Topic: KB+Mouse Coming to PS3

[Xessive]

Penguin United's Eagle Eye brings WASD to your PS3 shooters, disrespect to your enemies!

With the PS3's plethora of USB ports scattered across the front, you'd think it'd be a no-brainer that all shooters on the console would support keyboard and mouse controls to make the FPS purists happy. Sadly that's not nearly the case, so it's up to companies like Penguin United (creators of a fine array of silly Wii  peripherals) to fill the void. The Eagle Eye is its attempt, a surprisingly sizable box with an unfortunately short 2-foot USB cable and inputs for mouse and keyboard. Using buttons on that box you assign controller inputs to keys and away you go, hunting the Helgath's worst in WASD. The cost is a bit steep at $60 when it ships later this month, but nobody said having a (possibly imaginary) unfair advantage over the competition would be cheap.

There's a video on there too.

IT was only a matter of time until someone came up w/ this thought. Though, they mention FPS's.

Strategy games (think of say Sup Com games) and some RPG's (such as Dragon Age: Origins), and other games really could benefit from KB/mouse support on a console. We might see more of THESE types of games on the console more often too, if they did actually utilize this control method. Plus, might save some dev's some damn development time on deciding to come up w/ a different UI for a different control method.
