Victrix ProCon BFG Wireless Controller for PS5, PS4, PC

Seems good so far, love the modularity, much less than a scuf price wise, only thing ive noticed is as others have said it won't turn the console on which is annoying, I didnt use it for long but when doing fast combination presses with the trigger stops on the back for short-press, seemed like I had to slam my fingers quite hard to get a consistent response, maybe that was just breaking in but, probably hard to get the best of both worlds, theyre not mouse click triggers but at the same time, ive had scuff ones with that and they're no good for games where you're pressing partially like racing games etc so its a trade off, overall I think at the price point its a really good bit of kit, versatile, anyone struggling with accidentally pressing back buttons, you have to hold these slightly differently, press on the sides with your palms to keep it in your hands rather than wrapping your fingers around it and gripping it, ive had no problems with it, takes a little time to get used to using all your fingers but persist as its worth the increase in play performance 😉

This is the best controller I ever had. I play competitive fighting games (Tekken 8) and FPS. This pad it's just perfect for both. Solid build, weights the right amount. The D-pad is extremely responsive, and buttons are just perfect (although may feel a bit small at first (especially if coming from a PS5 controller) I play PS5 and PC and this pad works great on both, wired and via Bluetooth (with the provided dongle). The modular design of the pad allows for customisable layout of buttons, dpad and thumbsticks. Also has 4 back paddles, tournament safety buttons and the hot keys can be configured through software via pc. This is absolutely the ultimate controller and beats hands down the PS5 pad. Also battery life is long...very long. Comes with a neat carry case with the extra bits and screw driver and a very long, quality USB cable (3m).

This is my first ever controller with back paddles and a PS player I'm not 100% sold but bear in mind I have only just started using it so it takes some getting used to. Functionality, 3-5. It has an array of options and all buttons can be bound to whatever you want. I have found 2 draw backs though. 1 the trigger stop for R2 isn't as responsive as other controllers. If like me you want to quick fire with a pistol, forget it. It takes a second to register the clicks. 2nd, again a PS player the left analogue is the wrong way around so doesn't to be switched, which you can easily do. Feel, 4-5. It feels great to hold and for long gaming its like you have picked it up for the first time. Presentation, 5-5. Looks fantastic and comes with a carry case with all the little extras wrapped nicely. Now, a very very big issue with this controller is that it doesn't come with any instructions on how to bind the buttons. It comes with a little slip and a QR code that says scan me for the quick set up guide. The QR code takes you to the shop and you have to do some serious digging to get the instructions. First I tried the customer support option however you need a serial number which this controller DOES NOT HAVE ONE so getting in touch with customer support is 95% impossible.

This seems like a well made and solid controller. However it is unusable on a PC: 1) None of the buttons functions as labelled, ie: you press X and it activates Y 2) The 10 "configurable" buttons can only be assigned to one of the four PS5 functions - so that's a massive waste. 3) There is no configuration control software. 4) The leaflet it comes with has a QR you have to scan to get a "quick start" PDF you have to download - but the text on this is less than the leaflet included - why not just have a proper manual? I have a £45 gaming mouse, I plugged that in install the software and can configure, buttons/controls even the lights without fuss, I spent £160 on a controller which doesn't control anything and cannot be setup. IT'S A NICE LOOKING PAPERWEIGHT.

Controller on it with a good quality material materials. Which make it last.. on the problem this week that is that you need to use to it. Because it’s feels completely different from original PlayStation controller.. overall satisfied.

The ps5 default controller is very comfortable for long gaming, it hurts after an hour or two of playing so I wanted a different controller that the buttons are closer and it’s easier in the hands, I choose this one over the alternative because people said it was comfortable. It is very comfortable in hand, it’s light but nice. I was able to get it to connect to the app via the has cable by switching it to usb mode and then pc mode, I was able to set up two profiles, one for PvP and one for driving and grinding. The hair triggers are decent you click and you shoot in game, I’ve not once accident caught any or the back buttons which is good. For driving games it’s great, I no longer have to reach up and hold the acceleration I just use a back paddle, for PvP it takes a little getting used to but I was still getting good wins with PvP. The instructions are not perfect but I was able to figure it all out. I choose the victrix wireless pro ps5 controller over the edge and the wolverine 2 and I’m happy with my purchase, my main goal was stop hand pain and injury from prolonged gaming sessions and it does that, it’s got better battery life than Sonys controller, the only down side it is can’t turn your ps5 on and you have to use your original ps5 controller to login to your ps5 then hold the ps5 button on the victoria to take over as the main controller. It’s a little annoying but no deal breaker. Now I can grind knowing that my hands won’t hurt me and go numb like they do on the default controller they came with my console. I hope that one day they’ll bring out more modules and replaceable sticks but the warranty should cover any issues.

Earlier this year I migrated my GTA data from my Xbox to the PlayStation so I could play with my family. I was then given a new Xbox for my birthday and found out that I couldn’t get my original data back so had to start the game from scratch on the Xbox. I can still play on the PlayStation but I find the controller uncomfortable and the layout is difficult for me to manage and makes my hands ache. So I bought this controller as it’s for the PlayStation but has the layout of the Xbox controller. It feels great and all the extras are brilliant, however, it doesn’t support remote play and this is how I use both consoles. We tried everything possible to get it to work but it just wouldn’t. We then found out that remote play isn’t supported. Considering the price and the fact that it’s sold as a PlayStation controller, we would expect it to support remote play as the normal controller does. I didn't notice if it worked on the PC as it states it does because I use my Xbox controller for PC games. If you just want this as a customisable PlayStation controller then go for it, but if you want to play remotely, don’t waste your money as you’ll just end up sending it back like I’ve done. It’s a shame as it seemed perfect but when I want to play my original GTA I'm going to have to persevere with the PlayStation controller.

I was hesitant to buy this at first for my ps because the the lack of haptics and vibration systems which I got so used to with the dual sense but it’s not an issue it’s designed so much like an Xbox controller which I’ve used for many years especially with the switching modules the back buttons will definitely take some time to get used to as this is my first pro controller I got extremely sick of stick drift on dual sense and I believe I can get replacement parts for this if it starts drifting so this might actually become my main controller for the life span of the ps5

So I'll start with the best and main feature: The modular face. I can't stress how awesome this thing is for players like me that struggle to find button/dpag/analog setups that work for the way we like to play. For example, I play claw style, so having the 6-button option is a must. Need to go back to play a game where 4-button makes more sense? No problem, just swap the pieces, which is super easy. And those units can be flipped, so for instance, I like the dpad in the top-left most position (by default, that's where the analog stick is, like what you see in the picture), so I simply flipped it. When I'm playing, I also hate having the analog stick in the way, again, no problem, just pops right off (and you get extras). This modular feature is important because if you play enough, eventually buttons and dpads go out. For a long time, I was using the Hori FC4 (original design), which was a great controller and fairly inexpensive, but the one drawback was that it broke down pretty fast. Pro players that use the dualshock will tell you they replace them every several months, at most. Although I haven't seen it yet, I have to imagine that Victrix will sell the face pieces separately, which will eventually not only give players like me the ability to easily and cheaply replace wornout components, but it opens the door for more designs for those pieces in the future. Otherwise, it has a bunch of other premium features. You can go wired, which for many of us is really important, and the wire is nice and sturdy. Same with the case for the controller and all the various pieces to it. It has a built-in feature to program (or turn off) the back-grip buttons, and multiple profile options, so even though there is an app that allows for more input customization (which is also a rad feature), you don't need that to do some basic input customization. It also has built-in trigger stops, which is amazing, and a tournament mode to disable your system buttons and the touchpad. The pad has a nice, heavy weight to it, too. Before I got this thing, it was clear it was designed for tournament play in mind. The question I had was whether the dpad(s) would be any good. I use the old, basic, Nintendo cross-style and so far it's working really well. All of the other features, too, are highly-desirable when in a tournament setting, and they function great. But, they went beyond that to ensure that if you want to use it like a normal, casual controller, you clearly can. So I'll say that at this point it seems the wait was worth it, but I'll end with a caveat: This isn't a casual controller. The price tag should probably tell you that, but I can easily see certain people being disappointed with this thinking it's going to be good for casual use. You really have to be thinking about a competitive setting to see the value you're getting with this pad's features. This controller is comparable in quality to something like the Razer Wolverine v2 but has way better features for competitive play and practice, yet the Wolverine is $70 more. I've used the Victrix for casual gaming already and I can tell you it works great there, too, but unless you're taking advantage of all the features that a non-competitive game *isn't* going to use, then this is probably too expensive. Ultimately, a fantastic controller. EDIT: The Victrix Control Hub now works with the BFG, so that eliminates one criticism I had. Now the only thing left for them to address is replacement parts for the modular pieces. This could be make or break though: I've asked them about this and for now even requesting parts directly is not an option. The clock is ticking on that because when everyone starts to have breakdowns, no one is paying for a brand new BFG when a piece that should be really replaceable can't be replaced. That's going to wreck this thing's reputation.

I have been using Sony DualSense controller with my PC for a while, and I was considering buying DualSense Edge, but I didn't for two reasons: 1- DualSense was will known for stick drift issues and I am not welling to have issues with a controller with that amount to pay (even though the stick can be changed to a new one with the Edge). 2- It has only two extra buttons at the back. Victrix amazed me with the built quality, and the design. Reviewers claim that it is light weight that feels cheap, I didn't feel that at all. It needs some time to get used to it since there are extra buttons, and it feels different in the hand compared to PS DualSense. The four buttons at the back gives you the choice for more customizations. I play Rocket League and it helped me to gain back ranks that I lost before due to extra buttons at the back (faster speed flip for those at the community & and ability to boost and drift at the same time). I totally love it, but I definitely need more time to get used to it perfectly. Drawbacks are: 1- The need for the USB dongle for wireless communication. 2- A bit noisy clicks. 3- Track bad didn't work for me as a mouse. Overall, definitely worth the price I've paid for it.

Customizable, feels alot lighter and cheaper than the dual sense Edge Still a good buy if you like a Xbox style controller

it feels solid, and very good control and reaction times..

I have some issues with this controller, but none of them could take stars off my opinion of this controller. We as humans are all different, as such our hands have variations no single controller can address for everyone. If it were possible to address every issue for everyone, this controller comes closest. If you like Xbox controllers, this is for you. Hate Xbox, but live PlayStation controllers? THIS IS FOR YOU. The left stick and d-pad positions Dan be switched. Hate everyone’s controller because your fighting games need 6 buttons on the right instead of a right stick and 4 buttons? THIS. IS. FOR YOU! You can swap out three right stick and 4 button layout for 6 buttons. Nothing is perfect, but this controller chased perfection and thus captured EXCELLENCE.
