Tiltboard provides SixAxis feeling

Talismoon is a gaming accessory company that has recently unveiled the second generation of its Tiltboard controller for Xbox 360 owners, bringing a semblance of what PS3 owners experience with their SixAxis controllers. Of course, if you want full motion sensing gameplay, there is no better console to pick up than the Nintendo Wii – if you can find one, that is. The Tiltboard features control buttons within easy reach of the gamer, where one button is located conveniently on either side of the wireless controller battery pack, giving gamers the ability to perform tilt adjustments there and then without stopping the game. This is pretty nifty for games that switch between stick and tilt controls, although it won’t be of much use most of the time. Installing the Tiltboard requires some degree of D.I.Y. knowledge, since you need to solder seven wires inside the Xbox 360 controller. The Tiltboard will retail for $39.99 when it is released next week.
