SCUF is a brand name that has long existed in the realm of console esports, often the controller of choice for competitive players and with some of the biggest names in games such as Call of Duty<\/a>, Halo and Fortnite<\/a> using their controllers and even having their own designs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I was lucky enough to receive a SCUF Impact controller<\/a> to review for GINX Esports TV, and was sent popular YouTuber Ali-A’s design to test out.<\/p>\n

The first, and most noticeable difference between the SCUF Impact and the standard Dualshock 4 controller is the shape of it. Where the standard DS4 is quite small and looks light, similar to its PS2 and PS3 predecessors, the SCUF Impact is a big, thick controller more reminiscent of the Xbox 360 pad. I always assumed these would be better for bigger hands but ironically I, with my small juvenile hands, found it much more comfortable than the DS4 that you get with your PlayStation 4 system. The placement of the paddles on the back (which are also removable based on user preference) is clearly well-planned, a comfortable fit that doesn’t grate on the hand with a few hours of use.<\/p>\n

Building the SCUF Impact<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

User preference is evidently at the forefront of SCUF’s process. These are not products that have a “one size fits all” approach. This starts from the very core of the make-up of the controller up to the way it looks.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Going through the customisation options, there’s little left to the imagination with so many bases covered. With a choice between the SCUF Impact, the SCUF Infinity 4PS Pro (both PS4), the SCUF Prestige and the SCUF Elite (both Xbox 360), the customer is immediately presented with a variety of options to choose from. From then on, it becomes a minefield of colours, designs, sticks, triggers and bumpers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With multiple professional players and teams across different titles having their own personal designs, it’s easy to support your favourites straight from the off.<\/p>\n
