Splitfish motionFX Adapter for Sony PS2 Video Review

Topic:

Today I spent some time playing with the SplitFish motionFX Adapter for PS2 and shot some video of the SplitFish motionFX in use. With the motionFX on your PS2 you can get over your Sony PS3 SIXAXIS or Wii envy, at least if your envy encompasses the motion sensing capabilities of the new generation of consoles.

Connect the motionFX to your standard PS2 controller and you can turn it into a motion-sensing device that is ideal for driving games, but can be used for any game you desire. There is a bit of a learning curve with the SplitFish motionFX adapter when it comes to sensitivity and control, though the sensitivity is adjustable.

SplitFish edgeFX PS2 Mouse Controller Review

Topic:

FPS games on consoles are not ideally played with gamepads for many gamers. There are many of us out there who want a mouse for our FPS games. If you are one of these gamers longing for a mouse to make your shooters better, you are in luck.

Splitfish SensorFX adds Rumble to Sony PS3 SIXAXIS

Topic:

Gaming accessory company Splitfish already brought motion sensing to the PS2 controller. Now the bring rumble back onto the Sony PS3 controller with the SensorFX.

To avoid issues with Immersion’s Rotating Mass Patent, Splitfish uses technology with no moving parts. We are in contact with Splitfish about a photo of the SensorFX, but they do not have one yet.

It will be interesting how well this works. Splitfish is creative that is for sure. We got in contact with them back in 2005 when they introduced the eyeFX 3D glasses for the PS2.

Splitted PS2 and PS3 Controller GlideFX by SplitFish

Topic:

SplitFish GameWare added another unique gaming accessory to its line-up. The GlideFX is a controller for the Sony Playstation features separate left and right hand grips.

Instead of the right stick the GlideFX features a trackball. Of course this split-design reminds strongly of the Nintendo Revolution controller. What is missing of course is the 3D motion sensor.

SplitFish says it the GlideFX will be available for the Sony PS2 and later for the PS3 as well. They will introduce the GlideFX controller at the E3 2006. Read more

Splitfish 3D Shutter Glasses for Sony Playstation 2 Review

Topic:

Viewing games in 3D on the Sony Playstation 2 is possible with Splitfish Gameware Inc's eyeFX 3D Adapter.

I was pretty surprised to hear about the existence of 3D shutter glasses for the Sony PS2. So I was eager to try them out. The Splitfish eyeFX 3D is apparently the only real 3D adapter for the Sony Playstation 2. I could not find any other accessory like this on the market. Splitfish found some way to get existing games display shifted images to generate a 3 dimensional picture when viewed through the shutter glasses. The effect is quite amazing.
