  • Very responsive motion detection controller, Nice finish, Compatible with 125 games, A unique PC controller, Portal 2 supplied on limited edition
  • You have to remain facing the base station, The controller has to be calibrated each time you use it, No vibration
  • At last, PC gamers have their own motion controller! This gamepad from Razer gives an interesting gaming experience though its reach is limited. The Hydra will work well with FPS titles where the action doesn't move too fast, or with action-adventure game...

  • Magnetic motion sensing base station never skips a beat, Makes motion gaming available to PC users, Comes bundled with Portal 2, Controllers feel great in-hand, Buttons and joysticks on controllers definitely lend this to hardcore gamers, Configuration software available for download, Over 125 compatible titles,
  • Portal 2 is the only game that supports the Hydra natively, Wired controllers will limit your range of motion,
  • The Razer Hydra is trying to fill a market space sorely lacking in PC gamingmotion controls. However, with only one game currently supporting this device natively, is the Hydra really something gamers want to invest in? ...

  • Motionsensitive, Highly accurate for a motioncontroller, Offers 14 buttons and two analog sticks between two controllers, Customizable controls
  • Not fully supported by most games, Not as accurate as keyboard and mouse, Learning curve, Relatively expensive, Controllers must be wired to base station

  • Ergonomic design; sensitive motion control; plenty of buttons; excellent Portal 2 support.
  • Lacking in software support; lots o’ cables; button layout is cramped when used as a gamepad.

  • This brings my Razer Hydra review post to its conclusion. Razer Hydra brings gaming to the next level, assuming the game developers take it seriously and start updating their games to fully support motion sensing. The partnership with Valve definitely ...
