Any News On Keyboard/mouse Support?
« on: January 04, 2006, 09:36:00 PM »

I've been waiting on getting a 360 until I heard of some form of keyboard mouse support. Has ms mentioned anything of this yet? Is their a way to rig a system up yet, or is their something like a joyfrag available?

a USB keyboard will work in the system as it stands as far as I know.... sadly it won't work for anything other than menu's that actually HAVE a keyboard on screen like entering a name for a save/profile.... this is a requirement.

alternativly you could have just READ THE STICKY

QUOTE

Do USB keyboards work?
YES, But only for text input, such as setting up your character, re-naming media, and chatting. It CANNOT be used as a controller in any game released so far.

Do USB Mice work?
NO, Currently there are no USB mice that will work with the Xbox 360

I didn't ask specifically about usb now did I.

They joyfrag used ps2 inputs, I'm suprised somebody hasn't tried to splice a 360 controller plug onto the end of the joyfrag to see if that works.
