MonsterGecko, LLC, designer and manufacturer of high-quality performance gaming accessories for PC and console game systems, today announced it is now shipping its PistolMouseâ„¢ FPS, a high-performance mouse for first-person shooter (FPS) games. The PistolMouse FPS provides gamers with faster reaction speed and precision optical tracking. It has realistic pistol styling, dual aluminum triggers, an over-sized selectable scroll wheel, ergonomic hand position, and a high-resolution 800 dpi optical sensor.
"With the highly-anticipated releases of next-generation first-person shooter games, we are seeing strong interest in new controller designs like the PistolMouse FPS," said Ain McKendrick, co-founder and CEO of MonsterGecko. "Our pre-order demand was so great that we actually sold out of our first shipment before it even arrived and we delayed our shipping announcement to wait for additional units to come in."
Next-generation first-person shooter (FPS) games have raised the bar in cinematic-quality visuals and realistic environments, giving new life to the first-person gaming experience. FPS players are interested in having the best systems and peripherals to play these new games, and the PistolMouse FPS gives gamers the competitive edge they are looking for. Most mice, joysticks and gamepads require full-hand motion or repositioning of fingers to execute certain actions and don't provide the resolution or precision needed for first-person shooters.
The unique patent-pending base design of the PistolMouse FPS incorporates an offset optical sensor for quick response with simple wrist action. The PistolMouse FPS includes a primary and secondary grip trigger, plus an ambidextrous selectable thumb scroll wheel for both right and left-handed players. By not having to reposition fingers to reach these controls, the PistolMouse FPS design gives gamers instant activation of four separate actions that can be customized in most games. Combined with the precision of a high-resolution optical sensor, and improved ergonomics, the PistolMouse FPS allows gamers to one-up their opponents with unmatched reaction speed.
Whether one is new to FPS gaming or a hard-core gamer looking to improve his or her performance, the PistolMouse FPS meets the needs of all players. Its innovative design and comfortable handling makes it easy to adapt to, and provides gamers with a more immersive experience in both single-player and multi-player environments over traditional mouse designs.
