I'm a software engineer . . . On my computer all day. I've had carpal tunnel surgery, but I still have problems with my wrists. I play COD and Halo for about 4 hours every night and I had a lot of pain in my wrists and thumbs. My BF got this for me for my birthday and I have NO problems even after playing for hours. It looks kinda silly and it took a few hours to get used to it, but it's the best for keeping your hands in a natural position while kicking @ss on Xbox . . . I recommend it to all of my gamer friends.

Being a Gamer/Journalist is a fun job, but after a while the amount of time you spend with a controller in your hands can be hazardous to your health. The ongoing issues of death gripping controllers and the risk you run of encountering carpal tunnel syndrome runs high when you are gaming close to 30 hours a week. And with the skill level required these days to play FPS any advantage will help. Late last year I came across a product that has since changed the way I game. Through the ergonomic design of XtendPlay I have found increased comfort which has led to a rise in my skill level. For the first time in my life I can say I hold positive stats in Call Of Duty and Gears Of War. Beyond this, my rank in Monday Night Combat has soared from the 100,000 range to the area of 6,900. When these guys tell you that you will play better, this is not a marketing ploy. Take it from me… I will not game without an XtendPlay unit. Stop thinking and pull the trigger. You will not regret this purchase I promise you.

Wasn't quite sure what to make of this when I first saw it but decided to give it a shot. Definitely glad I did. I'm not a huge gamer but when I play I get into it, and it was bumming me out that my hands started actually hurting after about 30 min. And of course my game went downhill at that point. As odd as it might look this thing knocked that out. Even in the shorter stretches of time that I play, using xtendplay just feels better than using the controller without it. Seems more stable, and the grip is better. Took a bit of getting used to but worth it.

This may look like a strange and unconventional product, but it's definitely a product that works. After using XtendPlay for only a few days I noticed vast improvements in my game and experienced optimal comfort while doing so. XtendPlay will boost your game.

When my husband brought home the XtendPlay after Pax East in 2011, I took one look at it and said "mine." I have been using it all along and love it. You can play for 10 minutes or 10 hours and it is easy on your hands. I would not want to be without it.

As a casual gamer I never saw myself using anything other than a standard controller but when I got the chance to use XtendPlay I noticed how much more relaxed and stress free gaming was for me. I even recently used XtendPlay in a competitive tournament for the first time, and not clinching to my controller made the gameplay more relaxing and I ended up doing much better.

I had my doubts about XtendPlay when i first got it like pretty much everybody else, but after using it i can say that it's the best gaming accessory I have! My hands have been feeling ten times better than before because the foam is so soft and comfortable. The airflow channels keep my hands nice and dry. It's also a great surface to put a phone or iPod on while playing a game. XtendPlay is the gaming accessory of the year!

My wife and I are over-40 gamers and we tend to have pain in our hands after playing for an hour or more. The XtendPlay has eliminated that. Now we just have to worry about looking up and seeing that we've been playing for 5 hours. Thanks XtendPlay!

- Matt S

This has been the best gaming investment EVER! I was having pain in my hands and shoulders and this cured it! I love this product! My brother was having the same pain and I told him about it for his ps3 and he was very skeptical and was giggling about it. In one week he can't believe his pain is gone. Thanks for the awesome product!

I'm an older gamer and my hands aren't what they used to be. With XtendPlay, gaming with a controller is a lot easier on my hands. I think it's great, and XtendPlay is a perfect name for it.

- Ralph S

Right away I noticed the benefits of XtendPlay. It didn't take me long to fall in love. I never want to hold onto that hard plastic ever again, and with XtendPlay I don't have to. Like practically everyone else on the planet I've been playing a lot of CoD: Black Ops lately. With XtendPlay, I can be fully engaged without slipping into bad posture that quickly gets uncomfortable. Even better: I noticed a spike in my accuracy. XtendPlay is the one accessory to rule them all!

Every controller's made out of this space-age plastic that just doesn't seem like it was made for human hands. After a couple hours your hands get sweaty, you get cramps, but the XtendPlay is like holding a pillow. It's vented. It helps me play longer and harder than I ever thought I could.

As a hardcore gamer I really enjoy XtendPlay. At first glance it looks a bit big, but after 3-4 minutes I totally forgot I had it. It's very comfortable in my hands, keeps the controller up. I get cramps from playing 6-7 hours, and this makes my hands feel wonderful. I fully recommend it.
- Ted B

XtendPlay does wonders in this gamer's life. It gives great grip with its foamy softness, and it keeps my hands from getting sweaty and sore. The curved edge rests right on my waist so I don't get sore from holding up my controller. It's one of the greatest inventions in history for a controller.

I am a very busy person, so when I get the opportunity to play on my Xbox 360, I usually play for several hours. After a while I found that my hands would start to cramp up and I would eventually have to stop playing due to pain. I decided to try Xtend Play and found that my hands no longer cramp when I play for a few hours. Now my free time is not wasted due to cramps in my hands.

- Cindy H

So XtendPlay seems a bit weird at first, but you know what? I use it, I use it every time I use my 360, and I'm gonna keep on using it! If you play long hours of strategy or RPGs as I do, you'll find that the XtendPlay becomes very natural very quickly. You won't even notice it, until you realize you've been playing nine hours straight.

I'm a "squeezer" when I play Madden and XtendPlay's fleXlite material allows me to play at the same intensity without having the pain associated with squeezing the hard plastic controller.

- Scot R

I picked up an XtendPlay for both my Xbox 360 and PS3. I'll admit I was skeptical at first since I've been using the 360 controller for 5 years and have always been happy with it. The PS controller has always left me wanting more. Much to my surprise the XtendPlay improves the feel of both controllers. For the Xbox it threw my aim off for about 20 minutes but once I settled in I forgot it was there. For the PS3 it improved the hand positioning and weight of the seemingly small controller. I would seriously recommend XtendPlay to anyone who games for extended periods of time.

- Stoph J

Honestly, when I first saw XtendPlay I was a bit skeptical. But now I can't imagine playing without it. As it turns out it completely solves a problem I accepted as a normal part of gaming.

This thing is *awesome* for Katamari!
