eDimensional - a developer and manufacturer of innovative gaming accessories - has announced that the new Access Controller, designed by renowned modder and product engineer Benjamin Heckendorn (also known as BenHeck) is now shipping worldwide.
The Access Controller features a patented new modular control design; each control function found on a regular gamepad (including analog sticks, D-Pad, shoulder buttons, action buttons, etc.) is accessible and built into its own slot and positioned in the layout of a hand.
Additionally, each module can easily be removed and rearranged to suit any gaming style or need. The concave design rests comfortably on a leg or a table and provides proper balance and resistance for optimal responsiveness.
Disabled gamer James Mannhalter of Alabama writes, “Video games became a way for me to escape the pain of my injuries, the grueling horror of my recovery, and the depression that sometimes comes with a life long disability…[Gaming] can be very important for someone like me.” Echoes Michael L., “I am in the Army and have served over in Iraq 3 times. During my 3rd tour, I was struck by a 400 lb. IED, leaving me without a left hand and right thumb, along with 39% of my body burned. I love to play video games, but haven't been able to since the accident.”
eDimensional CEO Michael Epstein says, “We’re so pleased to finally be able to make the Access Controller available to everyone who has been patiently waiting for it’s release. It’s been a long, but rewarding process and the response thus far has been outstanding. We look forward to enabling even more individuals to experience the thrill and enjoyment of gaming.”
The Access Controller is also great for any gamer who wants the convenience of being able to reconfigure the controls to suit their specific RPG or FPS gaming style, arcade-style gaming, or those who like to multi-task while gaming.
A portion of all proceeds from the sale of Access Controllers will benefit Children’s Hospital and Veterans Affairs Medical Centers.
The controller is now available at www.eDimensional.com for $129.95 and includes support for the PS2, PS3 and PC.
