First off, HUGE thanks for doing this review. I almost went for a Scuff or Battle Beaver, your review made me aware of a product that imo is a better purchase. For everyone still looking for these, go to Walmart. I purchased one for $29 in Levittown PA. They had about 7 left. If you’re a reseller, drop off a cliff, but for everyone else on a budget get yours while they’re still available.
It would be nice if they would also make one with 4 paddles in the future. That way the competition for scuf and similar, more expensive options is even more significant. Maybe this will also lead to third party plug-and-play paddles (that work better than what is already out there... Collective Minds Strike Pack)
This just a money grab for PlayStation. Think about it your not really upgradeding anything. Your right tho ps5 finna come out so don't waste your money
I believe the Dualshock 5 is going to come standard with back paddles. I mean, really it makes sense. I never use my ring finger or pinky for anything other than gripping the controller. Why not have a button for them that comes standard on a controller? There is nothing worse than having to move your thumb off an analog stick to mash one of the face buttons. Plus, Sony is going to try to make the PS5 backwards compatible with PS4 peripherals- including the Dualshock 4. So, for PS5 games that require or prominently utilize the back paddles, if you have a DS4 you can buy the DS4 back paddles instead of having to buy a DS5.
It’s because it would be to distracting like when ur phone notifications goes off and u look down at it so if u accidentally tap it would flash and make u look down
if you are willing to spend more money and want the product now just bur the ps4 strikepack FPS it is only 10 bucks more and is available at Walmart or amazon and the paddles are placed in better spots
psn applepatel I’ve tried the strikepack twice and had issues with both. The first one the cable wouldn’t work, and the second one the buttons on the actual controller didn’t work if I had the strikepack plugged in
I'm loving it! It's perfect for The Last of Us, to switch between your holsters. No more having to stop running to use the D-pad to change them! Plus there was the fact that Target was selling them 5 days before the release date!
Yes. I love movie games, too. I hate good gameplay and having to think about getting better. Stuff like this is a godsend, I have such a backlog of bad gameplay games like Last Of Us to test this out on. *hopes for Knack 3 as a PS5 launch title*
I’m way behind in this one with not playing certain types of games but the DPad function is key more and more it seems. Running and needing to use the dpad at the same time is rough, so I’m looking forward to trying this out.
Very good application of this is for SoulsBorne games. You can put the sprint button to a back paddle. Sprinting with circle makes it hard to turn the camera and sprint at the same time
You should be using the traditional claw grip like souls fans use so you have accessibility to the camera, shoulder buttons and the run button at the same time
@@themarcshark or you could use the traditional claw grip like souls fans use so you have accessibility to the camera, shoulder buttons, and the run button at the same time
@@themarcshark or you could use the traditional claw grip like souls fans use so you have accessibility to the camera, shoulder buttons and the run button at the same time
Very very very useful for high mobility games like the old CODs/ Apex legends/ titanfalls/ overwatch/ idk I’m sure there’s others. I really only use it for competitive shooters. Pre ordered one way back when it was announced. Bought on amazon. Which promptly sold out. But, I use my third fingers on it and rest my middle on the top with my first fingers on triggers. That’s just me. Very comfortable for me. And now I find myself squeezing the back of my controllers on my Xbox when I want to press what would be “x” or “o” or it feels very weird holding a normal controller without it. Got this instead of a scuf purely because of cost. I like it.
@@MyManJFKTV or testing the water to see how they fair with durability and if they are really popular or they might have a buttom add on for ds5 so its upto you if you want to pay extra for the buttons or not as I expect the controller cost to rise with buttons already installed.
I play with my fingers on L1 L2 R1 R2 and this attachement feels so GOOD ! My hands are in a perfect position for this attachement ! + I claw with my fingers on L1 R1 , claw for switch weapons or reload, in Fortnite I put Circle on the left trigger and jump on the right. For Apex and COD this is so good ! I put the Square button on the left back button and jump on the right and its so amazing honestly . Being able to charge my peacekeeper in peace while being able to shoot and open the door and closed it , Amazing . In COD Blackout , I was able to pop my perks and keep my aim ready to shoot somebody , I can run and pop my perks mid fights or just running away its AMAZING ! Get it !
I’ve been using 3rd part dual shock 4 attachments for years as I have tendinitis in my hands and the R3/L3 buttons cause me horrible pain, this device I strictly for accessibility for gamers like me.
I play warzone and Ive never used a scuff controller but I’ve always thought about getting one . If you wanna play competitive . Getting a scuff is kind of a big deal especially competitive warzone . I have a 3.4 KD but I just wanted something to give me a bit more of an advantage when it came to competitive gunfights . I then heard of this attachment so I bought this attachment about a week ago. If you’ve never used a scuff . Let me tell you. It’ll take a while to get used to. It’s all about muscle memory . Gotta just adjust . I use triangle on my left paddle . And on my right paddle I have (jump) so when you jump shotting , you don’t take your thumbs off the joystick . I use triangle on left paddle so I can plate up when I’m in a bad situation but also keep my thumbs ready to shoot and aim . It’s convinient . And I slide cancel / crouch on my joystick . At first it’s going to feel super uncomfortable. I thought it was gonna take me a month to get used to. That’s how bad I felt . I would just forget which paddle was which . When I would be in a competitive gun fight . You just gotta get used to using your fingers . I wanted to remove the attachment at first that’s how bad I felt . It just felt very uncomfortable . It took me about 3 /4 days to get used to it . As far as remembering the paddles . Bunny hopping so much easier now . Jump shotting easier . I like it . I would rate it 7.5/10 . The buttons are good quality . Feels great . The only complaint I have with it . Is that its a bit bulky . That’s the only complaint I have
I’m considering to buy one of these for warzone too but is it possible to just put one button to one paddle only ? Or I have to put two buttons for the two paddles
@@zadebtw Maybe I didn't use the right word because language barrier (I don't speak English well). What I tried to say is that I can touch Elite's paddles with my middle fingers in a more comfortable way than (apparently, because I didn't try this addon yet) this one. I'm always fine, thank you.
So my sprint button doesn't work and I'm fed up taking it apart cleaning the coils putting back together for it to last a week then stop again . Instead of buying a £50 controller can I just buy this now£20 back button and program sprint to it ?
I would have bought this a couple of years back when jetpack call of duty's where a thing. Being able to thrust jump while aiming was huge and you could instantly recognise a player who had a scuf. Now i dont see a real use, i also stopped playing cod because i was addicted to prestiging. Yep, years of (not good) changes and its the prestige one in modern warfare that got me out haha
I have been looking into devices of this nature due to severe arthritis. Pushing down on R3 has become a painful experience. And, I have started ignoring that button in current gaming. Dead Eye for RDR2, sprint or melee in many other games, for example. This would definitely give me a new and less painful option.
Do you become a triggerfinger god when settingen those buttons to R1, therefor being able to double press R1 and basically shooting twice your normal amount of bullets in the same time..
I’ve found that pressing a button and the paddle it’s bound to doesn’t work at all. Pressing the same button before you let go of the paddle means it all counts as one press in my experience. However, pressing a different button while your holding a button seems to cancel the first button pressed in some or all cases, if that makes sense
I've been using this to play Apex and it has greatly improved my game, made diamond for the first time this season. I would highly recommend this attachment.
This why I am here, I got to plat without . But the strafe without using your right joystick make thing harder , and I am sure most people use this kind of things
IRL_steff 100% circle for crouching, and my next main one is left on the dpad for pinging things. I have four paddles so I can do two more but I mainly use those two
DoYouLikeMyComment? Ah yes, I was wondering what I could use it for if I got this attachment, don’t think it would be viable with me as I play claw with my right hand for years now so have no problems crouching and aiming and stuff
nah you don't need that shit cuz xbox controller is already good and plus xbox has elite series controller which you do more customizable things like remapping ur buttons and changing the sticks.
@@ThePerfectionist50 I have not seen anything where it has been confirmed. It's speculation at this point. If you have seen something I have not then will you please put up a link so that I may read it too and be more informed as this is the internet and most people (including myself) do not believe it until I see it myself from the source.
@@ThePerfectionist50 that was not the statement. The statement from you was that it was confirmed they are going to have back buttons on the ps5 controllers.
My Scuf impact broke within about a year and a half. Before I officially had to have it shipped off, the L3 button's run function (as many games use L3 as a means for sprinting) started to more than occasionally cancel my sprint. It was probably an issue with the stick itself, or the board that it uses in side the controller. The repairs cost me around $120 with shipping included. It's worth noting that my controller was a custom controller, which might've been used as an excuse for as to why the repairs cost so much. I was also charged for labor twice; once for when the interior board was replaced and then again for when the shipping invoice came in. $10 of labor costs was applied to the second invoice because they had to apparently change the face plate on the controller, of which was not part of my repair request. I DID ask for them to touch up the paint on the 4 right side buttons....but I'm not sure why I was charged an additional $20 for an entire face plate. I might as well just touched up the paint myself....as it's just a ruby red color. Overall, I can't help but feel like I was being nickle and dimed for a couple of simple repairs....
Question: was there ever an issue where you accidentally hit the OLED screen and had it change the buttons on you or even change to a different set up you have? That would be a concern of mine.
This is really a handy addition to the controller! I have tendinitis from over 30 years of gaming and pressing R3 to sprint has destroyed my thumb in the last 10 years and Iv always yearned for extra triggers or face buttons I can assign different buttons for sprint! This device may in fact really help! Constantly changing the button maps for different games is annoying so this could solve mine and any other tendinitis sufferers stick pushing punishment ! Sweet video! Keep up the good work , have been watching for ages and really like your work! One of the best on YT! Peace
I dunno if you know this but you can remap any buttons by going to PS4 setting accessibility button assignment. It's free or this back button is also great for mimicking any 2 buttons you want. Cost money but is also a better option.
@@oldskoolraveruk sounds to me 2 buttons might not be enough you need 4 back buttons or a 2 back 2 top setup. PS4 back is about $30 has 3 on the fly profiles but limited to 2 back buttons. I like brook with the xbox controller but astro has a good ps4 controller now. Hopefully razor brings there pro lineup to the US.
Why are these buttons not, simply, two _new_ buttons (L4/R4)? So that I can add _additional_ functionality to the controller, say, via the custom button mapping menus that most of my games have, where so many inputs lie dormant/unnassigned... "Just" adding alternative ways to press an already existing button does little to gain any advantage, for me anyways (as L3/R3 already hold my most advantageous re-assignments).
Lol i'd rather not have them. i'd end up pressing them by mistake. Same with paddles on scuff controllers. I use claw grip instead, which is just as good as using a scuff controller.
@@MrSteamedchicken for example titanfall 2 it's hard to aim and jumping or slideing at the same time this maybe not be useful for everyone but I think it's worth it in my opinion (sorry for my bad English)
wesam245 nah he said extra two buttons.... not mapping two existing buttons to the back buttons. Like we have reload, jump, switch weapon.... what else does he want as a button
Matt me too man, but I think the won’t because most people don’t play like that. Many are just casual players or will use the PS5 for a streaming hub. I do however think they can put that in a Pro version.
This review was excellent. Informative with different examples of potential use for different games & straight to the point. Thank you. Just ordered one from BestBuy, they have them back in stock.
I just got one and it's pretty cool. Idk for some reason I thought I was gonna attach it and be godly. I tried to slide jump and aim and it felt like my brain broke for a sec
This video was perfect for me I was on the fence weather to get a SCUF Controller but then someone told me about the DS4 Back attachment and you've sold me on it.
I had no idea this existed. I was looking into to getting a controller with flippers on the back and your video came up. Thank you! Just saved me some money.
for me i would replace it with X and square, because i use those 2 buttons for shifting up (X) and down (square) in gran turismo sport. but that's only if i buy it, since I'll buy a racing wheel instead.
@@alfieeu791 Actually D1 is quite hopping on the NA servers. Lots of D2 players are coming back to D1 too. The Crucible is still hit or miss if you are trying for a mode outside of the weekly match.
These are on sale for $20 at a lot of stores currently. Just ordered one from my local target Also, it’s totally worth it. Besides how convenient it is for Black Ops and making Cyberpunk 2077 easier by eliminating the use of the D pad while in battle, I am a huge pinball guy and have all the digital tables, and this thing immediately got me a new all time high score on The Pinball Arcade
I have been outta the FPS games for almost 8 years and recently got back into COD with war zone and then Cold War and the amount of things that have changed in 8 years is insane and mostly it’s with the controllers. I starter looking at scufs and was even about to place an order for one when I figured I should read some reviews which is what led me to find this back button attachment. Seeing as I won’t be upgrading to a ps5 for awhile, it made way more sense to spend 20 bucks on this(caught it as I’m typing this for 10 bucks off) then 200 on a scuf controller.
8:15 Ummm what I leave my controller on all the time Is my controller on crack or am I trippin Edit: had one bar, lasted me about 2 and a half hours sooo idk
Ima test it out today I think leaving it on without being touched doesn’t drain the battery as much as using it for hours I do game a lot though Maybe I have a 3rd party controller that’s better Maybe whenever I threw my controller across the room it somehow became a god We’ll see I keep track of how long I play and how long I leave it on sitting until it dies
Well .. thank you very much for letting me know about this .. I actually saw it in a store once but did not take the time to find out what it was. As someone who does not see the sun or touch grass soften I will take advantage of this tool immediately. :)
I still love scuf though especially because of the customization. This is however great for people that are not super competitive, and it is great for people with less money.
Lol I brought mine off amazon but it costed me an extra $20, they still havnt arrived but I'm counting down the days, also they are available in best buy.
Makes COD much better. Having used an elite on the Xbox it is very handy having a jump and drop button on the back to use whilst in a gunfight which you simply cannot do without. Essential if you ask me
As someone who has used a Scuf for years, I've used this product for about a week now and played competitively with it. All I can say is that I actually prefer this over a scuf. Were this attachment fits on the controller makes me feel like I have a way tighter grip on the controller compared to a scuf. Also you can't not talk about the insane price difference. About a year ago I had to send in my Scuf to get repaired and it cost $56. With this attachment, if it broke, you could just replace it for a much cheaper price. I definitely recommend this Back Button attachment over the Scuf controllers.
As someone with nerve damage, I struggle pressing L1 and L2. I am pumped for this accessory

Why did this come out so late in the ps4’s life cycle. The ps5 literally comes out this year🤦♂️
I was thinking of the same thing, i hope this fits on the ps5 controller
I’m sure the ps5 controller would have it. This is just a last ditch effort to evolve the ps4 before ps5.
This just a money grab for PlayStation. Think about it your not really upgradeding anything. Your right tho ps5 finna come out so don't waste your money
This attachment will probably be forward compatible with the ps5 controller
I believe the Dualshock 5 is going to come standard with back paddles. I mean, really it makes sense. I never use my ring finger or pinky for anything other than gripping the controller. Why not have a button for them that comes standard on a controller? There is nothing worse than having to move your thumb off an analog stick to mash one of the face buttons.
Plus, Sony is going to try to make the PS5 backwards compatible with PS4 peripherals- including the Dualshock 4. So, for PS5 games that require or prominently utilize the back paddles, if you have a DS4 you can buy the DS4 back paddles instead of having to buy a DS5.
5:03 That's what I immediately thought. I wonder why they didn't do that.
Shadow Heart probably because people might accidentally hit it if their fingers slip
@@jared5803 just put a little lock switch so you cant accidentally switch it.
dusty67 chevy Thas true
It’s because it would be to distracting like when ur phone notifications goes off and u look down at it so if u accidentally tap it would flash and make u look down

Been out of stock everywhere since it came out, people bought all of them just to resell
bruh
if you are willing to spend more money and want the product now just bur the ps4 strikepack FPS it is only 10 bucks more and is available at Walmart or amazon and the paddles are placed in better spots
psn applepatel I’ve tried the strikepack twice and had issues with both. The first one the cable wouldn’t work, and the second one the buttons on the actual controller didn’t work if I had the strikepack plugged in
Desimz is this a issue that most people have
psn applepatel I believe they fixed the cable issue with a “2.0” model, but not sure about the buttons
I'm loving it! It's perfect for The Last of Us, to switch between your holsters. No more having to stop running to use the D-pad to change them! Plus there was the fact that Target was selling them 5 days before the release date!
Yes. I love movie games, too. I hate good gameplay and having to think about getting better. Stuff like this is a godsend, I have such a backlog of bad gameplay games like Last Of Us to test this out on. *hopes for Knack 3 as a PS5 launch title*

So what if use this on a scuff lmao
@@honkyjesuseternal gay
I’m way behind in this one with not playing certain types of games but the DPad function is key more and more it seems. Running and needing to use the dpad at the same time is rough, so I’m looking forward to trying this out.
Very good application of this is for SoulsBorne games. You can put the sprint button to a back paddle. Sprinting with circle makes it hard to turn the camera and sprint at the same time
You should be using the traditional claw grip like souls fans use so you have accessibility to the camera, shoulder buttons and the run button at the same time

Very very very useful for high mobility games like the old CODs/ Apex legends/ titanfalls/ overwatch/ idk I’m sure there’s others. I really only use it for competitive shooters. Pre ordered one way back when it was announced. Bought on amazon. Which promptly sold out. But, I use my third fingers on it and rest my middle on the top with my first fingers on triggers. That’s just me. Very comfortable for me. And now I find myself squeezing the back of my controllers on my Xbox when I want to press what would be “x” or “o” or it feels very weird holding a normal controller without it. Got this instead of a scuf purely because of cost. I like it.
Back buttons should be the new standard for console controller it makes playing games so much more comfortable
I think so too
Gladly the dualshock 5 will have back buttons built in.
I think it will be when the next gen hits. This is probably to get people used to a DualShock 5’s back buttons before they come.
@@MyManJFKTV or testing the water to see how they fair with durability and if they are really popular or they might have a buttom add on for ds5 so its upto you if you want to pay extra for the buttons or not as I expect the controller cost to rise with buttons already installed.

@Joel Robert Justiawan it’s a new video
@@AReed-bd5gf yeah.
You love the Xbox Series 2 controllers, too?
I play warzone and Ive never used a scuff controller but I’ve always thought about getting one . If you wanna play competitive . Getting a scuff is kind of a big deal especially competitive warzone . I have a 3.4 KD but I just wanted something to give me a bit more of an advantage when it came to competitive gunfights . I then heard of this attachment so I bought this attachment about a week ago. If you’ve never used a scuff . Let me tell you. It’ll take a while to get used to. It’s all about muscle memory . Gotta just adjust . I use triangle on my left paddle . And on my right paddle I have (jump) so when you jump shotting , you don’t take your thumbs off the joystick . I use triangle on left paddle so I can plate up when I’m in a bad situation but also keep my thumbs ready to shoot and aim . It’s convinient . And I slide cancel / crouch on my joystick . At first it’s going to feel super uncomfortable. I thought it was gonna take me a month to get used to. That’s how bad I felt . I would just forget which paddle was which . When I would be in a competitive gun fight . You just gotta get used to using your fingers . I wanted to remove the attachment at first that’s how bad I felt . It just felt very uncomfortable . It took me about 3 /4 days to get used to it . As far as remembering the paddles . Bunny hopping so much easier now . Jump shotting easier . I like it . I would rate it 7.5/10 . The buttons are good quality . Feels great . The only complaint I have with it . Is that its a bit bulky . That’s the only complaint I have
I’m considering to buy one of these for warzone too but is it possible to just put one button to one paddle only ? Or I have to put two buttons for the two paddles
Personally I would prefer if the paddles were a bit longer, like the Xbox's Elite Controller, but for 30 € it's nice.
Quagmirekoa the ps4 back buttons are literally longer than the Xbox elite controller are you okay?
You can buy extensions for just a couple dollars.
@@HSVKing Didn't know that. Thanks :D
@@zadebtw Maybe I didn't use the right word because language barrier (I don't speak English well). What I tried to say is that I can touch Elite's paddles with my middle fingers in a more comfortable way than (apparently, because I didn't try this addon yet) this one.
I'm always fine, thank you.
Quagmirekoa I prefer the fps strike pack
its sold out everywhere, some pumped up the price by fourfold
Check Playstations website
Has anyone found it good?
So my sprint button doesn't work and I'm fed up taking it apart cleaning the coils putting back together for it to last a week then stop again . Instead of buying a £50 controller can I just buy this now£20 back button and program sprint to it ?
Yes, I mainly use mine to replace having to press the thumbsticks for L3+R3.
I would have bought this a couple of years back when jetpack call of duty's where a thing. Being able to thrust jump while aiming was huge and you could instantly recognise a player who had a scuf.
Now i dont see a real use, i also stopped playing cod because i was addicted to prestiging. Yep, years of (not good) changes and its the prestige one in modern warfare that got me out haha
Sony is genius, much prefer this to a $200 elite or scuff. 2 paddles is enough
bind to square so you dont take your hand off the left stick
takes it off anyway to click circle
Ryan is so on point with the size difference: RUclips video vs reality.
Ask my fiance.
I would want this for Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker for the torture scene where you have to rapid press 🔺
Chase Westwood I would want it so that I can dropshot and crouch spam in rainbow six siege
I would be beast in black ops 4

I have been looking into devices of this nature due to severe arthritis.
Pushing down on R3 has become a painful experience.
And, I have started ignoring that button in current gaming. Dead Eye for RDR2, sprint or melee in many other games, for example.
This would definitely give me a new and less painful option.
I dont have a ps4, or this attachment, but I love it.
Well you can use a ps4 controller on pc so you could just buy it with a ds4, no need for ps4

@@thesorrow96 Cheers, Sorrow.
The Sorrow who hurt you?😴
Which is better xbox or ps4 and tell me why bc I feel like switching?
Do you become a triggerfinger god when settingen those buttons to R1, therefor being able to double press R1 and basically shooting twice your normal amount of bullets in the same time..
Pim ter Maat good point
goeie Pim
I’ve found that pressing a button and the paddle it’s bound to doesn’t work at all. Pressing the same button before you let go of the paddle means it all counts as one press in my experience. However, pressing a different button while your holding a button seems to cancel the first button pressed in some or all cases, if that makes sense
What is R1?
You use your PS4 for something other than Bloodborne? Not sure how that works.
I want one but can't find it anywhere! What a shame after they just released it, don't know why no one has it.
Scalpers are the ones to thank!
I've been using this to play Apex and it has greatly improved my game, made diamond for the first time this season. I would highly recommend this attachment.
That’s what I’m looking to buy it for. Can’t afford a scuf.
@@Tk421Clone scuff is stupid. The controllers only last 2 or 3 months
This why I am here, I got to plat without . But the strafe without using your right joystick make thing harder , and I am sure most people use this kind of things
Yeah that’s what I’ve been hearing recently.
I own a scuf and I can admit one of the biggest parts of having a scuf is the back paddles, especially on a game like siege.
DoYouLikeMyComment? I would only get one for siege lol
Hayden Judy that’s what I did xD
I played siege for a bit and now only play it from time to time, what would be good buttons to have the paddles for
IRL_steff 100% circle for crouching, and my next main one is left on the dpad for pinging things. I have four paddles so I can do two more but I mainly use those two
DoYouLikeMyComment? Ah yes, I was wondering what I could use it for if I got this attachment, don’t think it would be viable with me as I play claw with my right hand for years now so have no problems crouching and aiming and stuff
As a Xbox player I hope they make one of these , actually looks quite good
nah you don't need that shit cuz xbox controller is already good and plus xbox has elite series controller which you do more customizable things like remapping ur buttons and changing the sticks.

@@d.zolboo591zombus2 lol i know thats why i bought this
My Scuf impact broke within about a year and a half. Before I officially had to have it shipped off, the L3 button's run function (as many games use L3 as a means for sprinting) started to more than occasionally cancel my sprint. It was probably an issue with the stick itself, or the board that it uses in side the controller. The repairs cost me around $120 with shipping included. It's worth noting that my controller was a custom controller, which might've been used as an excuse for as to why the repairs cost so much. I was also charged for labor twice; once for when the interior board was replaced and then again for when the shipping invoice came in. $10 of labor costs was applied to the second invoice because they had to apparently change the face plate on the controller, of which was not part of my repair request. I DID ask for them to touch up the paint on the 4 right side buttons....but I'm not sure why I was charged an additional $20 for an entire face plate. I might as well just touched up the paint myself....as it's just a ruby red color. Overall, I can't help but feel like I was being nickle and dimed for a couple of simple repairs....
Question: was there ever an issue where you accidentally hit the OLED screen and had it change the buttons on you or even change to a different set up you have? That would be a concern of mine.
Nope, it actually needs to pressed in hard to tweak the controls. So unless you got very strong fingers, no problem
Itd probably have a lock for that to avoid happening
Alter Ego good good, I have weak fingers
Good question and the answer I wanted as well.
If you manage this. You should never play games again
2:39 Controller ASMR
This is really a handy addition to the controller! I have tendinitis from over 30 years of gaming and pressing R3 to sprint has destroyed my thumb in the last 10 years and Iv always yearned for extra triggers or face buttons I can assign different buttons for sprint! This device may in fact really help! Constantly changing the button maps for different games is annoying so this could solve mine and any other tendinitis sufferers stick pushing punishment !
Sweet video! Keep up the good work , have been watching for ages and really like your work! One of the best on YT!
Peace
I dunno if you know this but you can remap any buttons by going to PS4 setting accessibility button assignment. It's free or this back button is also great for mimicking any 2 buttons you want. Cost money but is also a better option.
NatsumeMizu am always changing my buttons but it's annoying having to change for each game. This would solve that annoyance
@@oldskoolraveruk sounds to me 2 buttons might not be enough you need 4 back buttons or a 2 back 2 top setup.
PS4 back is about $30 has 3 on the fly profiles but limited to 2 back buttons.
I like brook with the xbox controller but astro has a good ps4 controller now. Hopefully razor brings there pro lineup to the US.
Why are these buttons not, simply, two _new_ buttons (L4/R4)? So that I can add _additional_ functionality to the controller, say, via the custom button mapping menus that most of my games have, where so many inputs lie dormant/unnassigned... "Just" adding alternative ways to press an already existing button does little to gain any advantage, for me anyways (as L3/R3 already hold my most advantageous re-assignments).
Lol i'd rather not have them. i'd end up pressing them by mistake. Same with paddles on scuff controllers. I use claw grip instead, which is just as good as using a scuff controller.
I agree, hope this comes in the near future
What exactly do we need an extra two buttons for in gaming?
@@MrSteamedchicken for example titanfall 2 it's hard to aim and jumping or slideing at the same time this maybe not be useful for everyone but I think it's worth it in my opinion
(sorry for my bad English)
wesam245 nah he said extra two buttons.... not mapping two existing buttons to the back buttons. Like we have reload, jump, switch weapon.... what else does he want as a button
I wish Sony would push the boundaries a little and ship the Dualshock5 with standard back buttons
Matt me too man, but I think the won’t because most people don’t play like that. Many are just casual players or will use the PS5 for a streaming hub. I do however think they can put that in a Pro version.
My hope is that we get something like this straight out the box with PS5...some part of me thinks that we will.
Why couldn't this come out 2 years ago when I was addicted to CoD and Fortnite this would have been perfect. Now all I play are single player games.

Helpful in borderlands when looting. In cod, you can crouch while aiming/shooting.
I have been outta the FPS games for almost 8 years and recently got back into COD with war zone and then Cold War and the amount of things that have changed in 8 years is insane and mostly it’s with the controllers. I starter looking at scufs and was even about to place an order for one when I figured I should read some reviews which is what led me to find this back button attachment. Seeing as I won’t be upgrading to a ps5 for awhile, it made way more sense to spend 20 bucks on this(caught it as I’m typing this for 10 bucks off) then 200 on a scuf controller.
Being able to crouch and jump without taking your thumb off of aiming is pretty op on games like COD Destiny and Overwatch
Totally, OP in Overwatch.
anyone can do it without a scuff controller or accessory.
And titan fall if ppl play that
I'll be picking one up for Destiny.

That’s what people use on ESO for their rotation ...

Those examples sold me on this.
As someone who has used a Scuf for years, I've used this product for about a week now and played competitively with it. All I can say is that I actually prefer this over a scuf. Were this attachment fits on the controller makes me feel like I have a way tighter grip on the controller compared to a scuf. Also you can't not talk about the insane price difference. About a year ago I had to send in my Scuf to get repaired and it cost $56. With this attachment, if it broke, you could just replace it for a much cheaper price. I definitely recommend this Back Button attachment over the Scuf controllers.
