Forums - Gaming Discussion - Mouse support for PS3? (or some other catchy title)

I was just looking for a new game to get for my PS3 and happened to stumble across the category "STRATEGY".

Not really that much to pick from there is it? Anyway. It made me think back to the days right before the PS3 launched.

Wasn't there supposed to be some mouse support for the PS3? What happened? Or rather; what went wrong?

It would be just fantastic to be able to play a good strategy game with a mouse. I think Sony fucked up. ArGhh! And now I'm getting mad and can't wright decent sentences anymore!!!

I'll just say this:

What do you think? Something you miss as well? Or is the Move good enough?

there is mouse support to some games.



You mean Quake? Do you know of any other?
I just feel it could have been used more. Why not port strategy games and provide mouse support?
I realize there are some risk involved with only supporting mouse in a console game ( or else the game would have to have two different modes I guess) but it would be fun to see someone do it. But maybe it's just too late in the PS3's lifecycle now.

Unreal Tournament III has full K+M support.

As for what happened - well mixing gamepad and K+M players in competitive online is receipt for disaster as K+M players has so much advantage it isn't even funny.

Guess I'm just complaining about the current state of things more than any one company.

Haven't tried Move myself yet. Maybe Under siege will change that. Totally forgot about that one:)

 Will be exciting to see how well it works.
