I want to start off firstly with saying, if you haven't purchased a dual shock 3 controller for your PS3, I would not purchase the FPS Freek until doing so. The reason being, the size of the nubs on the standard Playstation 3 controller is larger than that of those on the dual shock 3 controllers, so the fit isn't so great on the standard controllers. But if you have an Xbox 360, for once you have the upper hand, because as far as I know, they fit nice and snug, as they're designed to.

Just encase you weren't paying attention to the last paragraph, the FPS and Speek Freek nubs work for both the Xbox 360 and the Playstaion 3, so if you have one or the other there's no difference, they will fit both controllers and if you have both, you can interchange them between controllers without any fuss.

I've had a lot of people ask me what exactly the FPS and Speek Freek controller add-ons even do, well to put it simply, it uses leverage to give you more sensitivity, which almost always equals a better overall gaming experience. I personally can't stand games with low sensitivity and on most of those games I tend to not play very well as a result, but I'm very happy to announce that the FPS Freeks fix this problem and they fix it with great style.

So just encase you haven't put two and two together yet, the FPS Freek controller add-ons are designed for first-person shooter games, and the Speed Freek add-ons are designed for racing games, but neither of them are limited to just those two genres of games, they both can be used for any type of game that's on the market. I've tried using the Speed Freeks with a first-person shooter game, but I must say they were more of a hindrance than a help because the walls of the Speed Freeks are pretty high and get in the way of you trying to move from the analog nub to the d-pad and back again, but the FPS Freeks work with racing games, so no worries.

There really isn't a whole lot to say about them, they are nice solid plastic add-ons and do their job just as intended. Some people were saying they were having trouble installing them onto their controllers, but I had no trouble at all. The only way I could see having an issue is if you were trying to install them on a standard PS3 controller, but other than that, installation is quick and easy.

One last question I was asked was, "If you were going to buy one or the other, which one would you recommend?". My answer to that would be go for the FPS Freeks. The reason being that the FPS Freeks work with all game genres, but the Speed Freeks are difficult to use for, really any shooting game, but I would say to just purchase both because they're cheap enough that even if you don't get a whole lot of use out of them both, your wallet won't notice the difference.

And that just about wraps up this review, but I just wanted to stop and say one last thank you to Anthony for answering all my questions and following through on getting me a set of each to review!

@Hectornono I own both, and both do something the other doesn't, so before sounding like a fucktard why not actually use both?
