This thing makes it so you can you a USB or PS/2 keyboard and mouse(just like we've always wanted) or even PS2 accesories such as the controller, light-gun or dance mats:

This guy is using the mouse and keyboard to play CoD3:

God damnit, why won't they make this for PS3? I tried the FragFX controller and it blows.

Some games automatically have keyboard support....

Like UT3. It will become more and more popular on the PS3.

All blutooth keyboards and mice are already supported on the PS3. Its up to games to include the ability to use that input to control the game.

My friend once got his mouse and keyboard working for CoD4 on the 360.

In two weeks he quit do to boredom and bought the PC version, which he was never that good at.

I have no clue how he did it, all I know is that it worked a little bit too well.

Yeah but most games don't support it. IIRC, UT is the only game that'll support it.

Most 360 games don't either. The only reason a 360 game should support keyboard and mouse is because they left in the code that was used to develop and test it on the PC in the first place or occassionally actually intend to support it, although from what I understand microsoft hasn't intended to have keyboard support other than the controller addon.

Well, you can use the keyboard for typing but not for actually playing the game.  I've plugged my G15 keyboard into my 360 to chat over MSN while my comp was down before.

Yeah thought it would be something like that.

Keyboard and mouse support is specifically down to the games developer.
