Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Gravis Destroyer Tilt Game Pad (PC/USB Mac)
Customer Review: Great controller with one or two small flaws
Summary: 4 Stars
All I can say is wow, just, wow. When I bought this controller at my local store I was looking for something cheap and that would just get me by so I could occasionally play fighting games on my computer. My friend told me to get a Sidewinder Plug&Play USB but I was a bit skeptical of the reviews on this site. I saw that there was one sidewinder left when I got there so I decided to buy it. but my brother also wanted one and I wanted to get a second one for when friends come over etc. as well. The only problem was there was only one sidewinder left but I saw a bunch of gravis Destroyer Tilts near the Sidewinder. I figured I'd tried all the other game pads which either felt too stiff or were waayyy out of my price range, so I decided what the heck and bought it.I now throughoughly enjoy the use fo my Destroyer Tilt and use it more often than my sidewinder. I personally find it has a better response than my Sidewinder when playing fighting games and has a crisper feel to it (not to mention the cool tilt force sensing function!). The only minor qualm I had was the way to stiff D-Pad, my thumb gets tired after overuse of the controller and furthermore, the D-pad's up trigger is way to close to the up-left trigger sensing. Aslo while the tilt rocks, it can be tiring as the arm movements have to be slightly over exaggerated at times. Besides that this controller is great and hope it lasts. Trust me, you WILL NOT be dissapointed especially for it's price (I got it a tad bit lower though). I've also put a list of pros and cons to summarize this controller.
Pros:
Easy Install (Plug & Play)
Responsive
Tilt Function
Cons:
D-pad is murder on the thumb
is USB only
Tilt Function (does that make ANY sense?)
I hope you enjoy this controller as much as I have so far
