MSI Force GC300 Wireless Game Controller Pictured

MSI unveiled the Force GC300 Wireless game controller. The controller has universal compatibility with PC, Xbox, and PlayStation, with variants of the consoles dating back a decade. It offers three forms of connectivity—a low-latency 2.4 GHz RF that requires the included USB-C to RF dongle to be plugged in; Bluetooth, which is more convenient, and does away with this dongle; and of course there's USB wired connection, which should come in handy for the least possible input latency and charging its battery during gameplay.

The MSI Force GC300 Wireless controller packs a 600 mAh battery, with MSI claiming up to 20 hours of gameplay on a full charge. The controller has a typical layout, with two thumb-sticks, a D-pack, four action buttons, two sets of triggers, and ring triggers. It also packs a 4-pole headset jack for audio. The controller measures 148 mm x 111 mm x 68 mm, weighing 230 g. The Force GC300 should start selling from around October 10.

Activision, Bungie and Ubisoft Cracking Down on Input Device Hardware Modifications

The Call of Duty RICOCHET Anti-Cheat team announced earlier this month that their newly updated system was capable of detecting "third-party hardware devices that alter the Call of Duty gameplay experience" - this makes reference to a plethora of gaming input modification devices including the Cronus Zen/Max, XIM Apex and FPS Boost Strike Pack. All readily available from direct stores, Amazon and various e-tailers. These hardware modules are hooked up to a gamepad or mouse plus keyboard combination, and allow the user to bypass the legitimate control input detection on the host hardware, be it a games console or PC. Stock scripts and macros can be utilized - for example - to boost in-game aim assist to unprecedented levels, mitigate weapon recoil, and add support for mouse and keyboard in otherwise non-compatible games. Anti-cheat software suites have been unable to detect the extra layer of code, since it runs on an external device - until now.

CoD's security team elaborates on their cheat spotter: "Since our previous progress report, TeamRICOCHET has developed and tested a detection for third-party hardware devices that alter the Call of Duty gameplay experience. These devices act as a passthrough for controllers on PC and console and, when used improperly or maliciously, can provide a player with the ability to gain an unfair gameplay advantage, such as reducing or eliminating recoil. Testing is complete: This detection is deployed globally on all platforms. Users across PC or console who are detected to be using third-party hardware devices to impact the Modern Warfare II or Warzone 2.0 gameplay experience will first see a warning about the improper use of these devices..."
