for a week, and I just had to try them again.
Guess what back to level 7 accuracy.
PS> You can still knife just fine with these on.
OVERALL:
Cheap.
Worth the money.
Improved my gameplay. i.e. accuracy, mobility, and scanning a room quickness.
Was not disappointed.
Still use em, still prefer em.
Highly recommend them!
