Basically a mouse for the ps3. Its supposed to make everything much easier to control. Basically a rather idiotic accessory if you ask me. If your going to go through the trouble to get this extra control just get the game on pc =) Games are usually easier and more manageable on pc. IMO

I've been looking at one of these or a xim (leaning toward the xim) for some of the ps3 exclusive FPS's like Resistance and Killzone. They had a booth at E3 and they were saying that a new version is coming out in September. Fragfx evo or something like that.

This dude sounds like a shill if he wasn't on crunchgear
msdmoney, nice point about PS3 exclusives. Also, ur right. Another one is coming out in Sep. and the v.2 likely will drop. The v.1 is still around $50 after being around about a year. Who knows what the retail drop will be on the v.2.
Here's a press release from splitfish about the new "dual fx frag pro"
http://www.splitfish.com/?uid=5kpj1hny7xn8xh06
(article also mentions a driving/flying controller). The only big improvement over the v.2 seems to be it's wireless...But it's still a mouse that you gotta drag across an immobile surface so wireless isn't that big an improvement.
I was actually waiting for the mLani MoBi...back in Feb! They kept delaying delivery. Were a no-show at E3 and now the company website is down (mlani.com)
Bigsexy, I can't keep up with all the hardware upgrades for PCs that seem to be needed every year anymore bec. I'm a CHEAPASS GAMER.

This is a good deal. NewEgg also has it for $73.99 Free shipping
The Frag works greatr for shooters like COD4.

there, just saved over 2/3, and you got nearly the same controller.
it's worked great for me for killzone 2 and call of duty

The PS2 version does not get the same response time when you play.
The PS3 Frag FX V2 works great. I love using the Frag V2 when playing shooters also. Much better then a regular controller. Splitfish worked out all the bugs on the PS3 Frag FX V2.

Does it work well with RTS too, like C&C?
