Has anyone ever heard of these? If so do they really help?

I doubt they make a difference, they look uncomfortable

I know of a few people that use them and they say it has improved there game. For only 10 dollars plus shipping and handling its not bad. People have spent a lot more on modded controllers trying to get an edge.

I remember hearing about these before. I think it was on TV and they were reviewing them. The reviewers said that they surprisingly work. They said that they make you movements much more precise by lengthening the sticks and allowing you to make small but quick movements much easier than the default control sticks.

Why wouldn't you just bump up your sensitivity for free...?

It allows you to make slower more precise movements or quicker movements by giving your thumbs more leverage with the added distance from the base of the thumbstick. It's different than turning up your sensitivity. Turning up the sensitivity only makes you turn faster, if anything these allow you to turn slower and be more precise with your aim at the same time.

I bought some out of curiosity and never really used them. However my cousin did and he said they helped his BR out in Halo.

Also be careful putting them on. I used a little too much force when pressing them on and jacked up my right stick. Now zooming in on Halo is jacked for that controller.
