SplitFish Updating Controller/Mouse Combo PS3 Controllers

SplitFish is unveiling its new Dual SFX Frag Pro and Dual SFX Evolution controllers at E3. Both controllers are comprised of separate mouse and controller sections that link together, with the former designed for shooters and the latter designed for racing games.


These guys upgrade the older models by cutting the wires. Both pieces of each controller are wireless, allowing you to avoid tangles during frantic gameplay.

There’s no word on pricing for these guys, but they’re due to be released in the fall. We’ll get more details and a hands-on at E3 next week.

SplitFish to Unveil FrevolutionX System at E3 2009

The Latest in Innovative Line of PlayStation®3 Peripherals Will Set Players Free

Zurich, Switzerland, Edmonton, AB-May 27, 2009 -SplitFish Gameware, Inc. (”SplitFish”) will give the game industry its first hands-on look at the Dual SFX Evolution and Dual SFX Frag Pro, the latest additions to its line of innovative controllers for PlayStation®3, at E3 2009. The new controllers are part of SplitFish’s brand-new Frevolution X System to be available this fall.

The Dual SFX Evolution and Dual SFX Frag Pro will be shown to media and wholesalers by appointment only. To schedule time to see these amazing peripherals, e-mail Michael Meyers at Michael@mmpr.com.
“We want to change the way people think about playing on game consoles. This FREVOLUTION X split-controller series was born from our customer and pro gamer wish list of control surfaces and designed around the natural macro/micro mechanics employed by your mind when playing action games. The result is an evolved, feature packed, customizable dual-controller setup that brings out the best in individual gaming styles,” said Jason Johnson, co-founder and head of creative development for SplitFish AG.

The Dual SFX Frag Pro improves upon the tremendously popular FragFX, adding a dual wireless system to the intuitive controller. An ergonomic, optical laser mouse provides PC-like accuracy and easy PS Home navigation, while the left-hand grip provides full SixAxis motion control. Like the FragFX, the Dual SFX Frag Pro includes completely customizable settings, letting gamers precisely choose their preferred sensitivity.

Designed specifically with flight, sports and driving titles in mind, the Dual SFX Evolution combines the intuitive action-gaming mechanics of two-tier accuracy control into one complete control interface. A right-hand motion/analog joystick controller joins an updated version of the Fragchuck made famous by the original FragFX. Together, the two provide the simultaneous macro and micro gaming control necessary for action games.

Both the Dual SFX Frag Pro and the Dual SFX Evolution include dynamic sensitivity adjustments, analogue stick swap ability, full support for all PS3 games, as well as PlayStation®2 games played on PS3, and upgradeable firmware.

    these are no better than rapid fire modded controllers. they give an unfair advantage over standard controllers and, as such, ruin it for the majority of players. all so somebody can THINK they are the best. human beings sh!t me sometimes. i hope they bring out counter measures in future games that limit the travel speed (and firing speed) to the controllers speed or something.

    the idea of these games is to have fun. idiot greedy companies like this one seem to forget this. we are not playing for money here…. just fun.

    this is just another way to cheat IMO

    @glennc No offense but these are not cheats I don’t use these nor the rapid whatever controller you are talking about. However the limits your talking about already exist both the rapid firing and the mouse are limited by software. A rapid controller can not shoot faster than a person using his hand, yes I can shoot just as fast as a modded controller, does it wear my hand out, yes who cares though it’s just for fun don’t play till you get carpal tunnel. A mouse is not faster than someone using the joystick it’s limited by the game it the software for the mouse isn’t based on circumventing the game settings it’s to set the mouse up properly.

    The problem isn’t the devices, it’s just you trying to find excuses.
