Yesterday, MOGA unveiled its new MOGA Rebel controller, a new full-sized premium game controller for iPhone, iPad, iPad Air, iPad Mini, and iPod Touch (5th Generation) that can run iOS 7 or higher. The controller resembles an Xbox 360 controller so if you're comfortable with those, you should feel pretty comfortable with the MOGA Rebel from the looks of it. The arm that's used to hold your device can extend so it'll hold whatever Apple device you have no matter how big it is.
One thing that I didn't see in the press release is how it'll handle iPads since those are a bit bigger than an iPhone. However, one of the pictures shows the iPad sitting on a stand so I'd imagine the stand would come with the MOGA Rebel. If you play a lot of games on your Apple device, including AAA games such as Bioshock, this might be a controller you want to check out. The MOGA Rebel will be available in Apple stores in North America on September 17th for $79.99. You can also check out MOGA's website for more info on compatible games.
