How Modded Controllers Adapt To The Changing Industry

By Jason Moddley


The Call of Duty, Halo, and Gears of War franchises all plan to put out new titles in the near future, changing the gaming landscape once again. The video game industry moves at an extremely fast pace, and the turn around on new products is becoming faster each year. Halo: Reach, Gears of War 2, and Black Ops have all become extremely popular games, and their success has led to a rise in popularity for modded Xbox 360 controller companies. Companies that offer modded controllers are constantly looking at the gaming industry and adapting to new games, new consoles, and new styles of game play. Therefore, you can expect to see updated mods that are designed with 2011's new games in mind.

The rapid-fire mod has a worthy place with the new titles. The rapid-fire modded Xbox 360 controller allows you to operate semi-automatic weapons, such as pistols and bolt-action rifles, with fully automatic firing rates. This unique function makes rapid-fire one of the most popular mod types on the market, and subsequently it is sure to be updated for the pending releases of the new titles.

Similar to rapid fire, the fast reload modded Xbox 360 controller is a highly popular gaming accessory because of its unique advantages. Standard fast reload controllers allow the gamer to reload their weapons at an increased rate; this is accomplished by skipping the game's programmed reload animation. This popular mod also commonly features rapid-fire as well, and accordingly the benefits of this controller are exponential.

Both the rapid-fire and fast reload mods are already being utilized with today's popular first-person shooters, and it is a very favorable bet that they will be updated to equate the game play of upcoming releases. There are also game specific modded controllers, such as the Gears of War 2 Active reload that some modding companies are manufacturing, and one can await to see some new controllers of this calibre for either the new Gears of War, Halo, or Call of Duty games.

Modded controllers are not limited to the Xbox 360 console however; there are also a variety of modded PS3 controllers that work with your favorite PS3 games. A modded PS3 controller gives gamers the same advantages enjoyed by their Xbox counterparts. So no matter your console or game taste, there will be mods and controllers that are designed to function with the new game releases.
