alright im excited that they have new Dual SFX FragPro! i believe its like a frag fx without the cord hopefully its more accurate than the older version!..the cord of my frag fx v.2 is really annoying! sometimes i want to break

those cord just to feel im aiming in fps gaming! i bought my first frag fx when i got my cod waw 2 days later because im aiming to to get the best kill and rank in the game! but one the things annoys me is the sensitivity on the right side of the nunchuck! it keeps blocking my thumb finger then i keep changing the sensitivity accidentally! it mess up my gameplay -_-

my frag fx is still helpful in some games like battlefield 1943 but its has a problem now it keeps turning on some weird sound on it..

[jaaSumbra]

I was extremely disappointed with my first FragFX pro controller, the aiming was very accurate, and I always updated to latest firmware, and set it up 100% as I should.

Also every time there was a firmware update, the aiming got worse, also the acceleration within the sensitivity sucked as well, no matter if it was set to level 1 or 9. The customer support sucked as well, they promised a money back guarantee, if you weren't satisfied, but I never got an answer to my many emails.

with time, the aim got a little bit better, but I still don't get the many extremely positive reviews which this product got. I really hope it will be better this time, cause the only games it so far has been usable with, has been CoD.

any people had any other experiences with a Split Fish Frag FX pro controller?

[zDD]

Well, it seems some of you had tough luck with your FragFX, because pretty much everyone I know (alot of top teams/gamers) that uses the FragFX is very happy with it. I can't see myself playing with any other controller for FPS gaming.

As for the FragPro... all I can say at this point is WOW :-0

The Evo is going to be great any other games, action shooters, sports games, etc.

And yes, I've tested and used all of the products, so I can speak first hand about them.

Also, just so you guys know... just about all of the top gamers on the COD4 /COD5 leaderboards for kills use a FragFXv2. Most of them won't admit it, but I know most of them. :-)

i LOVE the fragfxv2. my k/d ratio is much higher now that I use one. i get faster headshots with the frag. i just downloaded the latest tweak utility and turned up the button senstivity on it and it works even better.

i want the new fragpro...waiting for wireless version for a long time. anymore info you can share would be awesome. thx

Unless the console comes with this it will never be fair for those who use the regular controller like they should. I hate to think someone fragged me online using this.

[PS3 News]

ROFL! zDD and xMikeyx are the same person, same IP, and from Splitfish! Patheic indeed. They should SPONSOR us, not join with multiple accounts to promote their products spamming our boards.

Does this guy seriously think he can put something over on the PS3 News Staff? PWN'D!

[semitope]

I say ban all splitfish news on the site as punishment!

I really am starting to dislike the idea of something like this. The challenge of FPS on consoles is partially the use of the standard controller to aim and move. I call for a ban on this, seriously they should put in a ps3 controller detection anticheat system.
