Bannco has announced the release of "x Scorch 360" controller, a "high quality wireless game mouse and grip for the xbox 360 and PC". Scorch is the twin to Bannco's FRAGnStein controller for the PS3... ...Scorch is also a full-featured wireless PC gaming mouse with extra buttons and a left hand control for WASD movements, making it a universal cross-platform FPS tool for both the xBox and PC gaming. The suggested retail price is $79.99 USD making it in the same price range as a regular PC mouse but with the added bonus of full xBox support....

This will give an advantage to first-person shooter players on Xbox Live. We all know that using a mouse is a lot easier than using a thumbstick...

 

[DaClownie]

Yep, looks like a comfy mouse to boot

Awww...

I got excited thinking a controller was released that was similar to the 360 controller but could be used on a PS3.

I Hate the PS3 controller!

EDIT: Actually.....this could be a great combo for CS:S

Someone posted the PS3 version, nice to see 360 got one too....might have to grab one and dominate some MW2 on 360. High sensitivity is no good on a thumbstick but needed(IMO) for an FPS.

An advanced aiming device. The console players will be drooling.

I noticed that the game still had the max turning speed of the controller joysticks... So unless developers start supporting this (giving some people a blatent advantage) than it's really a moot point.

This.

And chances are that would work on the PS3 also. The mouse function would anyway at minimum.

The buttons on the side of the mouse look like they'll get in the way.

I think the problem with these side buttons is that they appear to be sitting right under where your thumb should rest.

Kinda hard to hit the buttons in a fight if their under your pinky, lol.

I may just get this as it opens up the console FPSs to me, as I CANNOT do shooters with a damn thumbstick, it ain't natural, lol. I wonder is someone makes just the left hand thumbstick part for the pc, I've often thought that I have an awesome gaming mouse but no analog control for WASD.

I imagine you can turn up controller sensitivity which will help.

I know lots of people are going to be crying foul about people cheating with these...but I guess that they will just need to learn to use a real controller lol.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

I would use this for PC FPSs like BC2.

Tired of being tied to the keyboard. Would be nice to just sit back and only need a mouse on my lap or something.
