FPS Freeks are a about new ambassador add-on created by KontrolFreek Gaming Accessories which are declared to advance your accurateness if arena aboriginal being shooters. The FPS Freek (pictured on the right) is artlessly an analog extender that you breeze assimilate anniversary of your absolute analog nubs of the controller. The aftereffect is a continued analog stick which according to the KontrolFreek website "provides 40% added beeline ambit from abounding stop to stop." As anyone who plays shooters semi-competitively, I was agnostic these would do anything. Selling at alone $9.99, I absitively to buy a brace and accord them a try.

Once ordered, it alone took about a anniversary afore my Freeks arrived. I activated them out on two games: Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4. Apparently, some Major League Gaming pro players use these in Halo tournaments so I absitively to try it out on Halo 3 first.

The best analog sticks yield some accepting acclimated to as they finer double the breadth of the analog. This increases the ambit that it takes for your deride to biking from analog to any buttons on the ambassador so if you use B to melee, your melees may become slower at first. The bigger attention ascendancy may aswell in fact abatement your accurateness until you are acclimated to the difference. After about bisected an hour, however, I began to see a noticable advance in my accurateness application all-embracing weapons. While afore I begin it difficult to accomplish headshots while sniping, with the Freeks I would get headshots abundant added generally and even cull off some amazing snipes that larboard even myself awe-stricken. I would say that my all-embracing accurateness with the assassin burglarize and action burglarize bigger by about fiften to twenty percent. You apparently will not see any account to application aerosol weapons like the advance rifle, though.

Next, I activated it in Call of Duty 4. Being already acclimatized to the best analogs now, I could see improvements in my bold appropriate away. Application the M14 and M16 beyond the map with atom accurateness and killing fast-moving that I would generally overshoot before. The Freeks helped even added in CoD4 than they did in Halo. I anticipate that is because Call of Duty 4 seems to accept added medium-ranged action as a lot of accoutrements accept a acceptable effective-distance while in Halo it is mostly the action rifle.

So the FPS Freeks absolutely do plan but how do they work? It is harder to explain but they plan because there is a greater ambit of motion with a best stick. If you accept a abbreviate analog and you move the top slightly, the basal moves about in a 2:1 arrangement with the top. That is, the basal moves faster than the top does back it has beneath ambit to travel. Anticipate of it like a ambit on a chase track. If you yield the central of the curve, you accept beneath ambit to biking and will appear about the about-face faster than anyone on the outside. If the analog is longer, however, the basal of the stick moves in a lower arrangement to the top. So affective your deride hardly with a best analog moves the basal of the analog (which is what connects to the ambassador to construe the movement assimilate the screen) in a 1:1 range. This gives you greater ascendancy over your movements and appropriately increases your attention and accuracy.

How abundant bigger can you apprehend to become? The acknowledgment is that it is apparently altered for anniversary being depending on their play style. I would appraisal that on boilerplate I had three to four added kills per bold with the Freeks than if I did without. They are not something that will accomplish you invicible nor will they accomplish a bad amateur into a acceptable player. They are artlessly an add-on that will enhance your accepted abilities by acceptance you added ascendancy to angle your skills. At a amount point of $9.99, I would acclaim them to anybody that plays FPS amateur online. They may attending a little funny on your controller, but they will advice you.
