CTA Digital has announced a new peripheral that promises to add a whole new level of realism and excitement to first-person shooter games. Check out the PS3 assault rifle controller, a plastic rifle replica designed for hardcore FPS gamers.

 

 

According to the press release sent out by the company:

“Designed with modern warfare in mind, the Assault Rifle’s trigger functions as the R1 button for realistic “reaction” game-play. Each OEM Sony PlayStation controller button is represented on the Assault Rifle, including the D-pad, PS button, start and select buttons, and clickable thumb sticks for strafing, running, steadying the weapon, and exploring the game environment. Gamers can pull the trigger with one hand and press the controller buttons with the other to shoot enemy combatants and move through the gaming environment. The Rifle comes with a removable scope and stock.”

“The Assault Rifle also features a built-in speaker with realistic sound effects that can be turned on and off for a fun game play experience. By pulling the trigger, the Rifle emits single shot, three-shot burst, and fully automatic sound effects to complement the on-screen action that can be activated even when the Rifle isn’t synced with the PlayStation 3.”

 

The PS3 assault rifle controller will cost US$ 64.99 and will be available starting August 2nd.
