Experience Wireless PS2 Driving Action in the Palm of Your Hand with the Fanatec Speedster Controller

Fanatec, a leading brand of high-end input devices for game consoles and PCs, today introduced the Fanatec Speedster Controller for PlayStation/PlayStation 2.

With its Twist°n°Turn axis and analog triggers, the Speedster Controller gives gamers an unparalleled driving simulation experience from a gamepad-style controller. The Speedster Controller is perfect for gaming enthusiasts who love car, motorbike, Jet Ski, ATV, and snowboard type games and is set to begin shipping in North America on November 1, 2006.

While the Speedster Controller can be used as a regular PS2 controller, gamers looking for extra control and realism from their racing games can unlock the Twist°n°Turn axis, giving the controller a wheel-like function full of accuracy. The controller can be locked or unlocked in mid-game, allowing players to switch between running and driving in games like Grand Theft Auto. Additional true analog triggers deliver a whole new level of precision to acceleration and braking as gamers can tune the sensitivity and dead-zone of the controller as well as create specially timed macros.

The Speedster Controller is wireless and uses 2.4 GHz RF technology (30 ft range) with no latency. It also includes the Play°n°Charge kit, with three rechargeable 2000 mAh batteries and a five meter USB charging cable for continuous game play, giving gamers a new level of freedom within their gaming environment.

In Q4 2006, adapters needed to play the Speedster Controller on PlayStation 3 and PC will be available.

Additional features include:

Ã*ˆ Tuning function with digital read-out to adjust sensitivity, vibration level or to eliminate

"dead- zone"

Ã*ˆ 4 blue LEDs indicate steering and gas/brake movements

Ã*ˆ D-pad with 8 independent buttons for accurate diagonal movement which is ideal for

fighting and arcade style games.

Ã*ˆ Automatic Power Save mode to extend battery life
