it doesnt say here or on superufo if you are able to use more than 1 of these pads at a time. They look interesting but maybe a little too expensive

looks cheaply built, they didn't even spring for a proper usb plug, and personal experience tells me a pcb does not last long as a usb

Looks like it just replaces the controller's analog inputs with and accelerometer so seems a bit pricey for a third party peripheral, i'll just wait a month for the inevitable Chinese knockoffs for half the price and maybe give one a go.

So does this work with all current titles then? I.E. would I be able to play through Half-Life 2 or BioShock with this?!

Yes it should work with all current titles much the same the Microsoft Sidewinder with Motion Sensor does on the PC. But unless a game specifically utilizes this it wouldn't be that good and you would go back to a game pad right away! You know the wii wasn't inovative with this as far as I know Microsoft put it in PC controllers first!

Anyone really wants accelerometer for 360 you can mod a pad with this http://www.mrmodchips.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=44_59&products_id=465&osCsid=e7af0fe7adf03c934884d14803432561 all it does is connect to d-pad and give basic up/down/left/right but no speed sensitivity like Wiimote, this controller probably works the same way.
