Review: BEST GAMING CONTROLLER EVER!!! - I have been using this controller for 3 months now and let me tell you that it is the MOST AMAZING GAMING CONTROLLER EVER!!! It does take some time to get used to it, but seriously, I have used a lot of game controllers on all consoles, and all kinds on PC but nothing can even near close to what this one can do. I can play literally every single game with it, shooters, platforms, strategy, races, you name it and this controller can handle it. It has so many ways you can configure it that can adapt to any play style you have and one of the best parts is that YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO BOTHER TO CONFIGURE IT FOR EACH GAME, Steam already have templates and configurations from both the publishers and the community that defaults per game and let you choose from them if you want a different one, or create your own and share it with the world! There is a nice feature that I find it really handy when comes to third person games like "Resident Evil 6" which let you set the borders of the touch areas to keep scrolling with the mouse so you can turn the camera really easily and keep the touch pad precision for aiming. it also has multi modes for every single input individually that can be trigger by any button you define and let you, for example, use a high sensibility setting for the right touch pad when you are just moving and a low sensibility while aiming on shooters, or quickly switch the whole controller configuration for something more comfortable when transform in games like "Strike Suit Zero" by just holding a button. Not enough buttons to match the keyboard keys? No problem, you can use multi modes to get as many button functionality as you need, even the touch pads can be used as a lot of buttons. Strategy games? No problem, you can use the touch pads to navigate, set the controller buttons to the keyboard keys for quick actions and multi modes when the amount of buttons are not enough. Racing games? No problem, you can use the gyroscope for steering similar to what the Wii controller does while using the pressure triggers as pedals. Are you left handed and would love to have a stick on the right? No problem, you can configure the right touch pad to work and feel like a joystick while the left joystick as buttons and the left touch pad as the track pad for the camera. This thing is so freaking adaptive that I started playing all my games from TV and haven't need to use my keyboard for playing games since, even for strategy games like Age of Empires! You can also play non-Steam games with it, therefore, you will need to add that game to your Steam library (which is really easy) and start the game from it in order to take full advantage of it and have access to all it's amazing configurations. Valve really overdid itself this time and brought us the best controller I have used on my whole life.
Review: Perfect controller - This is the most innovative and exciting controller I have owned. The quality is excellent, the ideas are useful and well chosen, the customization software is great and the fact that it allows a practically endless number of titles previously only playable in the very specific conditions of your PC now to be approached on the couch changes and adds to the experience of those titles. Most interestingly, it is not only a perfect controller, but an excellent input device on its own, and I found myself using it to work on the Unreal Engine Editor, meaning, using it for work on certain tasks and switching them from mouse and keyboard. Lots of devices have targeted that before (for example, the Leap), and none have succeeded. That speaks a lot for this controller. It is necessary to understand what to expect from this controller in order to avoid disappointment: No, it is not a plug-and-play experience. If you are expecting to plug the controller and start playing immediately feeling and upgrade from the xbox controller, then stop, this is not the controller for you. If you are willing to spend a mild amount of time tweaking and changing some options in the customization menu, then you probably are ok. Most of the most popular games already have excellent mapping options prepared by the community and your configuration will only be choosing one and applying it. Well configured, it beats titles with native xbox controller support, and you will have fun. If you want to play games that dont have controller support or that are inimaginable with a controller (for example Civilization) then you are in for a treat and this will be one of your best purchases. Buy right now. Lastly, If you have owned before devices that were intended to be tweaked and personalized to death, and getting into those menus and spending hours making the device work just for you is part of the experience you love and seek, then you will love this controller, and you will appreciate the absurd amount of options there just for you to play with. This is not necessary to use the controller, by the way. You can stay with the community mappings if that's your thing. So, in concussion? This is my new ideal controller, not only for play, but for certain work task that I didn't imagine i would switch to a device like this. I just love it to death. I would recommend it to anyone. It is different to what you are used to, so just try it. But, stay away from it if you: a) dont want to configure anything, just want plug and play, because this is not intended to be, and b) want all your games to play the same with the device, ej, the ease and familiarity that comes with an xbox controller, where you can guess the functionality of all buttons from the go. Here, every one of your games will play different, so you have to kind of relearn to play each game. Think of it like this: It is not the same controller, but a tweaked version for each particular game. I hope this helps to make up your mind. Have fun.

A: Yes. It's compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux.

**Q: Does the comes with the same preorder bonus of Portal 2 or Rocket League?**
A: Did preorder but for some reason Amazon shipped until yesterday 11/15th  and I got Portal2 code, but I already owned that game, I wanted Rocked League :(

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by C***S on March 15, 2017*

*Esta reseña fue escrita el mismo dia de la entrega, contiene primeras impresiones y opiniones preliminares, espero actualizarla en un par de meses con los puntos finales. "El Steam controller no es para todo mundo" por mas cliché que suene esa frase tiene mucha verdad, el mando viene con un par de baterías AA y un extensor de rango bastante practico. lo primero que notas es el peso del control, sin las baterías es notablemente mas liviano que un control de xbox 360. Siendo el primer dia no tengo mucha practica con el control pero si es importante mencionar que lleva tiempo adaptarse, yo tengo muchos años usando mi viejo control de xbox 360 (ya ni la consola tengo) y cambiar al steam controller es cuestión de practica, hoy solo use mass effect 2 y dark souls dos juegos sin soporte oficial pero la comunidad de steam tiene varios perfiles que puedes seleccionar para ahorrarte la configuración (tengo pensado hacer la mía ya les contare como fue). Opinión preliminar: si su control favorito se descompuso y/o quieren probar algo distinto lo recomiendo bastante, si no tienen paciencia para entrar en configuraciones mejor no gasten su dinero. Nota adicional: no se confíen en la fecha de entrega de amazon, a mi me llego dos días antes de lo anunciado, si quieren saber la fecha exacta copien el código de seguimiento del transportista y búsquenlo en su pagina directamente ellos son mucho mas exactos (por obvias razones) *Actualización: después de dos meses de uso puedo decir que estoy muy feliz con la compra, en control es muy responsivo, y lo mejor del caso es que todos los problemas de compatibilidad que puedas tener se pueden ajustar en un par de minutos, una cosa que no te mencionan es que el control también funciona como mouse y teclado afuera de los juegos, eso es muy practico ya que los comandos en ambos casos son muy intuitivos (nota técnica: si bien el control funciona como muse básico por si solo necesita steam corriendo de fondo para el teclado y la función de rueda del mouse). En cuanto a la configuración de control les recomiendo basarse en la mas recomendada de la comunidad y ajustarla a sus necesidades (cosas que rara vez tendrán que hacer) un cambio que recomiendo es la cámara traten de elegir joistic/mouse con tanta sensibilidad como estén augusto, con un poco de practica imita bastante bien la sensibilidad del mouse en los FPS
