Review: Nearly Perfect - Great upgrade for any Fighting Commander player - I played on the PS4 FC for the last 2 years and, to it's credit, it held up to the punishment (around 1500 hours of SFV and various other fighters on both PS4 and PC) but eventually, it's buttons just kinda stopped working. So I decided to jump to the Octo here with my fingers crossed since I play mostly on PC these days and was pleasantly surprised. I couldn't tell you if it will stand the test of time or not, but for the price, I'm not terribly worried. You simply cannot get a controller (of any kind) of this quality at this pricepoint. This one has excellent MECHANICAL buttons that are simply a joy to press. If you love those fight stick buttons, you're going to be a happy camper with this pad. Reception on the D-Pad is mixed, but I love it. My only complaints are that the D-Pad cross has hard edges which can hurt my thumb after hours of continuous play and that it does NOT have the mechanical actuation that the buttons have. I would have happily paid another 10-20 bucks if that was the case, as it feels a little odd to have clicky feedback on one side of the controller but not on the other. But I still give this controller 5-stars despite my hair-splitting complaints. It could be better, but it's still best-of-class. It's great. You should get one.
Review: Amazing controller to play retro Sega Saturn games on Xbox Series X Retroarch Emulator - This HORI Commander Octa Xbox controller is Amazing. As of this review on 12/1/23 - it’s an official Xbox authorized 3rd party controller that is supported after they took access away support from other 3rd party controllers last month. It’s especially great to use with Sega Saturn / Genesis / CPS systems (Street Fighter Arcade cabs, 6 buttons fighters etc) - I bought this specifically to use on my Xbox Series X in dev mode to play Sega Saturn games proper on the Retroarch Emulator; and couldn’t be happier. This was the layout of the original Saturn controller too with a couple extra triggers for quality of life mappings. The D-pad is really nice and responsive. Same with the analog stick, it’s like perfect - I didn’t even have to install HORI’s custom software to make custom tweaks to the D-pad settings and folder presets. It all felt right straight out of the box. Buttons are quick and responsive, They barely need to be pressed to register an input. Took a little to get used to that. But, there’s basically no lag because it’s a wired controller with a 10 foot long cord. The wire also has a safety break away if it gets tugged too hard so that it won’t pull your hardware off the shelf with it. Only issue is there’s no rumble support. But the Sega Saturn never came with rumble controllers anyway. Also this controller is great for N64 mappings as they had 6 face buttons with one analog stick on their original trident shaped controller in the 90’s. If you like retro games and fighting games, then you’ll love his controller. 11 out of 10. Highly recommended.

### ⭐ Dpad still not great
*by O***R on September 25, 2022*

UPDATE: Original review below but I gotta knock this down to a 1-star. I've got a few dozen hours into this thing now and the dpad is definitely trash. Unlike most bad daps, instead of the corners being bad, it would seem that the cardinal directions are the problem. Which is weird. Even worse, the pad requires a significant hold to keep the input. If you let off even slightly, it'll release back to neutral (or start bouncing back-and-forth with the corner input, which is not good). So I'm killing my thumb just trying to maintain, say, a down input. It's sad because I do like everything else about the pad. This dpad just ain't cuttin it. Giving this a tentative 3-star. The biggest issue for the Hori FC is still the dpad; however, this current iteration is at least better than the redesign one they did with the FC4. My rating is tentative because I can already tell that I'll need to put in some significant time to break in the pad. Right now, it's incredibly stiff, so there are a lot of dropped inputs for certain complex sequences. This could definitely get better once it loosens up, or it could get worse. (Although it still confused the **** out of me that they ever moved away from the original FC4 dpad design. That was one of the best dpad's ever, and right out of the box, too.) I also don't know how the dpad will hold up over time, so it could be low quality and just wear out. We'll have to see. So again, this could go to 5, could go down to 1, just need more hours on it. Otherwise, it's a solid controller. A little light in weight, but still seems to be solid construction. Buttons are all nice and responsive. Really no other complaints than the dpad. I'll also note briefly that I'm a life-long pad player. I see a lot of reviews from stick players; my main controller has always been pad, so I've tried a ton of different brands and styles of pad, including Hori contemporaries like the PowerA Fusion and Razer Raion (which I've reviewed here on amazon). Hori is still way better than those, but Hori is just a ways from the insanely awesome pad that was the original FC4. Take from that what you will.
