    Hey guys just wondering if anyone has used things like the xfps adapter for the xbox? I want to have my pc and xbox all on the one desk to free up some space and i was thinking of getting one. Do they actually work, like would i have the same responsiveness that i would get from the pc?

    Well, I was looking into this a while ago and came across a new product that came out earlier this year. It's called the Scorch. Basically it's a numchuck with a toggle on it in your left hand and a mouse for use with your right hand. It can also be fully reconfigured for buttons etc.

    It's early days for this product and with some fine tuning on your behalf with the settings, seems to deliver some good results. The company seems to be delivering special firmware updates for particular FPS games too. The reason I haven't purchased one yet is that it's not compatiable with Turtle Beach headphones yet.

    If you're a bit of a gadget nut and don't mind playing around with the settings for a few hours, then this might be a good purchase.

    See what you think...

    This actually looks quite promising. One of my main worries is whether or not you can fully customize sensitivity and button configs. Like would the cursor ingame move with the same speed as the mouse or would the games sensitivity still have an effect? for example say im playing crysis on the pc and im moving the mouse all around the place like a mad thing, the game still keeps up with this erratic movement, but would this be the same i wonder if it was used on a console?
