Meh I'm a 40 year old man with the reflexes of a 60 year old man. I didn't buy it to cheat at online games, I don't play them.

I bought it so I could use my PS3 fightsticks in Soul Calibur 6. The Brook adapter works(worked, past tense soon?) way better and is way more cost effective.

The Cronus might make you a little better at a game if you're already really good. If you're bad at the game like me, you're still going to be bad at it.

You say you don't play online games and bought the controller for a fighting game so how can you tell how much of a cheat it is? The parent comment said it has anti-recoil which is a huge advantage in FPS games.

You think even most cheaters will claim it's a fightstick adapter in particular?

Every cheater will buy a cheating peripheral, and then go around saying how it isn’t all that much of an advantage, and how they don’t even need it, and have some story how they got it for some other reason entirely and certainly not for the reasons stated on the box. And then continue using it.

The poster claims to somehow know how much of an advantage it is. Wonder how that knowledge was acquired? I am sure that too was perfect innocent and just “that one time”. Then why all the hand-wringing about these cheats getting blocked?

I don't think that's true at all!

They didn't even say they tested it online.

And you're making a claim that's impossible to disprove. Oh if they say they cheat regularly, they cheat regularly, and if they say they tried it out of curiosity, they're lying and they cheat regularly.

> Then why all the hand-wringing about these cheats getting blocked?

Because it's going to get blocked in all situations. Single player? Blocked. Fighting games? Blocked. Games with friends? Blocked.

They're not blocking cheats, they're blocking the controller itself. (If the block works on this model.)
