thanks for the impressions!
...so they look a bit high arc in the pictures and look as if they could be awkward to use....but you haven't had this issue though huh?
...also...PLEASE post some pics!

I have to check my amazon account tomorrow to see if they even shipped them. I want them already. I only have problems with racing games. I will play so much burnout and motorstorm when I get them.

depends on the game...but with me, yeah I always feel like they're JUST about to slip off. Now I've grown to live with it, especially if the implementation is good IE DiRT, GRID...not complete shit like GTAIV
I'm still curious about these though...

OK. You guys are so demanding!
I don't have video ability at the moment. Here is one pic without any actual pressure on the trigger, and one with it fully depressed. The extra schmutz hanging off the bottom is hot glue that I'm going to trim off.

I had no problem with GTA4 or anything, but holding down for a period of time or trying to get different levels of sensitivity are a problem.

I'm curious about this. I don't know if I would really want to glue them on my controller since I might switch down the road.

I played with them for a bit and one of them popped off. I was intentionally pushing fairly hard to simulate a session where I was getting a bit frantic. The didn't feel flimsy. I was already going to glue them anyway since I wanted a really solid, reliable connection.
I'd say most people probably shouldn't bother gluing them unless they find them coming off. They weren't shifting around or anything before the one finally popped off.

Well, it's all about what glue you might choose. I'm sticking with something that I can peel off, I'm not using superglue or two-part epoxy, or anything like that.

I got mine in the mail today. They stopped my original order for some reason and I just reordered yesterday, I am surprised they came today.
These things are amazing. I thought they wouuld make the L2/R2 triggers better, but not this much better. They are locked on tight and feel great to play with. The controller armor itself is stupid. It makes pressing Start/Select/Home harder than normal, but maybe that is the purpose.

Just got mine yesterday and I love the triggers. It actually makes the whole controller easier to hold for me. I played the Burnout Paradise demo, Gripshift, and Pixeljunk Racers because racing games were where I was having the most problems slipping off the old buttons, and they all played great. It felt slightly more difficult to me to tell how much of the analog range I was using, but it'll probably just take a bit of time to get used to.
I can only imagine they'd be great for stuff like Resistance, too, I didn't try that yet.
I have no idea why I'd want to use the metal armor--it's a bummer that the whole package sets you back $10 and comes with something that seems so practically useless...but I don't regret the purchase at all and may very well snatch up a second set just in case these become hard to get later on.
