okay well I've been meaning to unbox this forever this is the
0:05
griet take control with gripit the
0:09
Competitive Edge so gripit is basically little uh rubber doohickeys that go on
0:16
top of the analog sticks on your controller so this is an Xbox 360
0:20
wireless controller but you can see it is compatible with both PS3 and with
0:25
Xbox 360 it is eco-friendly Packaging
0:31
so it's not the Frog isn't the only thing on here that's green and uh this
0:35
is the softest material with the most grip possible so step one okay okay why
0:41
don't we show the instructions when we're actually putting this on cuz I'm going to just put this on my Xbox 360
0:46
controller this is going to be an unboxing and installation guide so I
0:50
assume the um the black ones here are
0:54
the 360 ones so I'm just going to kind of rip this and Hope it comes apart in
1:01
some meaningful way all right here we go here we go that's not so bad it's not so
1:06
difficult I can unbox this unbox anything all right so these are the
1:11
softest most grippy materials possible okay so step one you
1:18
take the griet and you put it on top of the analog stick so I'm going to just
1:22
sit down so as to better be able to
1:26
install complicated Hardwares here okay
1:29
so you uh you flip it inside out so this is this is the griet itself it's got a
1:33
little uh frog foot on the top of it so you just take it and flip it inside
1:37
out okay and you take that you position
1:41
it over the analog stick on your controller okay so that's step one step
1:46
two is to pop grip it back over the
1:51
original to the original position so it wraps around the analog stick okay so
1:56
let's do that
2:09
hold on let's just kind of give it a bit of a stretch
2:13
here make sure that we've got it uh fully gripped and
2:19
wrapped there we are okay so now it's on there oh it's
2:25
definitely softer and more grippy and there's like a bit of a a cushioning to
2:30
it now because the top of the griet is flat whereas the top of the regular
2:35
analog stick is kind of concave so it's
2:38
you know kind of cushioned now okay step
2:41
three is look really
2:46
scary like her
2:50
wow prepare to have the best analog control performance for any video game
2:56
okay so hold on where did my other one go oh no did I lose it
3:00
I lost it I lost my other griet I
3:04
couldn't hold on to it ah there it is
3:08
how ironic to not be able to hold on to a grip it now the blue ones I don't know
3:13
if they're actually different why don't we take the blue one out and find out if
3:16
they're different because if you could buy one pack and use both blue and black
3:21
on like two Xbox 360 controllers then that adds some
3:27
personalization as well as some uh
3:31
additional grippiness okay so these appear to be the same so I'm going to be
3:36
a rebel and I'm going to take a blue one
3:40
and I'm going to put that on my Xbox controller
3:44
too oh I didn't get it on good enough hold on hold
3:48
on there we go just
3:51
no oh I wonder if the blue ones don't
3:54
fit now it should fit should fit okay just kind of wrap that around there yeah
3:58
there we go Okay so that's my Xbox 360 controller blinged out with grip it
