    Hi all.

    I sourced some great extended thumbs ticks for my ps4 controller but a reorder for my new xbox controller (advertised as fitting both console controllers) does not fit at all. Nearly hangs on and not a solid fit for intense movement..

    Anyone recommend decent thumbstick extensions? The high versions... about 3/4 inch high...

    Thanks

    You could buy control freaks.

    I bought these before for PS4 and found the hard material pretty crappy.

    Sourced these this morning...

    Got something simular for the PS4 and they worked perfect, just hope they fit much better than the previous "fits all" versions!

    Get these. Got some a while ago to use on my Xbox One and PS4. Well worth it.

    Thanks...

    However, I found that the higher thumbsticks work perfect for the PS4 but do not secure at all to the Xbox one controller, they barely hand on - not a snug fit at all.

    I presume the default thumbsticks on both controllers are not an identical size?

    These one's are only a really small bit less secure on the Xbox One than on the PS4. They don't fall off easily anyway.
