![]() ![]() The PDP Faceoff Controller ultimately functions like the basic first-party controller, except with some tweaks that are sort of a mixed bag. Lastly, at the bottom of the controller is a 3.5mm headphone jack that allows you plug your headset directly into it. Really the difference while playing isn’t that noticeable, except maybe in tight situations when grip is key. The thumb sticks feel as if they are a bit more concaved with a slightly more defined inner ridge. The A, X, Y, B buttons are matte finished instead of glossy and the Xbox button is raised more with white and black detail. Is this an important difference? Not particularly, but the wider activation area allows for a different grip that some players may like better. The native Xbox One controller bumpers can only be activated from the sides. In addition, the PDP controller also has a larger activation zone on the bumper, allowing you to place your finger almost on top of the bumper to press it. The PDP controller, by contrast, has a much quieter click and a softer feel when pressing it. The first-party bumpers also feel more stiff and springy. Not loud like the mechanical keyboard I am using now, but a distinct click to show that you have activated it. Using the Xbox One controller that originally came with my console, I notice that the bumpers have a bit of a click to them. ![]() The slight differences are mainly at the top of the controller. The weight, grip, and layout are near identical to the first-party controller. Even a slight tweak in the weight or position of the buttons could through a gamer off. The last thing you want to do is spend time adapting to the layout or the feel of the controller you just bought. For the most part, there are no real differences, and that is fantastic. One of my favorite things about using a PDP controller is the overall feel that I am using a Microsoft-produced Xbox controller. Will this be a new fad carried into other licenses, or is this just another gimmick? I reviewed it to find out. ![]() To start, PDP is releasing the NFL Official Faceoff Controller. Instead, this is a controller that allows you to take the faceplate off the controller and swap it out for a new one. No this is not a controller themed to the 1997 movie Face/Off. The company, known for its Afterglow series, released a new series of controllers for the Xbox One: The Faceoff Controller. PDP is arguably one of the top brands when it comes to third-party gaming peripherals. ![]()
