Gator Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 After receiving this item for christmas from my better half i have spent the las 4 weeks playing on line using this little item to kill ELF's online. I am happy to say the this item is a great little tool at a reasonable price. MFR is 50.00 us from Belkin. i am happy to say that it can be found by the frugal for around 20.00. This item offers up a whopping 16 buttons d-pad and scroll wheel which has 3 modes of function totaling 48 possible button combos. the ergonomic design makes the adjustment guite easy. The software is also very nice with no visible quirks at this time. I programmed operation flashpoint and BF1942 in to the profile manager in about 15 minutes. This item takes full use of the direct x controller calls and makes key assignments extremely easy. overall i give this unit a 8 out of ten stars for quality and usefullness. It still has a slight bug witht he keyboard type buttons wanting to double press sometimes but is just a sensitivity thing in learning how hard to press the buttons. Here are some attatched files to look at: Quote
GhostDog Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 Thanks for the review I allways both liked the look of it and the name. I just don't play enough FPS's to justify yet another gamecontroller. It allready looks cramped enough on my desktop Quote
=wWw=Zimster Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 Cool. Thanks as well I'm very tempted but was wondering, is the D pad analog? Thats one thing that I would love to have an analoge control. In otherwords is it contact sensitive? Quote
Gator Posted January 26, 2004 Author Posted January 26, 2004 The dpad is not analog. it is a digital contact pad.... Sorry... This is a great unit. Although it will take about a week to get used to it.... Quote
