Ben was showing off one of the final prototypes at Games for
Health, well look boys and girls, here it is, a honest and true, built from the
ground up, one handed PS2 / PS3 / PC controller. This is not a hacked together
controller built in the basement of your friends house, this is a mass produced
product, and they are taking pre-orders. Price $129.95
Here is the description
eDimensional and Ben Heckendorn have teamed up once again and
created the Access Controller compatible with the Playstation 2,
Playstation 3 and PC platforms. Allowing total control of games with
one hand, the Access Controller represents a completely new way to play
all of your favorite
games. Featuring our unique, patented modular control design, each
control function found on a regular gamepad (including analog sticks,
D-Pad, shoulder buttons, face buttons, etc.) is accessible and built
into it's own module. Even better, each module can easily be rearranged
to suit any game style or need. Each module can be removed and replaced
with a single hand and simply pops in and out. The concave design rests
comfortably on a leg or a table and provides proper balance and
resistance for optimal responsiveness.
Originally designed by the renown modder BenHeck, the Access Controller has
already been featured in publications including Popular Science, Wired, Engadget,
and dozens more newspapers, magazines, websites and television shows. Now, we're proud to
be able to offer Ben's custom-made device as an official production-model gaming
accessory.
The Access Controller utilizes 2.4 GHz wireless technology for added
convenience.
Ben even includes detailed documentation for developing your own custom
modules and accessories! (Advanced users only)
We are now accepting pre-orders for the first limited production run on a
first-come, first-serve basis. You will not be charged until the item actually
ships. Estimated delivery is 8-10 weeks. Please continue to check this page for updates and additional photos.
A portion of all proceeds and select number of reserved units will benefit
Children's Hospital and Veterans Affairs Medical Centers.
