Japanese game accessory maker Hori, has recently revealed their upcoming racing controller for the PS3. Named the Zero Tech 3 controller, the accessory features a trigger-grip design with a sideways mounted analog steering control.

The design should allow players to use their left hand to control the accelerator and brake triggers, while maintaining steering control with the right hand. There's even a thumb shifter for changing gears. While that's great and all, a possible problem with the controller is that it isn't wireless.

Below is an image of the product:

The Japanese company plans to release the Zero Tech 3 controller this July and should retail for approximately US$ 42. For more info on the controller, feel free to run the "read" link below through an online translation engine of your choice.

� Interesting

So I would imagine this design would work similarly to a R/C Controller's? Too bad I'm a lefty.. Just hope this device is ambidextrous.
