has any one tryed one of those usb to 2 ps/2 ports for keyboard and mouse?
-
yeah i got one of those USB->PS2, it works ... well with a keyboard anyway, since i have yet to find a homebrew app support a mouse. anyone know of any?
-
NO, havent there already been like 100+ posts asking this?
-
Yes there have been, which goes to show the demand for Mouse/Keyboard support on the Xbox. MSs stupid fear of people making the Xbox into a PC by adding mouse/keyboard support has really backfired by making gameplay lousy in FPS. To then add keyboard support for ONE game (Phantasy Star Online) just adds insult to injury.
Is there no way that Xbox gamers can enjoy decent controls in games that need them - ie (mouse/keyboard for FPS and Force Feedback wheels for driving games) ?

yeah, you can game with a mouse and keyboard. You have to install linux on the box, then you splice in USB ports to the controller ports, and plug in USB mouse and keyboard.
