Po!nt game controller, TreeTech´s unique and creative game controller

I (Robin Ek, The Gaming Ground) have tried, seen and read about many different kinds of game controllers since the early 90s. Even so, I haven´t seen a controller quite like TreeTech´s wireless Po!nt Game Controller. It looks really cool for sure, but is it any good?

Liking very much the idea of modular aspect and inter-changeable face plates ( think this could be the best way/option for future application with the Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft control pads - the XBox One Elite is already doing this in a way ), but do worry TreeTech's control pads isn't durable enough.

Good points, and I´m somewhat afraid that the controller will break rather easily :S

There are a breed of gamers who are serious controller twisters. I would highly advise they steer very clear of this particular controller.
Last generation I was a controller slammer, but I have since graduated to couch slapping. So a controller like this may work for me, but I'm quite fond of my DS4s. :D

TGG_overlord3707d ago

I actually thought about that, for example. I highly doubt that the Po!nt controllers would survive all that long if the player in question plays Halo or COD (Xbox players are well known for going bananas while playing online).

That had me f###ing laughing, my coworkers were like wtf after i read your post in the office.

TGG_overlord3707d ago

That´s another way to see it xD Now you´re playing with boobs! :P

Simon_the_sorcerer3707d ago

Ehrm...Is it just me or does the Po!nt controllers look like two hockey pucks that have been attached to each other? xD

TGG_overlord3707d ago

To be fair, you´re not the first person that has pointed that out :P

MurDocINC3707d ago

Looks like boobs to me, yea horny mind.

DVAcme3707d ago

My main point of concern with this controller is how comfortable it is in your hands, cause that ball shape looks rather uncomfortable and possibly slippery. IMHO, you just can't beat the double grip design.

TGG_overlord3707d ago

That would be my nr 1 concern as well, I´m also somewhat worried that the controller will break down in just a couple of weeks...

It looks like a big ridiculous bow tie

TGG_overlord3707d ago

So, we got pucks, boobs and now a bow tie so far xD

Relientk773707d ago

What an Xbox founder thinks of the new Xbox CEO | Seamus Blackley interview

Gamesbeat caught up with Blackley to extract some wisdom about Microsoft’s journey in games, what he thinks Sharma should do, and where gaming can go next. Part of his message is hopeful, but Blackley sees a lot of peril on the road that Microsoft is following. And it makes him worry about the future of gaming.

"I expect that the new CEO, Asha Sharma, her job is going to be as a palliative care doctor who slides Xbox gently into the night."

LOL

Anyway, let's wait and see maybe Mia Khalifa will surprise us.

I’m on the fence about her. I’ll give her chance, but if she is there to finish things off. Well what can you do.

After seeing the article of the possible sunsetting of Xbox as said by Seamus Blackley I believe, I went onto X because of a post I saw. It was a gif of Vegeta powering up, the poster commented as Vegeta yelling “Don’t take my fiercest competitor away from me.” Standing there in his blue Sayian/Freiza corps outfit. So it got me to thinking, so let me ask a question to N4G.

If Vegeta is PlayStation, who would Xbox and Nintendo be in the Dragon Ball universe?

Who would be Master Roshi?

I have my own opinion of course, I just want to see what others think.
