Splitfish FragFX Piranha Controller (PS3/PC)

Please note, I play on the PS3 and to my knowledge this mouse can only be used on the PS3. Also, a good mouse is only half the battle, you need a good mouse mat as well. I use the Razer Vespula Gaming Mouse Mat - Dual Sided To begin, this mouse is nothing short of fantastic. It has revolutionised my gaming. I have a lot of experience playing Call of Duty and consider myself to be a very good at it. I used to use the dualshock. On Team Deathmatch my ratio was around 2.30. I kept seeing people on the leaderboards with ratios of 5, 6 ,7 and even higher. Very rare ratios but still they were there. I knew that they must be doing something differently. So I looked on the internet and found that some people were using mice to play. I never even knew that could be done. I researched some mice on the internet and came up with this one. The sensitivity dial on it goes from 1 to 10. The trick is to get a good balance between this sensitivity and the one in the game (the one you change in options). Basically, the in-game sensitivity controls your up,down,left and right speed and the 'dialled' sensitivity (the one on the mouse) controls the mouse's responsiveness. When I play I am several feet away from a 37" tv. I sit on my living room couch. Through trial and error I have found that an in-game sensitivity of 9 and a dialled sensitivity of 3 work best. Anything higher I find is just too fast. Maybe your setup is different but I hope this saves you some time should you decide to purchase. The mouse comes with a dongle that in effect represents the left half of a dualshock. You have the option to button map should you so wish. I would stick with the default if i were you, save for swapping the grenade and crouch buttons with each other (much easier). This mouse is wired (which I like) and the build is lightweight so treat it well. The dongle may be a bit large for some. If you purchase this mouse you will not look back. It's magic is that it has great accuracy at great speed. It has at least doubled my ratio on team deathmatch (currently 4.69 and rising) and has been more than worth the money to me.

It works. Be worn that there is a small delay in working but menagable...

The thing that i hate more of this controller is the mouse... Who had the idea to make a mouse so small? If the mouse was the size of the wireless one would be much better but the reason i bought this one is because i do'nt like wireless hardware and wanted to play Killzone3 and even that, most of the times it sucks because of the mouse lag and the dificulty to handle it because of the size...

After 250 hours of bf3 the frag fx is still going strong. Makes me a better player for sure, I can't play without mine now! Far more accurate and faster than the normal ps3 controller . Not that good for the air craft but as a solider excellent !

ok

HAhahahahahahahahaaaahhhaaaaaaaaa, Crap.

This was a well packaged well made product, which is what I expected. I was looking forward to using this on the PC only, as I'm not used to keyboard/mouse. I plugged it in and set up the key bindings for the controller, but despite my best efforts the mouse would not work. I contacted Splitfish who then informed me that it wasn't optimised for PC, despite being advertised for PC use. Got a full refund but would have preferred to have the controller working for PC gaming. Very disappointing, apparently good product, poor description/advertising.
