Splitfish mouse-input gets upgraded again. Really. The Frag FX comes after the not-so-successful Edge FX mouse-type input for the PlayStation 2. The design is similar to the Edge FX, the only difference being that this one is painted black. Apparently, Splitfish has managed to overcome the technical problems
that have previously prevented mouse-type inputs from working with all games.

You all know analog sticks are pretty useless when it comes to properly controlling "Halo 2" pixels. I know you blame everything but your skills. That doesn't mean there's no problem between your computer and your chair. Anyway, skills can be improved only if you have the proper tools.

The Frag Fx will improve your aim in FPS games. Multiple triple-tortilla-head shots in a row will fix your low self esteem and also make wussies yell "What the FPS!". The bad news is that you can also get "owned" by another Frag Fx user. You'll soon realize that FragFX is a step forward when it comes to solving virtual murders cases!

Like the EdgeFX, the FragFX improves your aim in FPS games. The device includes a separate right-handed mouse and detachable left-handed grip controller. Note to the hard-core FPS gamers: the FragFx will probably make former joystick users feel dizzy once they rediscover motion sensing abilities.

SplitFish is also compatible with Sony's recently announced Home virtual world. The string-attached version will be available in April for 60$. If you want the wireless version, you will have to cryogenize yourself until an undisclosed date. A Splitfish PS3 PC keyboard-input will soon also hit the shops. Maybe, but probably not. I think Cartman has it already.
