    Works really well!!

    • Written by from Homebush West

    Its very easy to use.
    I just used this to play Order and Chaos Online and NOVA 3.
    I must say, it is A LOT better than virtual controls, more space on screen and no more "accidental" button pressing. I love this controller, it works so well and makes games so much more fun!!!

    Awesome

    • Written by from Rochester

    Wow, the Duo Gamer is an absolutely awesome controller. The controller is solid and the buttons are responsive. The included stand makes gaming feel like a console experience. The supported games work flawlessly with the Duo and First Person Shooters are now playable the way they should be.

    I feel like I now have an unfair advantage when playing online but I can live with that.

    Highly Recommended.     …More

    It's a controller that works.

    • Written by from Granbury

    It does what it says. It will not whisk you away to another universe where your iPad becomes cooler than your Xbox. I enjoyed playing MC3 and BIA while traveling.I hope this will inspire more mobile gaming in the future. Android has made me jealous with their Bluetooth support for some time and now their is hope. …More

    Great

    • Written by from Quebec

    Excuse my poor english im french....

    This is great, playing MC3 is fun and smooth, i now rank in the 3 top player of the match almost everytime. Still waiting for MC4 to be compatible. Tried with Order and Chaos and its not so great, lot of fonction still need you to touch the screen like looting and accessing some menu features. Tried with Asphalt 7 and It work well, im not into racing game so im not going to take solid position here about if its good for that or not. There is no sensitivity on the control sticks ; you cant move slow or fast, same for aiming , make it difficult sometime. Overall its great , lot of potential, gameloft make good games so im not worried and ill be soon satisfied with the compatible games library.

    Buy if you are into the Modern Combat serie, otherwise idk...     …More

    What a joke...

    • Written by from Austin

    Just bought this controller. Was a bit distraught to find out that it does not (yet?) work with Modern Combat 4. But I would be wiling to wait...if it worked with any of the other Gameloft games that I have on my iPad. This includes Wild Blood, Modern Combat 3, and NOVA 3.

    I've paired and unpaired it, switched the batteries and done any number of other arcane actions I can think of, and it has made no difference.

    Also, does not turn off after five minutes of being idle as it is supposed to do.

    Last, it has no reset button as the instructions claim.     …More
