That is clearly cheating, not everyone can use mouse and keyboard in online FPS games on 360 and that gives you a distinct advantage.

So much for a level playing field...not much point in using the controllers anymore since the accuracy of a game controller, even in the most skilled hands, is no match for a keyboard and mouse...might as well go back to playing PC games--better graphics, upgradeable, easier to copy games, and no XBOX-LIVE membership fees. I agree with Tip Tank, this is clearly cheating or at least highly unfair for those who use game controllers and will pretty much make multiplayer gaming pointless unless you know for sure those you are playing with are all using the same type of controllers.

ms just changed the internal stuff inside the pad recently.

anyone know if this will allow the logitech g25 steering wheel to be used on forz2 and pgr4?

While I never tried one of these things and I certainly agree it is unfair, we do have one thing going for us.
From what I understand, most games impose a software limit on how fast you can turn the camera (since on a controller, you use the analog stick).
Suposedly, with a mouse, playing Halo or something like that just feels like you're playing with a REALLY low sensitivity. You cannot make 180 degree turns with a flick of a wrist.

hah have u guys even bothered to read any of the reviews of xtender's XFPS? the thing is a complete piece of junk. The best way I last checked to get this thing even remotely moving as good as a controller is to use this in conjunction with another ps2 mouse/keyboard adapter.

and BTW cheating? cmon in PCs we are all allowed to play with different type of input devices. Why would this change a single thing - any1 can go out and buy it. Of course if u cant afford it, maybe u should be selling the 360 because there are obviously bigger needs in yer life.

So technically I could use this to map out all of the notes on TTFAF and get 100% on Expert and get that 750k Ach...

i think its a load of bullshit

if you wanna play games with a keyboard and mouse, get a bloody PC

if you buy a games console, then the controller is as standard a pad! m$ havent released a mouse and keyboard, so there obviously isnt meant to be one!

im fed up of people using these things on consoles, especially in COD4! it makes it totally unfair on the team with pad controls, and takes the skill and fun out, thats why there should be a level playing field!

losers

I was always wondering if MS can detect this thing on xbox live and ban you.

Anyone knows?

NeoDarkSaver · « **Reply #11 on:** March 29, 2008, 08:32:00 PM »

hopefully this will be at a affordable price. i remember version 1 was like 80 dollars and plus shipping.

no need to worry about level playing field guys.

These devices never work like a real mouse setup. They just mimick a gamepad, and in effect, have all of it's disadvantages. The games are written for gamepads, they are not written for mice. They don't take into account acceleration and the sensitivity and speed aren't the same either. So what you get is a slow and often awkward controlling mouse setup.

Waste of money. And a ugly color to boot.

Yea, these things are never very good. I have one of the original versions for the xbox1. It was terrible. Completely useless and a waste of my money.
