Razer Onza Tournament Edition: Review

[MercenaryOfOZ]

I like it so far...takes a while to get used too....especially the triggers

[HDCRdrummer]

im literally 1ft from my xbox in my setup and want a good wired controller, since there are two break aways, can i plug the pig tail in the first slot of the cord to shorten it?

[123corone]

ive been using for like 2 months, still working fine, when i first bought it was hard to get use to but after about an hour i was fine( but i LOVE this controller)

[LeGiTxRebeL]

can't believe this is your first review good work and I'm defiantly getting this controller now :D

[hajs55]

is it possible to map the extra right bumper to your right trigger? So you can get sort of a paintball trigger effect if you're using semiauto guns?

[StuNixX]

This controller is great for call of duty, first time i used it i got a 4,3 kd (i usually play on pc so when i play xbox my kd is 0,8-1,05 normally)

[PwnforceFrank]

@StuNixX So you suck.

[StuNixX]

@PwnforceFrank Read the comment... i suck on xbox yes, because i dont usually play on it, im much better on pc.

[F8TLCOWz]

@TheRedLute its easier to tag, program the right bumper to select so tagging is easier. And bfbc2? Bf3!!!!

[TheRedLute]

@F8TLCOWz I find it harder to tag with the programmable button than with back. But youre right. BF3!

[flex487]

$50 is Amazing in Australia a controller costs $70ish

[reaperear]

its the same price as a xbox 360 controller(pretty much)...no brainer. buy it

[TheRedLute]

Its not that much better than the original Xbox Wireless Controller. I actually prefer the shape of the Microsoft one. And the "Start" and "Back" buttons are placed so stupid. You cant tag in BF BC2.

[Sk3elly]

@TheRedLute Well you know you could program one of those programmable buttons to the back button.

[TheRedLute]

@Sk3elly Yes, but its much harder to hit the programmable button while aiming and shooting than the Back button. I still prefer the onza after ive got used to it.

[kmscws]

will this work with a chatpad

[Ir0nStein]

@kmscws No, sorry :C

[FC3Gaming]

Im going to get it right now!!!!

[UberBussell]

Don't buy it, it's a good controller but it breaks WAY to easily. Do NOT waste your money on it until Razer fix their shit.

[kmscws]

will the xbox 360 avenger fit on this.

[TheCausualKid]

I got the TE controller a few days ago and i love it!! personally i love the way the triggers feel but the one thing i dont like about it is where the back and start buttons are. But i will get used to it. i am still trying to figure out what to do with the MFB but im sure i will find a use! and that was a great review! hope to see more soon!

[razorkid95]

I got the tournament edition. I've had it less than 24 hours and I have to wipe the sweat off my hands occasionally.

[bullxetmw3]

I didnt think it was expensive, i was looking on Controllerchaos website and a custom controller is like 160 bucks, even higher depending on what you want done to the controller. I was thinking about geting one for the drop shot feature, but since i saw Hutch do a review on this one here i decided to look into it.

[MegaSerpensortia]

omfg he´s got magic thumbs !!!

[cfox109]

I heard the thumb sticks were actually longer then the normal xbox controller to kind of give it the fps freek feel

[diz096]

@cfox109 they do look higher and from what heard they are i am picking one up for witcher 2 and skyrim on pc the mouse problems drive me insane.

[MrAapenkind]

i got i for 40 euro its a beast contoller tank you !!

[Terjay]

50 bucks? Boo-fucking-hoo. It costs 80 euros in Finland which is almost 110 USD.

[ekiboy]

@Terjay under 55e..

[OnlyXfox]

@Terjay I know, right! They always add some to the price when they sell it here up north!

[sweepxcore]

and also, i think the sticks are higher than the offical controler anyway, so you dont need the freeks on effectively

[sweepxcore]

yeah the fps freeks should fit, mine did! and it feels so good, better than the original, really ergonomic!

[WStar4Life]

@iBashTV the freeks fit on it fine. Just put full tension on the joysticks, put the freeks on, and return the tension collars against the freeks. With the collars against the freeks theres really not that much tension at all. Also, are you from Pittsburgh?

[snbj18]

btw it isnt posseble to use the steelseries 5xb with the razer onza

[snbj18]

omg its so cheap is the USA, in norway it costs like 110$!!

[kjatys]

@snbj18 kjøp den over nettet da. 300 kroner sikkert med frakt. billigere enn en vanlig kontroll i butikken.

[flex487]

good job

[MilkyCamps]

regular wired controller: 39.99

razer ONZA Tournament edition: 49.99

lmao how is that expencive haha it is even less than the wireless controller haha

[alex801848]

is the controller still working properly now? I've been reading about the controller not being able to last through a month or two, is yours still holding up? Please let me know!!! If it doesn't last for only a few months then it's really a deal breaker for me (for anyone, really)

[Stanhawk500]

Very good review, nice one :)



[misunderdose]

is the controller durable?

[CaptainMcMuffin100]

It's only another $10 USD for the extra features on it, plus the 15ft braided cable, so I don't see how that's expensive...

[V4NN1LLANOV4]

Good job man i will subsribe!!! and of cause thumbs up!!!

[colt9784]

For all of the people saying its not alowed for mlg, it isn't legal in BLACK OPS tournements it is legal in halo reach tournements now though (it wasn't when it came out)

[DHeroDogmaPS3]

good review good speaker

[SiracusaWE]

You think it's expensive, but it isn't.

$50 = R$80 (Brazil)

In Brazil it cost

R$210 or 128 dollars

A game here cost R$200 = US$122

A Xbox 360 Slim 250gb cost R$1600 = US$980

All because of the HIGH taxes

[TheOmniscientAtheist]

i bought one last month, and trust me it doesnt feel like an oficial one - hate to say it but despite all of the great new features i still coudnt get over the cheap feel, and the price £50 UK - nearly twice as much as an official. i woudn recommend this at all

[bood3e]

50 dollars? lol, it costs 70€ in Finland. that's 100.87700USD

[TheTonistark95]

nice review just order mine today

[EaglesFootball13]

50 dollars on the pricy side for a "tournament remote controller" hmmmm he must not know how much a wireless 360 remote goes for...

[LaughinGarry]

@EaglesFootball13 Except that the Onza is not wireless, Einstein.

[EaglesFootball13]

@LaughinGarry Which prooves my point even more how crap it is...Einstein

[LaughinGarry]

@EaglesFootball13 You did NOT make such point anywhere in your comment.

And since when is price a measurement for quality? Microsoft accessories are always overpriced.

[EaglesFootball13]

@LaughinGarry Since you cant buy a android phone for less than 80 dollars...You pay for what you get

[LaughinGarry]

@EaglesFootball13 Haha! Comparing phones and gamepads (market-wise) is like comparing water recycling and car assembly.

[EaglesFootball13]

@LaughinGarry Ok smart-ass this one better? You wont find a modded remote for less than 50 dollars

[LaughinGarry]

@EaglesFootball13 This one isn't remote, it isn't modded and it's price was never regulated by Microsoft. And the last point has the largest impact on the price.

[xasasin22]

this controller is a fail i had it for 2-3 weeks and the tension on the left stick got really weak and when i press the left stick to run in MW2 it wont work when its at the tightest tension. dont buy this unless u wanna waste money

[arkman117]

Had for less than a month and buttons quite working and tension on thumb sticks got weak to were it was just like normal less than a month! Product FAIL!

[l3allinJames]

Soo my mircosoft controller just died, 4th one in like 3 years. Going to buy a razer, hope it works with astros, and doesn't take too long to get used too.

[GuIVslingerGaming]

@l3allinJames Same here I just bought it and Im just hoping its good because Razer makes the very best PC gaming gear out there

[l3allinJames]

@GuIVslingerGaming Yeah, I bought it a couple hours ago too. I don't know if I should of just bought the normal xbox 360, it seems harder to aim/snipe with the longer triggers.

[JSansiTV]

i wasnt a fan of bash before this.... and now i am. excellent review bash.

[denver5280rocketmail]

yo son you got a good review right here dawg u earned my subscription.

[MEANCRACKEN2]

so for the bumper buttons? are the top ones set to default when you buy the controller or are the bottom ones set to the default?

[MrScreamCream]

I got the Mad Catz black ops edition one, i fkin love it ;O

[xXHarryR18Xx]

why have 2 auxiliary re mappable bottoms with the razer, when you can have 6 with the Viking 360!

[dnbmania]

I would love to have those hyper-response buttons on everything on the controller. (D-pad, bumpers, start + back and stick clicks) It's such a luxury feel :D And have the multi-function buttons on the back where most rapid fire mods are placed too. That would be my perfect controller.

[xSpilz]

I cant sprint with this thing

[tylynn169]

@xSpilz try using the extra buttons on the top

[flashevolution]

this controller is on sale for 39.99 right nowon amazon.com

[FoxrotPs3]

why the fuck would u buy a controller like that just own with oldschool no modded controllers ligths or adjustable shit

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@FoxrotPs3 It's not a modded controller, It's a professional controller that allows for more accurate gaming, It's better than those peice of shit wireless controllers Microsoft gives you for the same price.

[ruper31]

@555GB how much is a regular one? Here both Wired and wireless controllers are $40

[douglasman100]

Made by razer, then it must be good...wait why am am i watching this

[Pvanid]

paul pierce



[FilmingIsMyLife]

This or regular xbox controller?

[CuceTR]

@FilmingIsMyLife regular is better

[ruper31]

@FilmingIsMyLife they are the same price

[TheSuperMaximus94]

@FilmingIsMyLife This! They are awesome!!

[flashevolution]

@FilmingIsMyLife i think this controller is made more for FPS games so it might not work as well for other games such as fighting games.

[kickintushy]

i liked it and i play PS3 :o

[scar432]

ok im gonna trust you and get tournament edtion in best buy

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@scar432 F bestbuy! They never have it in stock... Infact.. It's an online only item... Go to Amazon. Much better service.

[LuffarrN]

Bad things about it

* The triggers is really bad, they kinda hurt after a while.

* They should put the "back and start" button like it was on the orginal xbox 360 controller, much easier to see the gamescore in COD

[alex97k]

nice review! going to get the termanent edetion on my birthday (29/6) so will say then how i feel about it!!

[xTeChNiQuEzHD]

preety cool review , nice guy subscribed ;) x

[1n1duJ]

My Prestige FPS Freeks fit on top of the thumbstick

[thebassinator96]

bash you da shit!

[matt1928fly]

hey great review but i just wanna make sure does this have a mic port?

[flashvlad]

I'm a PC gamer and i don't own a console, yet i bought this gamepad just to feel the games as if playing them on a console. The feeling is great but it wouldn't be possible without this masterpiece of a gamepad.

[Banditooisclutch]

You Look eritrean.lol

[NoobyTheNinja]

UPDATE: Kontrol Freeks do fit!!! You just have to tighten the sticks up all the way and then loosen them again and the Kontrol Freeks will fit really nice!!!

[qopzHD]

i have a controller that was 180 US dollars its modded though :)

[AliveDog]

Just got it. Doesn't really feel right. The extra bumpers are kind of useless in the heat of combat since they're so far away.

[IVIOLDIFICATION]

i will only get these if you can put kontrol freeks on so if anybody knows please tell me

[bizhop11]

@IVIOLDIFICATION

Nope, they won´t fit as he shoes in the video...but the analog sticks are raised so it really works fine without them, i´ve been playing with freeks for a long time and had no problem just using the analog sticks on the Onza.

And the adjustable tension works really well for me, turned the tension up a few notch and it felt like my acc. improved instantly....

[GenocidalProduction]

Can you feel a decrease in the response of the aim- and the triggerbutton compared to a normal 360 controller? Cause it looks like you need do push the buttons further than normal.

[Jambo4sfmm]

@GenocidalProduction Seen a video. Its the same I think :).

[ViolentReality]

you dont need control freek, the analog sticks are already raised :3.

[SuppMyKneeGrows]

does it vibrate?

[DotcomDisco]

can you use Tritton AX Pros with this? I think I heard somewhere that they don't plug in correctly

[tmiller974]

I keep hitting the grenade button instead of the trigger. Lost a lot of gun fights because while I'm shooting, my finger rolls upwards and tries to throw a grenade! Still haven't used it long enough, just got it this afternoon. Can I reprogram that button?

[69theworks]

my controller just shit out i cant run.. im buying it

[dcccapfan]

I got mine and I seem to have a pretty bad scope movement on my right thumbstick I can not even be pushing down and the look moves down. Has anyone come across this same issue?

[Oblidenorator]

@dcccapfan ya it not very common though ive heard

[kazora1001]

i dun like the 2 shoulder buttons. they are too cramp, i always accidentally press it

[levimoreno]

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU--I can't use my FPS Freeks with this?! Well there's no point in me buying this then. I've tried playing without the Freeks before, and it was a trainwreck.

[TikklerGaming]

@levimoreno

Not as much, but the sticks are higher than regular sticks :P

[soldierlyfever]

@levimoreno If you could use them, it would negate the effect of them, because of the tension adjuster's in the analog stick's

[SJGSpook]

@levimoreno Pointless putting freeks on the Razer because the sticks are highly accurate anyway.

[LuffarrN]

I have whaited about 2 months for this one to come to sweden.

[0SpyderScope]

I've heard that when you plug in Turtle Beach, you get a staticy noise or something in your headset. Is that true?

[ThaDanHD]

@0SpyderScope mine work fine

[MrLaith7]

@theguywhofrappes ahhaha :D youre the king :D ahhahahaha

[GREYTRACK]

Got my controller yesterday. Played for about 2 hrs with it. It feels great, buttons are very responsive. Use tactical in cod so I can finally win a knife fight. Lol

[thematt121295]

how is $50 expensive its the price of the regular it is much better than the stock controller

[JonaMo0]

50 dollars is gonna run on the pricey side? haha i guess he forgot how much microsoft sells their controllers for....

[holycowitschris]

@JonaMo0 That's exactly why I decided to buy it instead of a microsoft controller.

[nightman922]

@JonaMo0 microsoft controllers are 40-50 dollars

[JonaMo0]

@nightman922 Wireless ones are 50. But so is the onza. Sooo Thats not real pricey in my books. :P

[nightman922]

@JonaMo0 onza is 40 and i didnt say it was pricey

[JonaMo0]

@nightman922 Tournement Edition is 50. Check it on amazon my friendly!

[zipper978]

@JonaMo0 uh the wired xbox controller is 40 bucks. hes not talking about the wireless controller. you dont want to use a shitty wireless controller for tournament play.

[JonaMo0]

@zipper978 I know this but whats ten dollars more? Nothing if you work for your money.

[zipper978]

@JonaMo0 well if you actually do compete in tournaments the extra 10 bucks for the Onza is pointless. on the account that the onza is not aloud at any tournaments, because of the two programmable buttons. they should really change the name of their product

[2point0productionz]

@zipper978 the tournament edition is aloud...

[N3CR055]

@2point0productionz It is allowed in Halo tournaments only. No CoD tournaments or any other game because of the programmable buttons.

[zipper978]

@2point0productionz no the tournament edition is NOT aloud. I compete in MLG and I know for a fact 100 fucking percent that this controller is BANNED from tournament play because of the two extra programmable buttons.

[iiAIpha]

My only problem is that I got a defect.. The Xbox guide button doesn't work for me when I click it. It lights up though! Based on looking around though, it seems like it works great for most people, I just got unlucky.. And Razer has a warranty, so I'm just going to return it and get a new one. Aside from the broken button, it works great! Has anyone else had this problem? Or a problem with any broken buttons?

[fallenjj]

Awesome controller! Takes a while to get used to the remappable buttons and moved back and start buttons. I also hate the triggers, but I'm getting used to them.

All n all great controller for pc emulator users, xbox gb players, and pc gamers who use game pads.

[iAmCaK3]

Kool, I thot when I buy the controller it wuld be a piece of shit but its not.

[cliffhanger611]

the controller seems well built to me plus I also like that it is lighter than a regular xbox controller

[brunosmydog]

in mexico all controllers cost 800 pesos or more it sorta equals to 80 dollars

[gamerneekzBC2]

are you somalian?

[PeanutJohansson]

i thought u were mexican  eiher way your a fucking highlarious beast

[toadslayer72]

Pretty good review, I will have my Onza in my hands tonight. The reason I'm commenting is to tell you what I plan on doing to make the Kontrol Freeks work. I'm gonna cut the tabs off the Freeks and epoxy to the sticks on the Onza. I'll let you know how it works.

[LaxKilla56]

Tmartn sent me

Ur a nooby booty

[eggmanIZballin]

u look like b.o.b with those glasses man

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

You forgot the adjustable tention analog stick feature, how did you like that?

[jumpshothurst14]

@TJbatmankillaTJ no he didn't, shut the fuck up

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@jumpshothurst14 He didn't review it, he mentioned it, but he didn't say crap about it. You STFU. Go troll on the rapid fire mod controler videos.

[AmazeTheCodCommunity]

@TJbatmankillaTJ 2:18 bro,

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@AmazeTheCodCommunity he didn't say much about them... he mentioned them, but there was no explanation as to how they helped, or how he like them. honestly, I'm quite saddened by this review :(

[JoeMWebster]

@TJbatmankillaTJ he dud mention it dumbass

[JoeMWebster]

@TJbatmankillaTJ he  did mention it dumbass* :)

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@JoeMWebster Yes. But he didn't review it. Btw, nice Fail save :)

[JoeMWebster]

@TJbatmankillaTJ how can you review it , it's off your personal preferanceee :P , thanks for the recognition of my fail save :)

[zunetrav4]

@TJbatmankillaTJ Yea that's the main feature I'm interested in

[corneyleinchen]

@TJbatmankillaTJ 2:20

[FeeLtheHertZ]

@TJbatmankillaTJ He mentions it at 2:10..

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@FeeLtheHertZ Yes, but does he explain how it helped him? I'm not trippin' balls, The reason why I came to this video is to see how he liked this feature and how it helped him. Obviously, he forgot to review something...

[spartanV48]

@TJbatmankillaTJ he actually mentioned the analog sticks lol

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@spartanV48 OMFG >.< I never said he didn't mention it, I said he didn't review it and say what it did and how he liked it.

[spartanV48]

@TJbatmankillaTJ Oh sorry, I misunderstood

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@spartanV48 Hah! It'z cool. Just glad you didn't be a A-hole about it like everyone else... It's a tough life having a top rated comment.

[spartanV48]

@TJbatmankillaTJ Ya I know what exactly what you mean.

[Yuxakii]

@TJbatmankillaTJ no he didnt

[Cyrrixchip]

Can you link it? Searched there again with no luck

[TJbatmankillaTJ]

@Cyrrixchip Your best bet is if your order it from the Razer website, and links are impossible on youtube.

[Cyrrixchip]

Are these things on the market now? I cannot find one for sale anywhere!

[killaturo]

@Cyrrixchip best buy

[MrAeroHD]

test

[cxz215]

Why does he complain about the price, its basically about the same price as oem controller. lol I want this and the headset, but I still can't decide if I should go with the astros or razers headset lol.

[xzlabr]

@cxz215 ive got a pair of astro's and i would definetly recommend them. they are great.

[MrGamesTech]

can it be used on ps3 ?
