Why would anyone buy this for $150?!?

Controllers are already expensive at $60

I like razer but this is ugly and ridiculous IMO

 

[Cheeseman Battitude]

Every Razer product I have bought last 18 months, at most.

Razer Naga - the optical sensor only tracked horizontal.
Razer Lycosa - keys would intermittently stop working. First it was just one key, then the nonworking keys spread throughout the keyboard. So the 'A' key would stop working. 10 seconds later, the 'B' key would stop... go on from there until I physically unplug/replug the keyboard.
Razer Onza - Triggers stopped working.

I will never buy another razer product.

I bought a Razer mouse mat. Dust got stuck in it quite badly.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Wow, that is straight up hideous.

Honestly, I'm mostly considering the Elite because of the improved materials; steel construction and all that, seems like it could last longer and be more drop resistant. This doesn't seem to have that, so fuck it.

 

[faint.]

It'll break in a month.

 

[Sorcerer]

I had a an Onza that would red ring my 360 every time I plugged it in.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Looks ugly, and it's Razer, so you can be fairly confident it will break.

 

[moerser]

if this has the same build quality as its predecessors than i wont last long.

 

[FrsDvl]

Plenty of people think razor is the best you can get. It's funny really.

But no thanks I'll get the microsoft one.

 

[xenorevlis]

That... is horrendous. If I ever get an XBO, or even just an XBO pad for my Windows system(s), I'd probably get one from SCUF gaming anyway (https://scufgaming.com/xboxone/)

 

[The Flash]

Lol

 

[Spukc]

see this SHIT razer? that was my mouse after 6 months.
1 year later my right mouse button was broken


i will NEVER buy a razer product again.

oh and for the older folks here. razer products are this generation madcatz peripherals.
avoid it as the plague

 

[RedRum]

Nope. Don't like the triggers on the bottom like that. However, if that it grip on the sides then I can get with that. I'll just go with the elite though.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

After the build quality of the Onza I won't touch another razer product. The elite blows this out the water.

 

[constantstatic]

That... is horrendous. If I ever get an XBO, or even just an XBO pad for my Windows system(s), I'd probably get one from SCUF gaming anyway (https://scufgaming.com/xboxone/)

Build quality is not the best my scuf A button paddle stopped working after a month on AW. They also take a long time to build/repair controlers and they only have a 90 day warranty.

If I was interested in a controller with paddles on the back I would probably go with the elite and I already own a scuf.

 

[Chris1]

Ugly. Not that I would ever spend $150 on a controller but if I was going to, I'd buy the official MS one. Looks so much better and the build quality is probably higher too.

 

[The Lamonster]

Soo fucking ugly.

lol this was going to be my comment exactly.

I love my Naga but this is gross.

 

[Justinh]

I actually loved my Onza.

That is...until it broke. Still need to try and fix it.

Those middle shoulder button look annoying as snot to use.
That Dpad looks like crap, too.
The only thing that I like from looking at the page is the "hyper responsive buttons" which I'm assuming were like the ones on the onza, where pressing the buttons almost felt like a mouse click.

edit:Something I noticed in the video is that they brag that it's 25 % lighter than other tournament grade controllers.
This is funny to me because one of the things that excites about the Xbone's elite controller is that people have said it feels substantial in the hands and not a light, cheap piece of crap.

[Yeoman]

I haven't tried either of them but the Elite looks a lot better built to me.

 

[impact]

Another hideous ass Razer product lol

 

[Robot Pants]

Razor is the Mad Catz for the new generation

 

[dofry]

The colour and stickers screams a design made by a 15-year old during class.

Why is it so hard for companies to hire some designers that aren't out of touch Fast and the furious fans?

And yeah, the price is insane like the Elite controller.

How it works though is all that matters but the pricepoint...damn

 

[fedexpeon]

Wow...can we change the topic title for not safe to view? I was eating and literally gagging and almost threw up from seeing the picture.

 

[Unstable]

Razer, a true leader in quality control and elegant design.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

It's like the Lamborghini of controllers

I love how you can customize the sticks by putting rubber grips on them

 

[Kayant]

Well at least the hideous green is optional.

 

[VanWinkle]

Elite looks aesthetically way better.

 

[Locust]

Looks to me that its just a slightly altered Sabertooth (which is shite).

Doubt a few metal parts will make it any better.

 

[Radec]

That's some ugly ass controller.

 

[SRTtoZ]

Someone make a fucking elite controller for PS4 please.

 

[ArcLyte]

needs more triggers

 

[lem0n]

Remember how shit the Razer Onza 360 controller was? I do, and I'm not falling for their bullshit again. I'll go with the Elite if I have to. Then again I'm not #1337 enough on CoD or BF to warrant that purchase anyways.

 

[DeaviL]

Sweet jesus, never buy a Razer controller.
Their quality has the impressive range of Worthless to absolute shit.

 

[SoapNickTavish]

Yuck!

Yeah, I think I'll just stick with my Elite controller preorder. Sorry razer.

 

[Cleve]

You know, I like my razer mouse, but I'll be the first to admit their build quality sucks and they're the makers of the only arcade stick to break causing a default loss at Evo.

This thing is ugly, and I would never buy it over the MS elite.

 

[DOWN]

That's the fugliest controller I have ever seen.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

It's uglier
It's wired
It's more expensive

Yeah. Good luck with that.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Actually they already had a controller with rear "paddles" for the 360.

 

[Verder]

why is it so ugly.

 

[Crayon]

I support the budding luxury-controller market. I've been asking for it for years. I don't see why my only option has been to pay less for shittier controllers. Back in the day there was premium controllers and it was good business. Hell, even today there are small markets around all kinds of specialty controllers but the standard gamepad is generally capped to the first party offering.

 

[T-Matt]

I wonder what the market is for people that will choose this over the Microsoft one.

 

[Harmen]

Their snake pattern reallybothers me, one of the worst logos in gaming. But otherwise the design of this controller elicits some weird type of nostalgia feeling in me. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles maybe? Or some other 90's stuff.

Anyways, I don't feel it is that ugly, Razer has done much worse imo. I see no reason why people won't go with the original One controller though.

 

[Fusebox]

Meh, looks great to me.

Disclosure: I love my Razor Orochi BT mouse, never had an issue with it.

 

[Lazulic]

fucking hate that green. hate it on everything.

 

[LUXURY]

Ugly and tacky. Reminds me of those controllers GameStop used to make.

 

[data]

I don't get why everyone is complaining about the green, it's clearly something you can put on it if you want more grip, if you don't like how it looks, you don't have to put it on

 

[kingwingin]

Atleast it adds mic controls.

 

[LQX]

I think it looks OK, especially being that you can actually remove the grips.

 

[PinkCrayon]

Ugly as fuck and it'll last about 10 hours of playtime before it breaks. Stay away.

 

[Hylian7]

Opened a thread about a Razer product and it looks ugly and tacky as all hell. What a surprise.
