| Saitek launches the P990 Dual Analog PC game pad The Saitek P990 has been developed in response to feedback from PC gamers and features the excellent design and ergonomics for which Saitek is renowned. The P990's smooth-control dual analog joysticks are complemented by an 8-way D-Pad, eight conveniently positioned buttons and four easy reach rapid-fire shoulder triggers for total control, allowing every game to be played in comfort and style. The P990 also offers improved grip and backlit controls, making button selection easier in low light environments. The four shoulder triggers and control layout make the P990 immediately familiar to casual gamers who come from a console gaming background, while the FPS button - a new development in Saitek game pad design ? also gets them instantly into first-person gaming by loading a pre-programmed software profile to configure the pad controls. FPS games are set to be the most popular game genre this Christmas, with the release of blockbusters like Quake 4, Call of Duty 2 and King Kong, and the Saitek P990 is the perfect pad to play them with. Gamers no longer need to rely on a separate mouse (typically used for movement control or point-of-view control) to play their first person shooters or role playing games, as all mouse functionality is available using the pad controls. The Saitek P990 is also fully programmable using Saitek's Smart Technology Software to deliver the complex functionality demanded by the most dedicated PC gamer. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Game News :: home page |
