O NO, MOUSE AND KEYBOARD FOR CONSOLES!!!

Post by ben10dough »

http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3495

This is gonna suck for people like me who don't really want to use the mouse and keyboard for my console. when i'm using my console, i'm thinkin i just wanna sit on the floor or on the couch and blast away with my trigger fingers. i play pc games as well and know that if i wanna use a mouse and keyboard, i'm gonna go sit at my computer. o well, i guess it had to happen sooner or later. i'm not sure how long this has been out, but it's news to me.

What's your deal? Is this not the news section? If you read the article, you'd also see that this thing supports halo. so once again, wut's your beef? i could understand if you were referring to my other post in another forum, but it's not. you replied to the one in the NEWS section.

I see now!
You can play your Xbox/PS2 games on your PC using the "SmartJoy FRAG" emulator instead of buying the PC game.
Please tell me I got it :P

what do you expect when a couple of people wanna start saying that i'm spamming when all i'm doing is passing on the news. yomama obviously does not have much experience with fps in the pc world. i know for a fact that if you played with a controller against people who use a mouse and keyboard, you will get owned hard. precision and speed is on a higher notch, you won't be able to keep up. sorry to break it to ya, but that's just how it is.

Ahh no. You can change settings on the controller..
And, you don't know it for a fact because different people are better than others on controllers.
Sorry, but thats just how it is.

"Hey,I found a really cool thing that allows you to play xbox with your keyboard and mouse."

My cousin can kick ass with an xbox controller. He got one for his PC and plays halo that way. And he can seriously beat the majority of keyboard/mouse users.

All it does is helps the xboxilliterate (controller wise) out. Although i would never replace the original setting because i have not played Halo Xbox enough and if i did, i woudl know the controller and possibly like it more than keyboard. You never know.

And all of you. Stop Fighting. Stop calling eachother names. Stop assuming and stop all the crap your doing. It is a topic, if it is spam then delete it. if not, leave it. Final.

I prefer keyboard/mouse. The mouse is more precise than the stick. Too bad it sucks for turning :>

Very, very nice. I'm gonna get one of them! :-)

It might also be compatible with Xbox Windows/Linux. Either way, this is off-topic and has to be locked. Or rather, i'll move it to Halo Discussion.

(love your sig Yomama)

well, this sucks.

i think their company should be looted of all their xbox merchandise, and burned to the ground along with their stupid keyboard-and-mouse-on-xbox things.
