Saitek Cyborg Command Unit Reviews
| 30 of 31 people found the following review helpful:  Very Happy, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Saitek Cyborg Command Unit (Personal Computers) I have purchased numerous gamepads in the past, and have eventually returned or sold them, as I could never get the buttons programmed to all the key features I needed. With this pad, I am pleased. The buttons can be programmed to any keystrike you like, and there is even a shift button, just under the base of the thumb, which essentially doubles all the buttons. It does take a little while to get the hang of the program software, but once learned, it is seamless. I have played Half-Life 2:episode one and Darwinia, freed of the key board. Each game has a different profile which is easily loaded prior to starting the games. Of note, this keypad only works with the left hand, leaving the right to drive the mouse. Not a problem for me, but I know some people shop at the Leftorium, and this may not accomodate them. Also, tho it looks like the distance from the handrest to the keys may be adjusted, they are actually fixed. The thumb dongle, however, may be tilted and slid in an...

I figured I would give this one a try and I admit I really like it. The buttons have the right press depth for me, my reaction is faster than clicking on the UI, the programming software is straight-forward and the device is ergonomically designed for comfort. No more losing in PvP while making sure I am clicking the right button, I can use my mouse for movement and use the Gamer Pad for using my abilities. You'll wonder how the heck you ever played w/o it. Cons: 1. The feet slip, you'll need to buy no slip pads for the bottom. 2. You have to load the profile everytime you start the game. Unlike the N52 which loaded the profile whenever the game started. 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful: The best gamepad to complement my mouse, By This review is from: Saitek Cyborg Command Unit (Personal Computers) My history with these gaming keypads began when I was frustrated and fed up with losing in various PC games, especially first person shooters. My deaths have been facilitated for my opponents due to a syndrome I labeled "command paralysis." Command paralysis is when a player (1) presses too many keys on his keyboard, thus jamming the keyboard, (2) has too many fingers locked down on many vital keys and is unable to sacrifice one more finger to complete the sequence of actions that will save the player from humiliating death, or (3) has several fingers occupied with one section of the keyboard and cannot press keys to activate commands located on the other side. I credit the main cause of command paralysis to the WASD control scheme. Because WASD dictates orthogonal directions, at least four separate buttons/keys are required to control the movements of an in-game character. Too many fingers can get tied up when pressing these keys, limiting the number of actions per time... Read more |
