Gioteck, the award-winning independent gaming accessories manufacturer, is giving gamers the chance to maximise their gaming potential with the launch of the SC-1 Sports Controller for PS3. Designed to offer excellent performance to the serious gamer, the SC-1 Sports Controller features four levels of sensitivity that can be programmed by the user to suit their individual playing style. Increased sensitivity with the SC-1’s ALPS thumbsticks allows passes and moves to be executed more accurately – in the most sensitive mode, the stick needs to travel only 20% of its usual distance.
The superior bumpers and 360o rotational D-Pad deliver second-nature directional accuracy and improve your all-round game, while the sleek design of the SC-1 is reminiscent of the classic adidas Predator football boot, so gamers can really immerse themselves in the action and provides a unique look that will be the envy of their gaming friends. The rechargeable built-in battery means you can maintain a competitive edge over your opponent for a longer period of time. Ergonomics including cut-out shoulders, a shallow body that makes it easier to grip and rubberised paint are ideal for the younger gamer, while also allowing you to feel the premium quality and comfort of the controller during intense matches. The SC-1 has also been designed with additional F1 and F2 buttons that allow a gamer’s favorite two button combination to be programmed into the controller, so you can master your very own moves at the touch of a button. This works for beat-em-ups just as well as your favourite sports sim. This customised programming of the pad also gives the benefit of longer battery life and lower rumble motor noise. The SC-1’s connection to your console can also be upgraded should Sony alter their firmware and the latest updates can be downloaded from www.gioteck.com should you need them.
