Robot Monkey Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Logitech has a new wireless controller, the Logitech Cordless Precision Controller. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, it still has the Live problem -- the headset must be plugged into the receiver dongle. MSRP is about $50. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Good to see that they are making it smaller...the original was larger than the original stock Xbox controller. I also hope they adjust the tension on the analog sticks as the old one was way too loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjaw Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 My Logitech wireless is the best made of all the one's I own. It's very good to see them take another stab at the design as that was the previous unit's main drawback. I also hope they adjust the tension on the analog sticks as the old one was way too loose. Yes, even better would be the ability to adjust the tension on the sticks (and the triggers). I'd buy this in a second if it offered that.

Orpheus Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 The new logitech PS2 controllers have much better sticks, hope this carries over. I think i'll be giving one of these a try. On a side note, logitech has a cordless cell phone headset that I've seen online for as low as $70 that looks really promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjaw Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Is this out now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted March 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Ouch, $100. If I could pair it with a truly good wireless controller, I'd be tempted to replace the designed-on-Sedna MS headset. I'll wait it out though. For $150 I could get a GC and a wavebird or two. Not that I should be spending money on any new game system. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rustyjaw Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 I found this Logitech controller at CompUSA Is looks slightly different, but maybe it's just the angle of the picture. At $25 I'm willing to give it a shot. I wish there was a photo of the triggers, just curious about where they are and how they are shaped. EDIT: Doh! that CompUSA model isn't wireless!

I really doubt we will see a wireless headset from anyone for under $70. Everytime one makes a release date, it disappears before too long.

rustyjaw Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 So I went down to CompUSA to look at the Logitech Precision Xbox controller (the one with a cord), and it's the same size as the big-ass PS2 wireless one. I looked again at the images of the Wireless one and the corded one, and they are different, but I'm not sure if the wireless one is really significantly smaller. But that's hard to tell from images. EDIT: you be the judge: first the cordless and the corded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
