Well being a PC gamer i wanted to use a mouse for online shooters on PS3 so i bought the Splitfish FragFX Pictured beliw along with my sixaxis.

Design wise it's pretty damned terrible, i have large hands though not the largest, and found the chuck to be rather uncomfortable grip wise.

As for the mouse.... it is far too light, feels like a 3 year olds toy more than a mouse, the button 1 and 2 need pushing down way too much which causes missfire all the time, it also tracks pretty poorly even on a solid surface.

Before i mention performance, this is how i played using a SteelSeries Sensei on the PC to give you all an idea of what i can do with a good mouse.

I tested it on Black ops II which i do pretty ok with the sixaxis mostly, almost always positive K/D ranging from 1.5 to silly like 14.0.

To tell you all here that i performed far worse with this FragFX may surpruse you, but it is true, i took aim assist off and adjusted sensitivity attempting to find my preferred way to use a mouse, but that was never found, i had to fight with the mouse just to aim...

It feels horrible, it does not track smooth and the buttons are just pathetically Bad.

I rate this peice of crap 1/10

It shouldn't be too surprising, you know. You're translating mouse inputs to joystick inputs in such a way that the crosshair moves somewhat naturally. That's hard to get right. Also, gamer gear like this sometimes gets, well, skimped on in the quality department, let's say.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.
