SplitFish FragFX PS3 Reviewed

Gerry Block at IGN has taken a look at a very unique peripheral for the PS3. Essentially, it’s a mouse/mousepad and gamepad, all interconnected. It would be ideal for first person shooters, where you could aim and shoot with the mouse, but control your character and other things with your left hand. Very odd looking device, but it was awarded a 9.1/10 score. Whenever they become available, you can score yours for $69.99.

Nearly every aspect of the FragFX is customizable. Software available for download from Splitfish.com allows for button assignment reconfiguring for cases in which games don’t offer strong reassignment options. The sensitivity and neutral point of the left-stick-dongle’s motion sensing can also be configured. Throughout our testing we encountered no situations in which we were unable to get the FragFX to do what we wanted it to do, and we give SplitFish a lot of credit for not using the FragFX’s unique design as an excuse for omitting features or capabilities.
