What's up guys, Lew here, back with another video
and today I've got something gaming related for you to look at
you may recognize this package here, of course this is a Scuf controller
and if you've been following my channel for a while
you know that I previously featured
the new Scuf controller for the Xbox One
well of course, it only makes sense
to share the new controllers for the Playstation 4 as well.
So I've got 2 of them here , this is one package,the other one's over here
We're gonna be looking at both of them
And I'll be explaining
a little bit more about what a Scuf controller is
and we can also just look at how beautiful
these unusual
PlayStation 4 controllers look
on the box you can see elite engineering, powerful precision
full hand control and of course the most important aspect victory
so I opted for a couple of cool different color combinations are quite a
bit different from my choices for the xbox one controllers which were done but
in a red kind of scheme one of them was camo red and the other one was plain red
Dayum there is the first of the two controllers
very slick as i'm sure you can tell this is the yellow and black
bumblebee style look and you have elevated thumbsticks as well so the
first thing i'll touch on is the height of the thumbsticks which is completely
configurable by you short medium or long depending on what you like better and
what suits your style of gameplay
you can also choose to have a concaved stick or a domed stick again that comes
down to personal preference you can see here we have the blacked-out buttons
just for a slicker look as I flip it over you'll see another aspect of what
makes a scuf controller special
first you have these specialized grips
normally this would be a relatively slick surface and then of course your
scuf buttons so the scuf buttons located on the back are really what's
going to give you your advantage in the game that you're playing
they are remaps of
the front-facing button so your triangle x etcetera
you won't have to take your hand off of the right thumbstick in order to access
those buttons instead your middle finger lines up perfectly well and just a
little bump a little tap and regardless of which button it is that you've
remapped all of a sudden boom you can hit that same thing goes for your left
hand which also falls onto the other buttons so you can keep your thumbs
locked down on the thumb sticks so you don't have to give up any kind of
movement
you can always be looking around moving around and still accessing those face
buttons so obviously it's also about the appearance since this is your custom
controller
you're going to want to suit it out exactly how you want in this particular
case it's yellow and black
I like it you know lots of contrast there
and one more thing that I almost forgot is these ones are programmable via a
magnetic key so you can actually remap these buttons without the need to do any
kind of extreme work
open it up or anything like that ok so next up we have a different look and a
slightly different layout
this is the black and green digital camo
I'm a big fan of these camo appearance. I have the black and red
camo on the xbox one controller
you'll notice that on this controller the d-pad looks a little different than
usual
that's because you have this scuf disk on there instead which should improve
your precision a little bit and help you to slide around from the different
locations on the d-pad
of course you have the scuf thumbsticks in this case as well these are concave
like on the other controller and the blacked-out buttons over on the side
here the blacked-out face buttons on the back once again you have the scuff grips
followed by once again the scuff for PS buttons which will be remapped from the
front as i said before so i'll put the two of them together here so you can
really check them both out in that frame so the black and yellow version with the
standard d-pad and the blacked-out face buttons and then the digital camo on
the right hand side
here which has this cool disc install this is removable i'm told so you can
take that off if you want to go back
revert back to the standard d-pad anyways
very cool as I said the whole point here is to customize it to suit you some of
these choices are subjective whether or not you like these thumb sticks or
different thumbsticks but that's the beauty of scuf my question is why
aren't all controllers mapped like this stock out of the box I mean it seems to
make sense
you don't have to remove your thumbs you still have access to those buttons you
can still pull the triggers and the rest of your hand generally isn't doing very
much in the game it's just gripping around the edge so the idea of accessing
these buttons in a different way
it's kind of interesting to me and always has been since I first heard
about stuff so anyways
there you have it two fresh scuf controllers for the playstation 4 very
pretty to look at and functional as well you don't always get that you know
sometimes its beauty sometimes its brains in this case it's both
big thanks to scuf for sending these out to me if you guys want to find out
