A new wireless PLAYSTATION 3 controller is making its way to gamers this spring. mLani Studios will be offering the MoBi, a wireless PS3 controller designed for first-person shooters. As you can see from the picture above, it’s a mix of a mouse and thumbstick controller. Why would you want to give up your tried and true DUALSHOCK 3 controller for it? mLani says it’s more accurate, can be programmed, and can be also used on PCs.
mLani explains:
"The patented split-grip mLani MoBi is compatible with all games, and features a completely customizable PS3 controller button set. With a right-hand mouse for targeting prey and a left-hand grip for full motion control, the MoBi is the most advanced controller in the world. Complete programmability, digital sniper buttons and upgradeable firmware provide unprecedented levels of customization. The MoBi is also a full featured wireless PC gaming mouse with extra buttons and left hand control for WASD, making it the world’s first universal cross-platform FPS tool for PS3 and PC gaming. The MoBi is the ultimate console controller while also offering an ideal PC first-person shooter experience.
Each button is configurable, and the MoBi’s digital R1 and R2 make it the most accurate targeting system available-no more squishy button presses! The 2000 DPI, 500Hz refresh rate low-lag laser mouse exceeds the standards of the PS3′s abilities and meets all high-end PC mouse needs."
