Are you tired of getting knocked out in fighting games such as the upcoming Street Fighter IV? The $89.99 XCM Dominator joystick may be the solution to your misery. Unlike Sony's wireless SixAxis and DualShock3 controller, the USB-based Dominator supports macro programming and holds up to 20 keystroke combinations in four memory keys. So instead of clocking countless hours practicing a super special combo strike, all you need is to effortlessly hit a button to execute the move.

There is also a rapid-fire turbo mode for its eight primary buttons perfect for first-person shooter games. At the moment, there are no indications of any force feedback support for the Dominator. What you do get is a bank of pretty blue LEDs to light up its translucent black casing. XCM has just announced U.S. availability, but did not elaborate further for other regional markets.
