LGR Oddware - The Titans Sphere
Added 2024-02-20 00:49:36 +0000 UTCOddware returns! I didn't realize that it had been over 4 months since the last episode, jeez. So here we are with the first one of the new year!
And dang is this thing a true oddity. Not only is the Titans Sphere basically unheard-of other than a few offhand references in lists of “worst controllers of all time” or whatever, but it's the only example I have ever come across in its box. Heck there's only one other working example I've even seen a video about... Hmm I wonder if there's a reason no one bought one!
I'd truly love to know if you've ever used one yourself, or even if you remember seeing the ads for these in basically every PC-related magazine in late 1998 or so. Either way I hope you enjoy the coverage of this oddity!

The spinning around in USAF cracked me up :D
