I bought a bluetooth keyboard for PS3 a few months ago, hoping to play COD4 with it, but you cannot use it as a control input, or play games in the pc way.

So far I just use it to type my psn account passwords... expensive way to type just 10 characters!

I dont know why sony didnt make keyboard as an alternative control input.

You can't, this feature is only available for PS3. Epic already answer to something concerning the keyboard/ mouse on the 360 with UT3... this is something you will not see. The 360 isn't a PC and the Game Developers do not want the consoles to become PCs.

What Theo said, this is also the case for 360, the keyboard is only used to type stuff.

Ah then back to the controllers. ;D

Just reading this thread I see alot of people arguing how much better console controllers are. Faster reaction whatever. I think almost everyone would agree that you can't beat a mouse keyboard for a FPS game. If a controller is so much better why do some console FPS games have auto aim. I know if I could play against a 360 player in an FPS without any auto aim I would win as would most here. A controller is not faster than a good gaming mouse. Not with any degree of accuracy.

Sure there are many uses for a controller. A few have already said it:Spy - Controller, Merc - mouse Keyboard. For a third person view or racing games I don't think you can beat a controller but a mouse keyboard setup is close. Like was mentioned, if controllers were the be all and end all then why would Microshaft sell a mouse and keyboard for the 360.

I hope the Mod team doesn't think too much about consoles as I think they have a great thjing going as it sits now. Too many PC games are the result of a shitty port from consoles and the quality suffers. SC Double Agent is one that comes to mind right off. Again like was mentioned, the only way a console port would help is if the two could play together (PC and console).

The only thing that matter is the user, not the tool and how many times have you played with a 360 controller at a FPS?

I didn't find the original text, but here is something interesting.

I wouldn't say the mouse is more or less accurate than it just being plain faster.

Ummm, you can change sensitivity to the controller.  Ever play Halo 2/Halo 3/ANY GAME on console with highest sensitivity?  It's as fast as the mouse can go.

I seriously doubt that. Show me a video of the highest sensitivity.

Lawlz.  Shows how much you know about consoles, really.

Yeah, I guess we console players all play slowly and miss every shot eh?  That guy in the video above isn't even that great tbh...  Plus, he said he did all that in less than an hour - which may or may not be true.

I was playing for months at 10 sensitivity on Halo 2 & 3... it's damn! fast. Nice vid! I do not even have to use my capture card :D thumbs up ^^, but Halo 3 10 sensitivity is faster

7 is the best overall sensitivity, it's enough fast to avoid the annoying sticky auto-aim while quick-scoping (and above 7). Sniping at 7 and more is deadly, but it requires some skills.
