Victrix Pro BFG: 4 Months Later - Still Worth it?

Excellent review/follow-up video. You did a great job. Thank you. I'm very interested in the BFG now.

I love the background music. It fits the video well. Good informative video 👊🏿

I watched a handful of videos on this controller and yours is my favorite. I really appreciate your input.

Last time I checked, I’m pretty sure all controllers are made outta plastic 💀 this is an incredible controller.

Thanks for the reviews, however i am somewhat concerned about the dpad, do you know if it uses microswitches or something for the dpad specifically?? fighting games destroy dpads it would suck to drop 200$ on this only for it to be worn out 6 months in..

Use this controller as my daily driver as it works great on Xbox as well with a Brooks adapter. Good for multiplatform and the feel is phenomenal.

Would love a comparison between the 3, Edge, BFG and Wolverine 2. Great vid

Interested in buying it. Great video. Thank you.

I've had mine for 2 weeks and it has become my favorite controller for a multitude of reasons I didn't initially expect when buying this controller; I initially bought it for Guilty Gear Strive. I also bought a mayflash Switch adapter which I have the 2.4ghz dongle attached to at all time. Not only is this DPad the best I've used in fighting games, but also the best DPad for any 2D game. Almost as if fighting games are the last hurdle a DPad must overcome to be truly something special because playing retro titles and Metroidvanias on this feels great even compared to an 8Bitdo controller. The ability to switch stick position is also really nice to emulate a SNES controller layout for those types of games. I really like the octo-gate option, something reviews have briefed over since it doesn't have a place to shine in shooters and fighting games. For games where I feel like I'm not missing out from lack of gyro, rumble and motion controls it is my preferred controller hands down and its largely due to the octo gate and 4 back buttons. Being able to switch visors and beams in Metroid Prime without stopping feels natural and improves the pacing of the game in a slight but noticeable amount. The dome top also reminds me of the Gamecube controller joystick which I enjoy. I highly recommend playing non e-sports/competitive games with this controller and see how you feel with it, its become my go-to controller on all platforms and almost all emulation (the 6 button fightpad also turns it into a faux N64 controller for PC emulation). My main criticism is how behind Victrix is with software and lack of communication on if there will be replacement modules on these. The triggers are too sensitive for my liking and I would like to remap stick clicks and button mappings on some profiles but I can't do anything about it because the software doesn't do anything other than control stick calibration. If they were to make a successor I really hope they add gyro and rumble.

Hi is there any update on when they'll release the modules separately? Their support is pretty much non-existent and I cannot risk it without knowing this. Hoping you know

I know you have had this controller longer than any of us.. I would go to you for tips on the deadzone and aiming settings before anyone else. Do you have a video that has been uploaded for how you set your aiming controls in fps and tps games? what do you recommend as far as the right stick deadzone settings in the victrix app? i am getting this crazy overaim and i have the inner deadzones set to zero but its almost as if when im actually playing a game it ignores all my deadzone settings and goes from 0 to 50 in an instant. im really having this issue in re4 remake and mw2. i would appreciate any tip even if it is just one..

Hello thank you for the review I'm super worried about something with this pad and it's Dpad durability. The classical cross one. How's yours at this moment? Ty!

Should I get the victrix gambit or pro bfg? My main console is the xbox series x so I would have to use an adapter for either the xbox or ps5 depending on which one I go with.

Its because alot of people dont use the rumble feature on controllers. Thus making the battery last a whole lot longer on the victrix.

Thanks for the update I have one as well and enjoy it so far. Although can now only use mine wired, I some how lost the dongle and cant find it. Wonder if it has to be their specific one or if I could try an universal one. I also tried contacting them, but no one messages back. it seems like a decent controller and does the job I need it for just wish I did have to keep a wire attached to it.

Can you please tell me how to use this controller with my steam deck? Do I just plug in the adapter into the usb c?

Iv used elite controllers from the beginning. I dont play console anymore and my only problem with PS controllers is the layout. My problem with elite controllers is the polling rate... I think I might switch to this controller since I can get the standard elite layout with 250 polling rate or whatever it is... Do you have any opinion or experience with poll rate? Can you feel the response time on this controller? The controller for the xbox they made looks hideous haha.

I got the Xbox version Gambit and love it..yeah the build quality isn't the best but as long as your someone who doesn't have destructive kids or animals you should be ok..and given the price ($100) can't ask for top quality build material...all the pros come in to play with the tech vs build..which I'm ok with

I bought it a month and had no problems but I do wish they would make replacement thumbsticks tho because I accidentally dug in one of the sticks and it has a tiny groove right now but it's not minor but I really being using it a lot

I have issue trying to play combat master and the damn thing keeps punching or shooting without me pressing the right trigger any solutions
