Comfort Stylus Review

Posted Apr 11, 2006 at 12:25PM EST by QJ Staff

IGN has posted a review of the Comfort Stylus. It's a combination of rubber and a paperclip that allows you to mold it to your finger for better gaming. With the advent of touch screen gaming, it seems only natural to create a comfortable way to play games. Holding a tiny stick in your hands will cause cramps after hours and hours of play, but with the Comfort Stylus that shouldn't be a problem.


With constant flexing and moving it's only a matter of time before the metal inside snaps. Just like bending a paperclip, it only takes a few times to break one in half. As seen in IGN's review, the Comfort Stylus does break with a lot of use. Thankfully, because of the price, it's not prohibitively expensive. Using a stylus like this can only enhance gaming and bring in new players that feared getting cramps from holding the usual tiny twig.

so someone finally made a product, looks like it would take some getting used to, even for a PDA, but shoudnt this be in the DS section?

Seems like you would have less control with that. It would be like using the thumb control with Metroid. It's not as precise. And it also seems like that would want to bend when you press it.

Is there really a rash of hand cramping caused by stylus use in the world? I mean if this is really your worst problem then I suggest you put the game system down and go do something constructive... like buy breath mints for you dog.

# jesus christ, shut up!Guest 2006-04-11 15:33
Shut up you little psp fanboys! Does it really matter that much where news goes? seriously. The respective sections remain for the most part seperate but the second anything seems out of place you jump all over pspupdates. Just shut up already and mooch off of the hard work someone else does so you can enjoy your shiny little psp. urgh, I hate you people.

# what was that?Guest 2006-04-11 15:47
Heh, "and" was the only actual word in that mess. I agree with #10, you children can get worked up over the stupidest things sometimes. The more I think about it the more I kind of want to kick #11 in the face. I hate stupid internet jargon. USE REAL WORDS!!!

To #14:



Have you ever played a PSP game? Or are you too busy playing "Mario Kart" instead of Wipeout Pure?



Lol.



The DS is ok but the PSP owns it.

# 2 serious!Guest 2006-04-11 17:12
what if people want to make fun of the whole thing?



You PSP-haters or whatever haters... let ppl post... this news had nothing to do with psp and ppl made if fun to read it.

If you dont like it, go somewhere else _hint: DS stuff



Just have a little sense of humor.

im starting to think things like this are posted for people to lash out like this...



to be honest, i believe psp updates really doesn't need to post things about the DS, there are already enough things to get the PSP fans all wound up as same with the DS fans. i can understand if its something huge such as "DS WORKS WITH REVOLUTION", or something bigger, "DS PLAYS PSP GAMES!!." the cracking of the 360 made it to all the front pages, but thats big news.



A stylus that breaks upon use, not big news. i can understand that the PSP might lack a bit when it comes to really good info, so you gather things wherever you can, but please, DS should keep to DS, PSP should keep to PSP.



I own both, and despite what any of you are going to say, play both equally. As any gamer should be, equal opportunity.



As usual, i try to remain as respectful as possible here, i do understand the frustration that people go through. not getting the loaders they need so they can maintain 1.5 and play their 2.0+ games at the same time, but for now, since we dont have the apps we so desperately want, just please disreguard posts like this and only read the posts you actually want to read about.

# It's probably a mistakeSeroth 2006-04-11 17:52
Yeah, this should probably be in the DS section. People make mistakes. It's not like this article being on PSPupdates is going to affect anything negatively.

whats with you people? if your to spit on one little error then stop coming here for your info and go to psphacks or another and falme over there place,this place is clean and useful.

This is about a stylus not about the psp or ds so shut it for the sake of my dog.
