Anyone that has ever spent time gaming on an iPad knows how glorious and in turn, frustrating the experience can be. While some games lend themselves to the tablet's touch and tap interface, other games, such as first person shooters and flight sims can be a torment to play, as one wrong move of that virtual control pad can translate into a game-ending loss of tragic proportions. The folks at Ten One Design Understand this, and accordingly have come up with an elegant solution to help you get your frag on. Ladies and Gentlemen: Meet the Fling tactile game controller for iPad.
Ten One Design's Fling attaches to your iPad using a pair of transparent suction cups. Made out of transparent plastics, the diminutive device is designed to disappear into your iPad's screen as soon as the screen is turned on, ensuring that you never miss any more of the iPad's screen real estate than you would if you were just gaming with your fingers. Thanks to Fling's patented touch interface and joystick combination, iPad gamers can, provided the product is as awesome as it appears to be, finally have the the tactile gaming experiencing they've been longing for. For games like Heavy Gunner that require two directional pads to get the job done, iOS gamers can even employ to Flings to ensure their pew-pew is all it can be.
Fling is currently available for pre-order from Ten One Design's e-commerce site.
