Scorch is the ideal console controller for PC gamers looking to move to the console.

Could this be? A functional, working, useful mouse controller thang for Xbox?!

Too lazy to read up on it, etc, just want to get it out here. Anyone hear anything on this?

That shit sucks.

The XIM2 is awesome, and the XIM3 is in development. Too bad it's fucking $200 to play a game like you would on a PC.

If that thing is really as sensitive, or close to as sensitive as a normal PC mouse, then there is no reason for them not to make cross-platform games anymore. Halo 3 PC anyone?

Well, their reason is that this isn't an official accessory and so it's still rare to ever come across one. If it was PC gamers vs console gamers, the console kids would be a lot more likely to get their asses ROCKED.

Looks like bullshit to me. I'm sure there are better alternatives out there for playing PC style on a console. Also, the above quote would never happen. Who the hell is a PC gamer and would willingly phase out their PC hobby to take up a controller? Once again, they are trying to kill the PC industry.

just watching the video, I can see lag between when he clicks and when it shoots, or turns.
