Improved Combat Buttons with new PrecisionAIM featureGet a leg up on the enemy with the improved "Combat" buttons of the Call of Duty: Black Ops PrecisionAIM Controller. Located right where your ring fingers normally grip the bottom of the controller, these new larger and textured buttons are even easier to find and can be operated without the need to remove your fingers from other controller buttons. A simple selector switch allows for quick and easy remapping of the "Combat" button function. When you're ready to increase your headshot count, switch the selector to the new PrecisionAIM mode for improved accuracy. When a combat button is held with PrecisionAIM enabled, the movement of the on screen aiming is slowed, making it easier to hone in on the target.
Enhanced Quick-Fire TriggersNew quick-fire triggers now feature a shorter throw and better spacing to provide optimal response in all situations.
2.4 GHz Wireless Technology2.4 GHz Wireless Technology ensures an interference and lag-free gaming experience without the hassle of wires.
New Stealth DesignRed backlit analog sticks provide a distinctive look without affecting night vision. Exclusive Call of Duty: Black Ops design adds unique style while the soft touch surface and ergonomic firearm-inspired grips enhance comfort and control.

Customer Reviews
I'll start off by saying I never write reviews for any products I purchase, but I feel compelled to write a review for my fellow gamers out there seeing as there are hardly any reviews for the PS3 Black Ops PrecisionAim Controller.
The controller looks and feels great. The design and graphics are really top notch. I'll even go as far as saying it feels better than a stock PS3 Dualshock controller in your hands. The L2/R2 triggers are way better than Sony's triggers and they should take a page from MadCatz book in terms of the trigger design. The red glow illuminating the analog sticks gives the controller a nice touch.
Now on to the most important aspect of the controller. How does it handle during gameplay? The analog sticks actually perform very well when they want to work. Due to the included 'lag free' (lol) usb dongle this isn't the case. The analog sticks themselves don't really have any dead zones, but it's the connection between the controller and dongle wherein lies the problem. The connection isn't always consistent therefore causing a jagged flow to the movement you're trying to accomplish on the screen. If the connection would have been wired like its Xbox360 counterpart perhaps the translation from analog sticks to screen would've been smoother. Another missed opportunity was the placement of the (2) combat buttons on the back of the controller. The buttons work great if you have really small hands. I almost have to bend my fingers on the back of the controller in a crab shape in order to even get near the buttons. They should have been placed lower so as to provide a more comfortable, ergonomic position for the way you grasp the controller.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this controller as the key features didn't really come together as I hoped. We all know if you're looking at this controller it's because you want an edge in most probably a FPS game. This isn't the controller for that added edge. Unfortunately, it was a missed opportunity and not by that much. Take it from me, as I look for every edge I can take as I have Tritton AX720 Digital Gaming Headset and Gunnar Optiks S6126/2-C004 Catalyst Shredder Digital Performance Eyewear with i-AMP Lens Technology (Crimson) for long gaming sessions and hearing all the small audio details that escape regular TV speakers.
Hope the review helps anyone that's on the fence right now. FYI: Don't bother trying the Pro EX Controller for PS3 it's worse than the Black Ops controller (really big dead zones).
This review is for the PrecisionAim controller, not the game. This is a very nice wireless controller that has lots of options. It took me a while to master the different settings. Looks and function are top notch. This controller feels good in your hands. I have not had any problems with lag. They did a very good job designing this controller. Once you master this controller you should have an edge over your opponents.
