Im not sure but isnt that feature shunned upon?, or since theres really no way of stopping it, they just allowing it for everyone to use so it evens it up?

iunno ive never used the feature, and dont see the fun in it!

[xcalixxryderx]

so now when gears 2 comes out I can never chainsaw again since I wont be using this mod

[Odb718]

xcalixxryderx what you just said is completely backwards.... and inside out... and devoid of all thought.
by not using this mod you can't chainsaw someone in a game that's not out yet...

Anyway, I just hope they have buttons on the bottom and that I can solder them to where ever I'd like. I was just looking at my wired controller and wanting to add Y & B under the right side and X & A under the left. This way it's a FPS controller and a regular 360 controller in one.

Can't wait to see pics of a prototype.

i think he said when it comes out and not that it will help you play gears of war 2 in advance. Anyway, this is some real crap. keep this shit off Live!! Maybe you could use this when you play with your friends locally or myabe some other way. Maybe they could make it so everytime u touch the rapid fire u would get shocked in the balls and maybe that way noobs wouldnt wanna touch it as much. anyway, im drunk

I really hope MS come up with a way to ban people with these.

I just don't understand why people use them It's like taking steroids to win a race... yes you may have come first but did you really win?

Anything that gives you an unfair advantage over other competitors is cheating, plain and simple.

The big problem won't be the advantage in chainsawing.

I guess the normal pistol will be extreeeeeeeemly overpowerd with this shit. Imagine how fast you will be able to "pull the trigger". No, this rapid-fire-shit would be a pain in the ass...

It makes me sick that XCM would even consider making this mod so simple for anyone to do just so they can make some cash. Xbox LIVE and gears of war 2 will be plagued with cheating 12 year old kids that got the replacement controller shell for christmas. I just cant wait to hear "owned" and "pwned" over and over again by these bastards firing 20 rounds a second from the pistol.

I'm from this camp. As someone whose ordered many cases and accessories and installed/modded with parts from XCM, this is disgraceful. I already turned down one little kid who wanted me to make a controller with turbo for him. Which leads me to say I think XCM is going to loose money on these. WHY.. because it's only cheating little kid's that want them and XCM gonna have to wait till momma ups the money for little billy's wireless controller and then whose gonna change it out? I'm not..

Shame, Shame on you XCM for putting yourself in a negative spotlight in the modding world. And if i'm wrong, so be it, but what good can come out of being banned from live for using one of these controllers? Not the kind of publicity that's needed. .02

Turbo controllers have been around since way before those whinning 12 year olds were even born. It's not like this is something new.

[poisonousjuice]

can't GOW2 and any other game put a cap on the fire rate of their weapons so they can't be fired off at an inhuman rate?

Look, I know this kind of "debate" if you will, will always have the "pro" and "con" side.. which I've basically seperated into two categories for those who support things like this and ones who don't.. it's CHEATERS and NON-CHEATERS.

We're talking about mass producing something that can be used on Xbox Live to cheat.

If the console manufactures or developers thought we needed this feature for gameplay, it would be there!

Defend that.

I don't care about turbo controllers for offline play. When it comes to Live, it should be an even playing field. Ban 'em all.

[wassco]

yea, i had a turbo controller for my playstation (made FF7 lil more fun in some areas) but yea online wise, i sure hope they can detect or limit it in some way.

[thcmagus]

Ahh yes the timeless question to turbo or not to turbo.. just a couple of quick things though..

It makes me sick that XCM would even consider making this mod so simple for anyone to do

They are just making the controller shell.. if you want to point fingers for simplicity of the mod thank acid mods : )

can't GOW2 and any other game put a cap on the fire rate of their weapons so they can't be fired off at an inhuman rate?

Yes.. infact I have tested one of these spit fire modded controllers and the only game Ive seen it do well at is COD4 .. most other games already have a ( hold down to fire at maximum speed ability ) so the turbo feature doesnt help

True. but that was before popular online play ( I remember my snes with my X-Band .. ) anyway yeah back in the good ole days there was plenty of turbo/macro controllers .. but really this feature cant really be defened..

And honestly I wonder what this controller is going to be anyway.. to do this simple mod all you need is a momentary button and some wire .. so are they going to be selling me a controller with a button already mounted? If they released a controller that was as capable as the first spit fire ( the one with the pic chip ) that can do macro commands.. then I would be a little more upset.. I mean I havent seen it yet.. but I bet someone out there is doing some nasty 10+ hit combos

One last thing.. if its xcm its going to be quality.. so let the fun begin

Apparently there is already a major 3rd party turbo controller..
