Hmm, not sure about this

MAG II Wireless Magneton Induction Controller, it's a gun you use to play FPS games. Priced at £89.99 it's a bit expensive, but does it work, will it improve your game playing or just get you killed a shit load more?

I'd still prefer mouse and keyboard.

I think the oculus rift might be a gimmick, only time will tell.

As for the gun, it might work fine in SP, but MP where it's a lot less forgiving?

If i could get a hold of one for nowt id give it a go, im not that good at FPS as i used to be so it'd be interesting it if it worked for me.

i very much doubt it though seems a bit gimmiky to me

I tried the Move with KZ3 which was supposed to be great and it was all right... It was functional, but I've just got too many hours logged with a controller, so to throw away all that "training" seems stupid.

I imagine this one will be the same. And it's a steep price tag to fall back to the bottom of a learning curve.

Plus I imagine it's like steering wheels for racing games: some games it will work great for, some ok and some meh. Where as all games are tested with a default controller.
