Roccat Hiro gaming mousepad kisses goodbye to frayed edges

If you are a gamer who takes your vocation seriously (oh yeah, about that 9 to 5 gig that you have to slog through each day for five days a week? That's just a necessity in life so that you are able to do what you love when you reach home), then surely you would know that having the right kind of hardware is definitely one of the first and most basic of steps to take. After all, having all the skills in the world without being supported by decent hardware is not going to bring you to the top of any frag list for sure. Apart from a high performance rig, the choice of peripherals are also crucial – such as a gaming mouse, keyboard, and of course, the humble mousepad. German-born Roccat has just announced their latest Hiro gaming mousepad whose selling point is this – it boasts of edges that will never, ever fray.

This is truly a next generation mousepad that will boast a special kind of vulcanized silicone surface so that you will be able to experience unrivaled control and accuracy, in addition to a patented construction which makes sure the letdown such as fraying edges will be relegated to a thing of the past, while delivering maximum durability throughout your gaming career. Touted to be the first mousepad of its kind in the world that relies on this advanced new manufacturing process, the patented build process results in an inseparable "power bond" between upper and lower surfaces.

ROCCAT Founder and CEO, RenĂ© Korte, said, "With the Hiro, we are yet again bringing true innovation to gaming. Frayed edges are a thing of the past with this mousepad. And its groundbreaking, one-of-a-kind surface delivers speed and precision that will thrill even the most demanding gamers. We built the Hiro using only the most advanced materials and construction methods – so gamers can rest assured their pad will provide max battle durability and performance, mission after mission."

There is also an advanced Force Field protective coating that makes the Hiro's surface water resistant as well as easy to clean, making it far simpler to prepare yourself for the next round of fraggests. It measures 350mm x 250mm, making it large enough for those who play with low sensitivity levels, and has a thickness of just 2.5mm, now how about that?

Griffin Technology announces the MOTO TC Monster

Have you heard of Griffin Technology before? Well, if you haven’t an inkling of an idea as to just who they are and what they do, here is a quick primer to get you started on the right footing – Griffin is rated to be one of the world's foremost creators of innovations for everyday life, where their latest addition to the market would be their latest remote-controlled accessories known as the MOTO TC Monster, as well as the MOTO TC Racer, where both of them are tipped to roll out sometime later in the middle of November.

Both the MOTO TC Monster App and the MOTO TC Racer App will offer touch controls for iOS devices for the respective remote controlled cars, virtually placing you in the driver’s seat where you have the freedom and flexibility to create, record and replay custom routes. The MOTO TC Monster can be picked up for $59.99 a pop, where it comes in the form of a remote-controlled monster truck which relies on Bluetooth connectivity to iOS devices for its controls. Once you have downloaded the free MOTO TC Monster App, you are able to make full use of your “driving license” to so speak in a quartet of way :-

Touch: maneuver using a virtual steering wheel and throttle on the Multi-Touch display
Motion: control steering by tilting the iOS device
Slide: slide a finger across the Multi-Touch display to direct the truck
Tracks: drive using a series of preset routes already configured in the app, including figure eights and track laps

The MOTO TC Racer would not be a monster truck, but rather, a remote-controlled car which comes with an integrated RF (radio frequency) transmitter that paves the way for an easy set-up as well as automatic connection. Once you have downloaded the forthcoming MOTO TC Racer App, you can drive it using the joystick or tilt control. Which would you gun for?
