Check this thing out:

I know, it's a link. That's twice I've posted just a link. I think it's cool. Sorry if it's annoying.

Probably heard of it before. This is really handy if you like FPS's...Too bad it's 70 bucks.

They need to make a rifle version.

It sounds nice, but how well does it work...?

It is just a mouse that is attached to a stand. You'd have to get use to the button layout. I can see the scroll on the side and the trigger would be easy to push, but there is another trigger right below it. At a glance it looks like something you would use with a scope game, but it isn't a laser gun like for duckhunt, but just a fancy mouse. I think I'd be more efficient with a $70 optical mouse with 5+ buttons for Quake 3. Still a cool idea though.

Man with that thing i would be better than i already am in Unreal Tournament. I suggest Epic make a setting that is harder than Godlike, just for me, once i get my hands on one of those things.

Haha, Bun...Didn't you say that you thought you were awesome at that game, then you played on-line and got shafted??

I seem to remember that from a post somewhere...

Hmm..

Just rattin on ya, bud. I'm sure you're awesome. Let's team up sometime.

it's just a fancy joystick



Posted by: RAcastClarke

Yes, it is.

joysticks suck for fps games.

what are they thinking?



Posted by: sidefx52

the wrist position it uses is actually more ergonomic than normal mice

It would be 100000000000x better if the gun were sideways.

Would that be the gangster model?

Hah, yell at the company and force them to make one. HOld them up at gunpoint, using their product.
