PS3 first person shooters just got exponentially more enveloping: The PS3 Assault Rifle Controller
Gun controllers have been around for ages. My first taste of shooting games came way back in the day with the NES and Dunk Hunt. Many of you out there may share the same basic start to your gaming/shooting days. Those were the days, weren’t they? But we’ve moved on since those laughingly fake plastic gun days to this: The PS3 Assault Rifle.
The new PS3 controller is meticulously designed to give the gamer the look and feel of Modern Warfare 2, though the gun will work with any PS3 game with the provided USB wireless dongle. It’s interactive gaming to the max.
You see, my biggest peeve with the Wii is that the games basically suck. The graphics suck. And therefore, the overall immersion experience sucks. I want to be made to believe I’m really in the game. With the PS3′s graphics, a sick home theater, and this handy dandy Assault Rifle controller, I’ll be more in the game than ever.
Look for the PS3 Assault Rifle to drop August 2nd for a rather reasonable $65 USD.

The greatest first person shooter of all time is about to make a comeback! I know I’ve reminisced about the best James Bond game ever, GoldenEye (N64) before, but another rumor fresh out of the mill has my senses piqued and inner child remembering days past. The man with the message is Craig Peck. Mr. Peck apparently spent all of July – September working on scene layout and camera animation for the upcoming “GoldenEye 2010″, a remade, souped up version of the original. Shooters aren’t everyone’s favorite game. In fact, they’re not mine either. I’m more of a Forza 3 kinda guy. But GoldenEye 64 was different. It was the FPS to emulate in the late 90′s and to some degree even today. After his three month jaunt on this secretive GoldenEye project, Mr. Peck claims to have moved on to working on LA Noire, an upcoming title from Rockstar. All I can say is I sure hope something materializes from this rumor. I don’t currently own a Wii, but a GoldenEye part 2 may just break me. Anyone else super stoked?
