But they were solid for such a cheap pad. They are not nearly as precise as the official ones, or some of the better third-party ones. The sticks did work pretty well in play> In fact, they were more responsive and predictable than I had expected.
It takes real effort to push either of them in. Strangely, considering the relative looseness of the sticks, they are very difficult to depress. Resistance is acceptable but should be tougher the sticks are too easily pushed to their limits. The sticks feel similar to the official ones but the travel is not nearly as smooth. The analog sticks get the normal placement. The black button looks slightly larger than the white one, but it is an optical illusion. Additionally, the close placement allows you to move to the black and white buttons very quickly. This gives the controller a two-rows-of-three feel that is very comfortable. The control layout is fairly standard except for the black and white buttons, which are above and to the right of the main action buttons. In short, it feels much better than you'd think after looking at it. I sort of like the dense feel of the Controller S, but the Xdream feels pretty nice too. The Xdream has a large footprint than the Controller S, but it is much thinner. Despite the striking design it feels natural enough in hand, thanks to comfortable contours at all edges. The general shape of the Xdream is an "X" with the sides a bit filled in. It sort of resembles one of the Pelican pads, but not much else. With the Xbox this is even more important because the official Controller S is hard to match.Īs you will see in the following images, the Xdream looks dramatically different than either of the official Xbox pads. With the exception of items such as the high-end Logitech wireless pad, this is about what most third-party pads should cost you. Though this isn't exactly a budget tag for a third-party controller, the street price makes it a bargain item. I searched around today and could only find the Xdream listed at online shops. The Xdream is the first controller we've reviewed from the company.īear in mind that for now you might have a hard time finding dreamGEAR in retail outlets.

It connects directly to a TV via hardwired composite/RCA cables. Besides the standard Xbox-GCN-PS2 offerings, dreamGEAR sells such goodies as the Plug 'N' Play, a controller with 25 games installed on internal flash memory. The company is a relative newcomer with some interesting gaming products. You've probably never heard of dreamGEAR.
