- The Xbox One Fusion controller by PowerA has a lot of the same features as the Xbox One Elite controller, but it's $100 cheaper. Here's how they stack up.

90% comments is about the sexy aussie chick
10% about the controller
DontGetOffended I know right
DO U KNOW DA WAE
No comments about the controller. All about the girl. Great job guys. Proud of you.
Mørkskogg was hoping to see if somebody had bought this and tested it out...
@@kauzinhavok im sure you dont care 1 year later but the controller is very lightweight and feels different. You get used to it eventually and fall in love with the back buttons and the very quick triggers. Play around with different stick combinations. But face buttons stop working in about a month
Sounds like you guys hate it lol
I'm going to buy one of these because I'm curious, but I agree it doesn't sound like they like it all that much. Makes the title seem like click-bait.
and powera gave them the controller for free to do a review on it
Jerry Neutron LMAO ikr
I'll just stick to the default controller for the xb1
That's not good enough! Fancy buttons are everything!
Me to bro
Lol i preordered the elite and have loved it ever since
I can't go back to the default controller, seems so... flimsy, now.
What are you using? The elite? I've been thinking about it but $150?
this guy looks like Steve Rogers before he got the super soldier serum
Spot on dude super serum
😂😂😂
Hahaha, yes he does!
damn, that hurts...
Had me crying 😂😂 he really does aha my man needs to start lifting something, looking like a prisoner of war 😂✋
Came for the controller, stayed for the girl...
more like stayed for the controller....came for the girl
if u know what i mean
Ha
Way to blow the punchline. I guess now that's out of the way its a load off your mind?
she aint even all that
I came for the girl and just left 😏
The best part about this controller, the girl doing the review.
The worst is the guy
I heard shes lesbian.
True!!! Big fan!
Nooo......(Like I had a chance)
There is a joystick in my pants you just need to play with it.
I may get this controller.
I prefer wired and it's cheaper than a casual wireless controller so I'm sold on this :D
Agree, I like the design of the remote and plus no more battery changes or the controller dying and turning back on by itself.
Same here! Wired, cool and only 50!? I 'm sold!
Buy the after glow it's the same thing but many more buttons than the elite
Lel
Enough about the controller the question here is how much does she cost?
the dudes t shirt is awesome and should happen
Honestly even though it would be bad overall for us consumers if Sony and Microsoft teamed up and made one console together, I would like it to happen because Sony can handle the hardware side and Microsoft can handle the software and online network infrastructure.
Crossplay
PSYCHO no Microsoft can handle hardware and software. Microsoft for life
Matt z Reacts wow. You clearly are under 13 haha
Glob clearly hes a kid? i have no dog in this fight but people are allowed to have opinions on that past the age of 13. Microsoft has made some really great hardware over the years, as has Sony and even Nintendo.
Yes she's gorgeous, but jesus Christ guys you are acting like you've never seen a woman Before. Lol tone it down a Little!
yo wtf is a girl
A lot of inappropriate comments here.
Of course. Most of the people who comment about the girl are gamers who don't go outside much 😂
Number Juan lol fr GRILL
to hell with the controller she's gorgeous
The Rambonator take it in real life your a woman and child abusing no self esteem tough guy only behind a keyboard get a life
Hats off to the Aussie women. Many beautiful ladies down under.
no its probably just the hair
Inappropriate.
amen
Xbox: LETS MAKE THE CONTROLLER THAT GAMERS DREAMED OF! THATS CUSTOMIZABLE. THE XBOX ELITE CONTROLLER!PlayStation: *looks at the controller, looks at theirs* *takes a photo* In 2017PlayStation: WE NOW PRESENT YOU THE PS4 CONTROLLER plus!
If they were making a new dual shock I think they would have announced it by now
Matthew Rondello on the ps4 pro they announced it
A new "gaming controller"

The Elite is overpriced anyway, nice to have alternatives.
I always wondered why it costs that much
" 'Elite' duh... Now give us $150" 😁 Sure some will say it feels good, it has a nice finish... It's still way too expensive.
For what it is, it's a very good price. Very reasonable. That being said, I'm fine with my standard xb1 controller and spending 150$ isnt worth it for me...but it's not overpriced.
Yeah idk why people keep saying that. I guess stuff like scuf really isn't that popular with most people.
The elite is trash, it's only under warranty for 3 months. Mine broke after 6 months and I ONLY used for competitive play. That $150 price tag should come with a better warranty. Very overpriced.
If I buy this controller does this come with the girl ?
*followed by fine print that states: "although only in your wet dreams, not real life..." ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
A girl with a price tag has no worth
Nope just the dude
No
dj finger funk nad
Yay
4:18 that's what all women say
lmao
iAMe100XP she a man bro
That's what they say to me😭
I want her.
she has just gotten more attractive since she started working at IGN tbh
and she wants you ;)

I want the Elite controller to cost $50.
I want her too
it look like one of them old wired ps2 controller that had the pointless turbo button on it lol
What did the turbo button do??
I remember those, this made me laugh lol
I have no idea lol every time I hit it ... it used to make the game glitchy no matter what I was playing
ha lol i remember those
it made us go forward into the ps3 it basically turned the ps2 into a ps3
lol, Wired controller "basically the elite"
They had to cut corners
Look at it this way no more switching out or recharging batteries
I sit at a desk and play on a small Vizio so wired controller isn't a problem for me.
+LORD RAMSAY BOLTON uhhh the elite comes with a wire.
I love wired controllers in almost every way
afterglow lights up any color it's 50$ and it has 6 buttons on the back and a detachable wire to it that has to be pulled in but unplug if bumped. it also has a remap system and a voice adjustment and probably more stuff I can't think of.
Why does everyone keep saying "The girl on the leaft" THERES ONLY ONE GIRL LOL
Because the other person is a sad excuse for a man. He'd probably collapse carrying a 2x4x8'.
@@TheRealChilly lmao
@@TheRealChilly look at me big strong man i can carry 2x4x8
Have both. The paddles on the elite are a huge difference compared to those buttons on the other. The buttons are a actually really hard to push in the other. (The ones in bottom)
2:53 Alanah said "I don't care" 😂
I have the same company's XBOX 360 controller I bought years ago. Wired as well. Still works well almost 10 years later.
Wait, if he doesn't use the backpaddles, why does he have the elite then? for higher sticks he can just get some kontrol freeks. and since he's not into shooters as he said he probably doesn't use the triggerlocks either. Then the controller is just not made for him. Am i missing something?
He's really into magnets.
I bought one of these controllers over a year ago now and its still working fine. it feels plasticy because its made from plastic which is no big deal as you can wrap the pad with rubber or tape. I bought the Power A fushion for £25 and its already lasted 4 time longer than my last controller, which was a day one Elite that cost me £130. I also found the Elite controller padels were a very clumsy design as I could only use 2 of them as i found i kept knocking the other padels. The extra 2 buttons on the Fushion are a great design and for me in exactly the right place. its super easy to assign the buttons to the extra buttons and you can change them on the fly. Best functional controller i have ever owned. will buy another when this one finally quits.
that girl is so beautiful
She has natural beauty. She doesnt have to wear makeup, to look beautiful
Move over Naomi!!!
yep
Australia is full of girls just like her.
It's at the beginning of thr video mate
One minor benefit of this controller is that they use buttons over paddles. Paddles are great for ergonomics, but you can't set the elite controller down on your knee (or couch arm) without pressing the paddles. You always have to set it on a table.
It's easy to remember the difference between concave and convex. Concave is curved inward like the mouth of a cave. Convex is the other way.
If you have a gold Bugatti, A Gold Iphone 7, A gold set of teeth then you'd have no problem with this controller
it looks like a classic xbox original controller
The elite controller is a boss honestly it's like he said until you got in your hands you then feel the quaility but the dude said he does not use the paddles on the back so I am not sure why u would not just use a standards controller then
Frankthetank Well the Elite is more than just the paddles lol. There are certain settings of course you can set for your controller and it's obviously feels like a regular default.
wireless has delay, input lag , why the hell you want wireless ? oh yeah casuals
Well then I dunno what controller/tv you're using because it's not even noticeable. It's practically non-existent.
for most folks, it's not that serious. gaming is a hobby to wind down after work. Relaxing on the couch and playing a game for a couple hours instead of watching TV. unless you are ultra competetive and playing for money, wireless is sufficient.
for some games crt and for some others a monitor with 5 to 2ms input lag, either for training combos or speedruns,
then i have a 31" lcd for slow paced games but even there i use wired controllers, if the big hdmi tv has no gaming mode to reduce the visual lag, you will be in a limbo of visual/input lag , which doesn't matter if you dont care but well
That might explain the input lag then ;)
i mean if you use the wireless even in a 0 input lag monitor there is going to be from the wireless controller non direct signal, hope im clear :)
I had this controller and after about 3 months of having the controller, on Battlefield 1 and GTA and other shooters, my controller started making my guns either stop shooting or automatically shoot without my input, I’m still dealing with this issue now as there are pretty much no ways that I know of to fix it. This issue is very very annoying and stressful!
It looks way more like a 360 controller then a GameCube one.
scuff: don't copy word for word.
fusion: i got you fam.
Well, just another clickbait video with no real content....
By the way wired has a lower latency than wireless so it will help with the reaction time between the machine and the controller a lot. Possibly this will work well with PC as well.
But to know this I have to check a real review about this...as this video was not a great review for sure.... (Ryan was like if this is not expensive it cannot be as good as Elite...)
the elite has way more customisation of buttons with the app called xbox accessories
You sure about that?
I have my elite and I only use two paddles when I play gears or a shooter when I want to jump. I rarely have 3 or 4 plugged in. And I don't use batteries so I'm always wired. Wish I saw this many months ago. Convex on the left stick. Extended stick on the right.
DAMN SHE'S HOT
Shut up
Hey don't hate he can say what he wants to
The girl on the left or the girl on the right...?
Infer who are you talking to
+scottandroni365 u mean he manly
"This controller is $50 and by the end of the video we BOTH hate it!"
Looks like a 360 controller if it had an elite version
I like ol Ryan, he's got a certain character/professionalism he brings to his showings.
The dude with the wig is trying too hard to be girl. Those hormones have helped the voice, his figure helps with the dress, and the make up completes the female illusion.
Cool story
Don't say that, I was just about to whip off to her/him...
+Myalteregokenneth just needed to point it out hehe xD
I´m falling in love by the controller!
nope!
That girl took my heart!
This controller seems like the xbox 360 controller
GTR4life Awsomeboss I love the 360 controller so much
I have this. You can get it for like 25 not 50 and for the price its pretty good. Cheap feeling but still perfectly functional. Looking to get something else after using this for almost a year although it still functions fine
Her accent just keeps changing from American to British tf
Canadian
she australian lol
I've had mine for awhile and it really is awesome, you can easily program the buttons on the back for more than one game. I do hate the gold though
This girl is really pretty when she tries
"Pretty" is the cheapest compliment you can give her. She's BEAUTIFUL/GORGEOUS.
PSYCHO he lol she transexual
The only things that I need are two paddles on the back (Jump/crouch).
Yeah I'd never buy one of those stupid expensive controller, and cables never bother me, most of my controllers spend their lives plugged in anyway, I hate running out of power, even worse on Xbox because they aren't rechargable. And I say, this Alanah is rather pretty, can you imagine if they put her in the daily fix, all the shutins arguing about who is prettier, her or Naomi lol
Easiest way to remember "Concave" versus "Convex".
Concave goes IN to the cave, Convex DOESN'T.
If it's only "almost as good as the elite", it must be super duper shitty
that's also coming from ign reporters 😂
The Elite controller IS bad. Do your research. It has bad reviews from gamers on Amazon.
LOL how am I a troll? I'm going by reviews. Bad reviews are the only thing keeping me from buying the $200 Gears Of War 4 Elite controller.
Broseph Argon Dude I wanna buy the Gears 4 Elite controller badly but not if the warranty is only 90 days and then the bumpers break all of a sudden. I've read many bad reviews on Amazon with pictures posted too.
Broseph Argon Where can I get the extended warranty? Isn't Xbox.com the only site where I can buy the Gears 4 controller?
Nice video I'd like to see IGN test this out somehow against the Elite. I would never buy an Elite I just don't want to spend that much money but I would definitely buy this controller, but only after getting enough info, looking at reviews, etc to make sure it doesn't fall apart after a while.
I'll buy just because that chic is hot...
Eh she's not horrible looking
who said he was American?
if you dont think she is hot. I have a news for you. YOU SR LIKE MAN
Where did you get that statistics?
You do know she doesn't come with the controller right?
I'm interested in this but the price makes me skeptical about how well it'll perform over time.
I wonder if the girl on the left is single.
dang
***** Run cool water over burn, lol
You wonder if the girl on the left is single if I'm right she is the only girl in this video
GGWP
She's not single. She already answered that question on her UA-cam channel.
I miss listening to Dan and Ryan on OXM Podcast!!!
I got this thing for $10 at Toys R Us
DM Wanderer how you do that when toys r us is shut
Interesting framing choice by the cameraman at 0:26. It's almost as if it's not actually the controller which you're supposed to be focused on...
goddamnit 😂😂😂
Which is better Xbox one or ps4?? (I don't care about the graphics)
PS4
depends
it depends on you
At this current state I would go with xbox one...
lmao it depends
Just got a new 1 today from eBay, I tried it playing infinite warfare and I'm very happy with it. True the d pad feels cheap and make noise. But the button in the back feels good. If you have big hands you'll have a hard time using them.
Not being sexist here but if a girl is happy with the controller...I'm not convinced.
ITSALLDERIVITIVE That is pretty sexist lmao
I like how this whole review is based on the looks and feel of the controller and not how it actually performs in game.
She's wearing a dress ?!?!? :O
I'm curious.. do the sticks feel more similar to the xbox one controller or the xbox 360? The xbox 360 controller's sticks are more stiff and less sensitive move, which i prefer when aiming on shooters
Takes so little to get a person triggered on here now a days lol.
amazon basics wired controller or this one?
WHO IS SHE! I need social media info asap
It's right there at the beginning of the video.
"Wireless is pretty great" and that's when I stopped taking them serious.
A new low point for ign. Comparing a 50$ trash controller that look so focking cheap to the elite controller and telling poeple its about the same. You realy do not have to be smart at all to work at ign.
Calm down.
My elite broke after 6 months. They are only insured for 3 months. Such a hefty price tag should have a much better warranty which it would if Microsoft had any faith in their product at all. My standard controller has outlasted my elite by over a year at least with much more use. This looks like a really good alternative to me.
Black Shepard Yeah; I would think a $150 controller would have at least a year or 2 year warranty.
It can even get worse. Scuff broken after 6 weeks. Burn controller after 2 weeks. My elite controller got it from launch and still working perfect.
I just got mine yesterday... Pretty good to be honest kinda hard to get used to it after playing just wireless, but honestly im glad i bought it as my second alternative
how is the sensitivity on the controller? like the original xbox controller?
Yep about the same, the differences are in the rb lb bumps, and the analog cros, they are just a bit cilckier on the wireless controller, the trigger stops are great, and the extra configurable two buttons are cliky and easy to use.
this $50 Xbox controller is almost as useless as the elite
superbad
Have you tried Xbox Elite Controller? I have and it's not useless! It's completely worth the money! It feels amazing! We have a upper edge in FPS games, We have many different sticks depending on your playstyle.
lol he don't know what he's talking about
what elite controller is useless......you probably hating because you can't afford it
BUGS BOONY Haha, ikr xD
It honestly looks better than official Xbox One Controllers tbh lmao, it has that amazing 360 Feel and the 360 is much better than the Xbox One of course :P Plus the gold looks really nice and blends in well with the black!
She's not that hot lol
fite me.
Better than Naomi and people go nuts over her.
#forgetnaomi
She a solid 7.5
Atoms Molecules nah better standards
I had one of these minus the bottom button ofcourse for my x360 and love it! Gonna have to find this one as my elite is falling apart.
Why would you buy a $150 controller unless you're like a pro.
what crowd?xD in your room? when your playing ?
my wife bought me my elite controller for our anniversary and I love it more than her
how do you like it compared to the regular controller. You know without the sentimental value.
it takes getting used to but the button mapping is painfully convenient. from cod to the division and Destiny. compared to the scruff controller it's worth the price imo
This definately makes it worth it. I like the ability to remove everything and interchange it during gameplay and such. Also the software that you have to use is very easy to understand so its a big bonus.
I need a new controller bad, my lunar white was great but worn out in 7
months. Does this one fit my kontrolfreeks as well? Is it larger
overall than the MS controller like the 360 was?
*Dont get this controller* I bought my first one and within a month or two the "A" button went out. So i went to the store and bought another one. Again, i used it for a couple weeks this time before bam! The "A" button went out again. It is a cheap controller and a waste of money do not waste your money on this controller.
I agree. They cheaped out on the controller membrane, making the buttons incredibly susceptible to sticking. My A button started sticking only after around 9 months... Big disadvantage when trying to jump in Rocket League.
BCB9614 agreed I personally don’t like the controller. My RB button would stick sometimes and that was my boost button so quite critically
Easy way to remember concave and convex. Concave caves in, you go inside caves, so there is a divot. Simple stuff
Marry me Alana
The Power A controllers look good, but I just haven't been into third party since first party controllers went wireless.
stop being CHEAP and just but the REAL stuff... no 3rd party.
Says the Asian
bought two elites and both suffered from drifting after 2 months of use!
Why no third party? They work, sometimes better than the first party product. Also buy*
That's not always the case, headsets and arcade sticks say otherwise.
Kong Lee ok can you buy me an elite controller than?
I bought one at Walmart for $30, and I loved it , until it broke after 3 mo the, but I did drop it at least 10 times before it broke!
She has nice legs
Concave goes in Convex goes out. Just remember concave is like a caving in. This helps me to remember the difference.
I got me a fusion a few days ago and the only thing I don’t like about it is the way the controller is shaped
Get the rainbow led controller instead. Also 50 dollars. It’s actually the perfect player 2 or 1. Because it’s wired I only had to buy a single nyko controller dock; looks quite nice.
the best controller I've found so far is the Xbox360 wired controller. it works with everything, surprisingly with Mac as well, and is cheap as hell.
also hard to find in a shop nowadays
This dude is the best example of how some man greatly benefit from having a full beard
Bought it.I actually really liked the different interchangeable thumb sticks. And 2 weeks in she is giving me problems.strange problems like in the home screen moving up and down through the tabs. The cursor is stuck at the bottom and I can't move it up . But some screens seem to work. Any help would be sweet but I think it's done...fml I guess I'm back in the market for a control . I just want something different and awesome
I have a regular PowerA controller and I think it feels perfectly fine. I think it has a better overall grip than the regular controller.
I’ve brought this 3 times because the a button sticks but considering the price it is the best elite substitute
The problem with the Xbox Elite controller is that there's little Quality Control. Drift, sticking, jiggling sticks, broken bumpers, etc.
i have this controller, and am happy with it. the cable doesn’t bother me
a good way to remember concave from convex is concave like a cave
I had this controller it felt ok it felt hollow though but after a few weeks the left analog stick was operating fine and was in the middle like it should be but was putting in the left input so any game I would walk or steer left
I need help because I can’t find them with the 4 buttons on the back I can only find the two button ones
Don't get it, the buttons get stuck if you use them too much, I would use a regular or save up and get an elite
I would be happy if you can remove the wire when you're not using the controller but its $100 cheaper than the elite
