Overview

First off, it's important to note that the Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal is compatible with all PSone and PlayStation 2 controllers, as well as the various PSone/PS2 steering wheels available. Many steering wheels have been released without foot pedals, forcing you to press down the gas button and hold the wheel in an awkward position. The Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal alleviates that problem by giving you two sturdy, high-quality pedals. Simply plug a controller or a steering wheel into the foot pedal, and then plug the foot pedal into your console. That's it! The steering wheel is ready to roll. Put the pedal to the metal and leave the competition in the dust -- while having more fun, too. Racing games just aren't the same with a controller, especially arcade ports like Ridge Racer (for those of you who don't know, Ridge Racer was once an arcade game). The excitement of the arcade version is brought back with this pedal.

With fighting games, Innovation's Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal lets you "stomp" out the competition! Kick the left or right pedal and watch as Eddy Gordo thrashes his opponent. Remember those old arcade games where you'd punch or pound the rubber pads to attack your opponent on the screen? The Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal can be used in a similar fashion. Very cool.

And that's not all. Since each pedal is programmed the same as the buttons on the PlayStation controller, they'll work with any game. Obviously, Konami's International Track and Field games work well with the Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal. But one game that you may not even think to use with the pedal is Parappa the Rapper. In Parappa the Rapper, you press the face and shoulder buttons in sync with the music. The Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal adds a new dimension of play to the game. You must be quick with your feet this time around, not just your hands. What's better than the increased amount of skill required is the amount of fun you'll have playing the game. It creates a new experience for gamers who have beaten Parappa a million times the "old" way.

The Racing / Fighting Foot Pedal is available now for $19.99.
