What controller’s thumb sticks drift more? It determines which console I’ll buy.

As a scuf instinct (pro?) owner, it was the best and worst controller I’ve ever owned. Worked great, but had poor finish. The rubber degraded over a year (I’m very gentle on controllers), the creaking because the controller just has bad build and structural quality somehow, sticking buttons because

It finally happened

In my controller collection, I have two Scuf Instinct Pro controllers and one Scuf Envision Pro. There's no denying they're well-made, even though they have some design flaws, like the rear paddles. One of mine broke on an Instinct Pro, and I had to send it in for repair. But the technology used and

Best Controller?

One of the rear paddles on my Scuf Instinct Pro just broke again last night for the 8th or 9th time if that tells you anything. Steer clear of Scuf unless you want your controller to be sent in more for repair than playtime you have with it.
