With Sony still neglecting to create a 'Pro' or 'Elite' DualShock 4 itself, it's up to third parties to fill the space with a variety of alternative pads. We've seen a few efforts over the last couple of years, and now tech company Astro has stepped into the arena with its C40 TR controller.
As with other controllers of its ilk, the C40 TR has been built to accommodate for hardcore players and professional use in tournaments. Rear buttons and trigger stops, along with some accompanying software, allow you to configure the pad to your liking. Its USP, however, is its modular front. The two sticks and the D-pad can all be swapped around as you see fit, and there are even alternative stick caps for you to customise how they feel. It's an interesting proposition that some PS4 owners might want to consider, although at $199.99, it's pretty pricey.
What do you think of the Astro C40 TR controller? Prepare for your next big tournament in the comments below.

Looks interesting but expensive too...
Just in time... oh wait. No.
Looks nice, but it should be black with glowing red lights and the words "X-TREME GAMR" emblazoned front and centre.

........I just want a DS4 with paddles at a reasonable price..... $200 for a controller is insane. You can get a PS4 for less
Yeah, no. DS4 serves me perfectly fine still.
@Neolit Just wait a while and when it doesnt sell they can drop it at 130. Or i just buy a VR just save up a little extra. These prices are insane even it looks that cool. π’
@Neolit For me β¬200 is just to much for a controller. I think above β¬100 is already to high. A PS4 Pro controller with paddles and a a little more Premium materials is enough. I like the controller as it is and i was a big fan of the PS3 one not so big hands you see. π
I like the battery life. The price can go in the Trash tho
200!? That is hilarious!
I'd consider it for $150.
