Logitech has announced a cordless controller device for the Xbox video game system from Microsoft.
The Logitech Cordless Controller offers gamers lightning-fast response while delivering the complete functionality of the original Microsoft Xbox controller, says Mireille Davidson, Logitech`s SA country manager.
The Logitech Cordless Controller for Xbox is the newest member of the Logitech cordless controller family. It uses 2.4GHz cordless radio frequency technology - developed specifically for the demands of the gaming environment.
"This gives gamers complete freedom of movement anywhere in a room while also eliminating the `line-of-sight` problems encountered with other cordless gamepads," says Davidson.
Cordless Controller for Xbox features the standard Xbox button layout, with an 8-way D-pad and analogue pressure-sensitive buttons and triggers.
Its attractive design gives gamers a comfortable grip that can accommodate almost any hand size. What`s more, it offers dual vibration feedback for enhanced gaming realism, as well as proprietary power management circuitry with a 50+ hour battery life (with vibration).
Xbox gamers are no longer restricted by a cord that limits movement, as they can roam freely around a room while experiencing lag-free gameplay from more than 7m away.
If the controller goes out of range, or if it has not been used for more than five minutes, it goes into "sleep mode", saving a significant amount of battery life. Press any button, and the controller powers back on and is again ready for action.
Cordless Controller`s receiver includes two module slots for memory cards, a headset or other accessories. For competitive play, up to eight cordless controllers (using two consoles) can be used in the same area with no interference and no tripping over controller cords in a crowded roomful of intense gamers.
