Every once in a while, we see a gaming hardware company come up with something that you would want to look into – especially those who do have a penchant for the outrageous, there is the Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 Professional Gaming Keyboard which will surely blow your mind away. Basically, this particular gaming keyboard is enhanced with an advanced touch sensitive display as well as boasting modular construction to deliver an enhanced competitive gaming experience. The touch screen interface is known as V.E.N.O.M, where you are able to take control of your gaming environment, launch games or applications at the swipe of a finger, in addition to deploying custom macro commands, run a program chat, game, and alter media settings amongst others.

Darren Richardson, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc., said, “The S.T.R.I.K.E.7 is the first in a line of new keyboards and rounds out our PC gaming range of F.R.E.Q. headsets and R.A.T. gaming mice.

The asking price for the Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 Professional Gaming Keyboard is not cheap though – we are looking at a rather backbreaking $299.99 a pop.

This is for sure: if you’re a gamer seeking a primo wireless surround sound headset, now is a very good time to buy.

Tritton Xbox 360 Warhead 7.1. Surround Sound Headset

When one mentions the word “warhead”, most of the time we would think of a nuclear threat or something in a similar vein. Well, good to know that “warhead” is used in much more peaceful times now, especially so when it comes to gaming – and Mad Catz intends to wow the world with its Tritton Xbox 360 Warhead 7.1. Surround Sound Headset for the Xbox 360 (which can be told via the name alone, obviously). Mad Catz thinks that the Tritton Xbox 360 Warhead 7.1. Surround Sound Headset is the most anticipated product from its stable of devices to date.

First announced at E3 last year, it is being prepared to ship even as you read this, where Mad Catz claims that this is the only Xbox 360 headset in the world that will boast of a truly wireless chat experience. There is no need for you to fumble around with a chat cable, an adapter or dongle in order to talk. Not only that, it boasts of Microsoft’s very own security chip that enables one to directly communicate with the console. Are you looking forward to the Tritton Xbox 360 Warhead 7.1. Surround Sound Headset when it arrives early next month?

How would you change the Mad Catz MLG Pro for PS3

Mad Catz’ MLG Pro Circuit controller is aimed squarely at those who play games professionally — or would like to. We put the PS3 version of the handset through its paces and found that while it’s highly customizable, a lack of Sixaxis, force feedback and pressure-sensitive buttons made the gaming experience feel lightweight. Are you a gamer and did you buy one? You’ve had six months hard labor on this thing, so why not tell us what you thought of it and if you were asked, what would you change?
