Introduction

[div style="display: block;" class="article_iw tm nf"][div class="imgwrapper"][div class="border"][img src=";http://www.cgdata.com/users/7592/articleimages/813/Review_Banner.png"][/div][/div][/div][p class=" tal" style="display: block;"]Weeks before MW2 was launched, Madcatz announced their brand new line of gaming peripherals and on that line was the Modern Warfare 2 Combat Controller. It has been hyped up a fair bit so I decided to put it to the test and write up a review to let you, the Cybergamer community, get an indepth look into this sleek controller.

Pretty glad I didn't get one, the thumbsticks dealio would just infuriate me just like the PS3 controller does.

Good view bud.

As if you would fuck up the most important part of a controller up.. They dont look too bad though, just put a little bit of blue tac on the top of them..

Never will someone with one of these be able to outshoot me its the hardest fucking thing to use besides its shape is too different

sold to a mate after 2 days

Good review Dalla.
Was keen to see a review for these, it seems like they had some good ideas but the final product fell short.

Bio Acid says:10:26am 23/12/09:

Yer I agree Rohizle, the concept of the controller did seem like a great one however when it all come out of production it seem's it just didn't make the cut.

Great review btw ~dalla, hope to see some more coming soon.

I tried playing COD on PS3 and sprinting was terrible, giant mushroom control sticks.

Skepz says:7:27pm 28/12/09:

Hmm, glad I didn't get one. Them sticks look awful. Great review dalla.

Very nice write up dalla, they looked good and sounded good in theory but i didn't think it would be that good.
