dreamGEAR's Lava Glow wireless PS3 controller will blind your enemies

Sure, your average PlayStation 3 controller is functional... but is it super ugly? Enter the dreamGEAR Lava Glow wireless controller -- a peripheral so heinous looking it can likely be used to visually stun your opponents. The liquid-filled, glowing controller transmits on the lovable 2.4GHz RF band, and is said to be the "most comfortable controller ever created," according to the company's modest PR. The Lava Glow is also jam-packed with "motion sensing gyroscopes," which somehow provide you with "complete latency free game play," though we're not sure how. The controller comes in red or blue, and is available now for $34.99 -- just be sure you don't spike it against a wall and get lava juice on your carpet.

I'm not being sarcastic. I'm serious.

So basically, this thing both rumbles and signals airplanes?

[whitetiger03 @ Oct 17th 2007 8:54PM]

damn...nice...is the motion sensing better then the PS3 controller? and most IMPORTANT of all is does it have rumble?

Hahaha, this is the funniest controller I've seen in my life, it looks like a $2 water pistol toy.

OMG the battery ran out! I SWEAR I CHARGED IT COMPLETELY LIKE 20 MINS AGO!"

Now wait a minute, if it glowed brighter the higher your ranking in an FPS or racing game it could have some value. When playing with a bunch of friends you'd always know who was in first place. That could be useful, no?

If that's a PS3 controller, why is there no "PS button" in the middle?

Heinous?? lol who is this writer.

These are actually pretty sweet controllers... really trippy in the dark, and much more comfortable than sony's dual shocks.

"the most comfortable controller ever created"?
Apart from the analog stics are in the wrong place. The 360's controllers are much more ergonomic.
