Penguin United Eagle Eye Converter 2.0 (BmR)

Benchmark Reviews: For many years, there has been an ongoing fight between PC and Console gamers. One of the primary complaints of PC gamers has always been that fact the consoles have "inferior" controls lacking the precision of a keyboard and mouse. Penguin United's answer to this problem is the Eagle Eye Converter, which allows user to map their mouse and keyboard to a PS3 controller effectively allowing users to use a mouse and keyboard with any game in the PS3's library. In this review, Benchmark Reviews will see if the Eagle Eye Converter can quell the control complaints of hardcore PC gamers and help bring two separate communities together again.

some ps3 games support mouse and keyboard via usb

blumatt4868d ago (Edited 4868d ago )

LittleBigPlanet 2 is about to support mouse and keyboard for creating levels. But not for actually playing it. I'd rather use a controller anyway, but I agree that a KB/M option in all games would be good to appease PC gamers and maybe convince them to buy a PS3.

ATi_Elite4868d ago

Sorry but your gonna need more than KB/M support to appease PC gamers as using a KB/M on the PS3 and 360 has been around for years.

Sure I could buy two graphics cards instead of three and buy a PS3 instead but after Killzone 3 then I wouldn't play it and wouldn't even use it for a Blu-ray player as My HTPC does that already.

PC gaming is just different, sure a lot of the big port titles get all the glory but Mods and indie games are a big part of PC gaming.

Oh this device and article are old as dirt.

Mr Tretton4868d ago

What others besides Unreal Tournament 3?

Halow4868d ago

As far as I know.. it only is UT3. I wish developers put keyboard/mouse support in all of their games. It doesn't seem like it would be difficult.

SlxTeN4868d ago

KB/M won't happen because of PS Move.

x8004868d ago

i really would like KB/M for the ps3.

Jacobite4867d ago

Me to, gamers should get the option.Sony are more lightly to let Devs support K&M than MS as they refuse to support it.

number 4 ,in my eyes, is a total kick in the groin. Total dis service to the whole tactical genre.

I can't decide if the list was based on what games look realistic or what games are realistic.

3GenGames4479d ago (Edited 4479d ago )

Battlefield is a FPS primarily that requires teamwork and tactics to win. Doesn't mean it did a dis-service to the tactical genre, it just means none of the tactical genre games were good enough to beat it. Pretty accurate, IMO. Everything in the game is spot on physics and realism-wise. Of course there's some thing that can't be to have a good game, but deal with it.

TooTall194479d ago

Stopped watching after I saw his first 2 choices. What a joke he thinks Battlefield 3 is realistic. It can be tactical, but certainly doesn't need to be played that way in order to succeed.

3GenGames4479d ago

You'll totally be able to win planting 0 bombs in rush or capturing 0 points in conquest, not ever flanking or getting behind people to do said things if your teammates can't. Good luck with that, you've just never played the game right. I also bet you haven't won, either.

TooTall194479d ago

http://battlelog.battlefiel...

Actually I have won a game doing nothing but lone-wolf running and gunning. In fact, I've won quite a few games doing my own thing. I've also been in the top 3 (out of 24) about 28% of the time.

Ejecting from a jet, shooting another jet with a rocket launcher while in mid-air, and then landing back in your jet is NOT realistic. It's fun, but that's not the point of this top 5.

h311rais3r4479d ago

compared to many other games it is realistic. sure there goofy shit u can do but come one. u know why u won lone wolfing? the other team wasnt working as a team or even cared about winning. COD kiddies just want kills

TooTall194479d ago

Okay then 60% of BF3 players don't use tactics is what you're saying. And that's on "hardcore" servers even.

Just because it's more realistic than some other games doesn't mean it deserves to be in a top 5 list.

ExCest4479d ago (Edited 4479d ago )

You know why you do well? You don't die. You know why? You don't play the objective. Just killing scrubs that can't fight back because they have more important things to do. Like PTFO.

You're one of those people who run up to the bomb, kill everyone, and then run away so you don't die. Without planting/defusing. I hate those people. Don't play BF3 if you're going to do that. Play COD and don't give BF3 a bad name.

Now I sound mean but seriously...

BTW your Battlelog isn't impressive. You lone wolf it but dude, it's fairly unimpressive. I do better by playing the objective. (But I've been sniping recently so I haven't helped the team too much.)

After looking at your Battlelog. You lie. You do play the Objective.

TooTall194479d ago (Edited 4479d ago )

Yes you are right. Your 1.74 W/L ratio and 8 more hours of playtime is so much better than my terrible 1.53 W/L ratio... That's a whopping 3%

Of course I play the objective! Look at my original comment. I go in Rambo-style and take the objectives, cause half of your team is doing their own thing away from the objective.

Then name a game that is huge (in a sense that everyone will play) and is also tactical. Nowadays, people like the fast-paced action of FPS so it would be boring if BF3 was all tactical. Everyone would be too cautious and sit back and not die. EVER. Tactical requires a captain who can plan everything but if that happens, it won't be fun because you won't be doing your thing, but instead someone else's.

lorianguy4479d ago (Edited 4479d ago )

For #3, I'd say GT5 is more realistic than Forza. Simply because it is a simulator and puts realism before fun, whereas Forza is very fun but not as realistic as GT5.

I know his list wasn't going to include simulators, but you need them for a realistic game, no?

Series_IIa4479d ago

It's obvious that you nor him have heard of rFactor...

lorianguy4479d ago

Just checked it out. It looks very nice indeed. :)

But I still think GT5 is more realistic.

(Or if you can find a good gameplay video of it, I might change my mind. I don't have much time to look for myself I'm afraid.)

RXL4479d ago

Realistic feeling = if you switch out a mag...you don't get to keep the bullets in the previous mag you just threw away = no games out that are THAT realistic

should've just named this "Games i think are fun and kind of, almost, not really realistic"

Ducky4479d ago

There are games that are smart about weapon reloading.
RedOrchestra is one that I can name off the top of my head, and it isn't even a military sim.

Slugg3r4479d ago

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising did this, although I'd say it gets annoying to use the left overs of your ammo belts when you run out of fresh ones.

ninjahunter4479d ago

There was a game called like swat or something i played along time ago. You start with 4 mags, one in your gun, 3 spares. If you reloaded You would keep the mag but it might only have 1-2 bullets left. Of course that game somewhat tanked it for obvious reasons.

MaximusPrime4479d ago

Well that's Gamersheep's opinion. Respect.

Police Target Xbox Users for Stakeouts, Console Searches

First, it was computers. Then it was cell phones. And now? It's gaming consoles.

Hacktivist group Anonymous recently targeted the email account of a cybercrimes investigator with the California Department of Justice. That hack netted a treasure trove of information related to police use of Xbox and other gaming consoles.

The practice is apparently becoming more and more common.

Microsoft must put an end to this ,cause now they will have allowed these scumbags to even listen in on those who are innocent. Sounds like invasion of privacy.
