Have some Xbox gaming history in your hands for not a bad price.
Recently our game's editor Jez Corden did a full review of the Hyperkin Duke Xbox One controller – a revival of the original Xbox controller from 2001. Priced at $70 the 2018 edition is proving to be quite popular.
I recently took it for a spin and compared it to the original to see what is new and what is different, which you can see in our latest review video.
One thing I like about this whole project is the original Duke was panned so heavily in 2001 that Microsoft had to redo it with a slimmed-down variant to appease gamers quickly. Now, in 2018, suddenly people want the original, but they also want it to work with a new Xbox One or their PC.
Hyperkin did a great job with the update, which includes new shoulder buttons that were not on the original, modern trigger buttons that have smoother momentum, and a bright large OLED display in the center that shows the original Xbox animation.
That display though would be great to use as a secondary screen for gaming, and while that would require some high-end programming, it may not be a bad idea if Microsoft and Hyperkin want to work that out.
