Delta Six controller brings fragging to life, worries your friends

Chances are you know someone who takes their CoD a little too seriously — well, this peripheral is for them.

A built-in accelerometer is used for aiming, while the faux recoil and acting out a reload will put you closer to real combat than an appearance on Stars Earn Stripes. The hardware also features a scattering of pressure sensors — allowing you, for example, to bring up the sights by meeting cheek with gun body, or if you’re feeling lazy, squeezing the side of it instead.
