Product Description

 
Someday, you'll be able to have your every body motion detected by camera and transferred to a character or vehicle in a game, for total intuitive control. Until then, though, there's Microsoft's Freestyle Pro, an advanced gamepad with motion-sensing technology. ??Use the Freestyle Pro in joystick mode with motion-sensing on, and it responds to your hand and body movement, allowing for precision and freedom of movement simply by tilting the controller in different directions. Or switch off motion-sensing, and use the Freestyle Pro as a gamepad for greater speed and harder play. And if you're just that good, use both modes simultaneously for ultimate precision and freedom in your gaming experience! The Sidewinder Freestyle Pro is highly customizable, allowing you to fine-tune its sensitivity along each axis of movement and program game actions to hot-buttons. You can even save customized settings to game profiles, so you don't have to re-program the gamepad when you switch games. Th...

Mediocre Game-Pad

Date of Review:  Mar 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: Imprecise controller is not worth the price. Better pads are better for much less.
Review: When I first saw this game-pad a few years ago, I thought it was the sweetest thing ever and couldn?t wait to get my hands on it. Well it turns out that it isn?t quite as great as you would think.

Good Gamepad, Minus Motion-Sensing Technology

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2002
The Bottom Line: A great gamepad if you can find it on-the-cheap. The Motion Sensing Technology is useless.
Review: I remember when Microsoft Freestyle Pro gamepad came out about 5 years ago. I saw it in Electronics Boutique and thought, "Wow! That's pretty cool!" Although it was $70 I, thought it was worth it (I must have been out drinking the night before) and...
