This thing looks pretty cool. I'm wondering if you have to nail it down to have it work though. Anybody ever used one? How well does it work?

I used one at my local Microcenter and was impressed. I really thought it was gonna be a generic device, but it gave realistic feedback when it came to both objects in the game and gunplay. The main drawback for me is the price. I heard somewhere that there was going to be a version for $100. That sounds like the one for me.

That thing just looks....weird. I'll try it, but I don't know if I'd want to use it often.
