Scuf's Official PlayStation Omega Controller: First Look & Review

Summary

Scuf has released their first official PlayStation controller, the Omega, which is also compatible with PC. The creator, who has a decade-long relationship with Scuf, was also invited to be in their new commercials for the controller, a personal achievement he's proud of given his humble beginnings filming with a camcorder. The Omega controller features a transparent faceplate, customizable buttons via a phone app, discreet rear grips, and innovative side buttons that can be personalized or disabled. A key feature is the interchangeable joystick placement, allowing users to switch between a standard layout and one optimized for FPS games. The creator demonstrates the controller's customization through the Scuf app, highlighting the ability to remap all buttons and adjust lighting. He then tests the controller in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on PC, praising the game's movement mechanics and the controller's responsiveness, particularly for sniping. Despite some initial connection issues and experiencing cheaters, he concludes that the Omega is a significant upgrade and intends to make it his primary controller.
