Review: Think Geek iPhone Joystick-it

Chicks with joysticks writes: "For all of the technological benefits of the iPhone’s fancy touch screen, it still has one major limitation: It doesn’t work with long fingernails. Typing is difficult with nails longer than a quarter of an inch, and nigh-impossible once they reach half an inch long. This is the plight of gadget-loving girly girls, transvestites and werewolves. A special iPhone stylus will make typing easier, and it will let you play games with control schemes based on swiping the screen, like Infinity Blade or Angry Birds, but this isn’t much help for action games that rely on a virtual joystick. At a quick glance the Joystick-it seems like a perfect solution. It’s a tiny joystick that adheres to your iPhone with a suction cup over the parts of the screen where the virtual joystick appears. It has a material on the bottom that affects the touchscreen just as a thumb would, and it’s intended to replicate the effect of an actual physical controller. Alas, the product simply does not work."

Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.

It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
