yaloh ... but this is marketing strategy ... before that was FragFX Controller in the market ... highly demanded ... now XFPS RATEUP came out ... they know more and more gamers playing FPS games

haha ... go get it lah ... using SG dollar to buy so cheap ...

bro ... no tax ... cause I already bought it

so you local ... CNY go to visit you and get ang paw

I got it last night (refer to picture above) ... now I go out to buy USB keyboard and mouse

I am back from crazy shopping ...

Let me get started the review ... I know you can't wait any longer

1. I used Logitech Classic Keyboard Plus (PS/2 version) and A4 Tech Mouse (PS/2 version) connected to the device ... plug and play ... but the Keyboard could not working properly (signal unstable) and the Mouse totally useless

so my answer is don't use PS/2 version ... throw my Keyboard and Mouse to rubbish bin


2. I used Logitech NewTouch Keyboard 200 (USB version) and Logitech Optical Mouse (USB version) connected to the device ... plug and play ... the Keyboard 100% working and the Mouse 100% working

[attachmentid=391763] [attachmentid=391764]

so my answer is use USB version


tomorrow I am going to buy Laser Mouse to try it out


Now I need to figure out how to re-map PS3 controller buttons to Keyboard and Mouse ... because default configuration not all the buttons assigned and suitable for every gamer ...

1. I tried it with default settings (Level 1 of X and Y sensitivity) ... mouse movement is slow ... when increase to Level 16 ... mouse movement is fast ... so you can adjust it to your comfort level

2. You need to adjust game sensitivity (low, medium, high, custom) as well to get best result

3. Response from Keyboard is fast when you press the key

4. Response from Mouse is fast when you click the button

you can set Turbo mode for all 8 controller buttons ... yet to test out

I am not a pro gamer, so my review might not be 100% correct ...

overall I would say this product is definitely good for gamers who get used to Keyboard and Mouse

myself I still think Sixaxis controller easy to use

Reset is simple ... press "P" button for 5 seconds ... all 4 indicators flashing ... done

Map keys ... you can refer to their website ... they have 2 videos ... one is to teach you how to connect Keyboard and Mouse to the device ... the other one is to teach you how to map controller buttons to Keyboard and Mouse ... damn simple

The device tested on Resistance: Fall of Man and Call of Duty 4 ... plug and play

You no need to get XFPS or FragFx ... you damn good in FPS already

Which one no stock in Play-Asia???

Walauee ... RG guys cheating ... no wonder cannot beat them

I also ordered FragFX from Play-Asia last month ... still in waiting list ... they informed me stock available in end February ... so I should be getting it this month end

sure I will be in KL .. when you want to order XFPS or you want mine

ok ... no problem

There was a third party FPS for PS2 years ago and it called SmartJoy Frag PS2. It only support PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse. When PS3 Resistant: Fall of Man came out, a third party converter called Logic3 PS2 to PS3 controller converter launched in the market.

You can use PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse to play PS3 FPS games ie. Resistant: Fall of Man and The Darkness.

However PS/2 has limitations, so a third party has created USB version called XFPS. They first developed on Xbox 360 FPS game ie. Halo 3, and successful. After received many feedbacks from Xbox gamers, they enhanced it to 3rd generation.

Now they came out XFPS for PS3 using 3rd generation features from Xbox 360.


How to connect to keyboard and Mouse (PS3 Resistance: Fall of Man game)


How to map the key to keyboard (PS3 Call of Duty 4 game)


IMO, this device has no lag ... instant response ... with Turbo Mode ON ... superb

when I tested using PS/2 wheel mouse on mouse pad ... the jerk is bad

when I tested using USB optical mouse on mouse pad ... the jerk is little

when I tested using USB laser mouse on mouse pad ... the jerk barely notice

IMO, mouse type and mouse pad is a factor

They using Dual Shock 3, FragFx controller ... now XFPS ... they just want you to have nightmare

$RG$ motto is EVERY CLAN DIE DIE! MUST DIE! DIE AGAIN!!!

I tested on Logitech brand ... quite smooth when aiming slowly ... dunno about other brands ... may be can check with XCM for advise

I will send an email to them tonight about the matters

Actually I wanted to try Razer Lachesis - a true 4000dpi 3G Laser(tm) sensor, which enables movement speeds of 5 times that of a standard 800dpi optical sensor. And a response time of 1ms, as compared to that of 8ms found in conventional gaming mice.



Use it on Razer eXactMat(tm) Precision Mouse Mat - provides two distinct performance surfaces - SPEED for action/adventure and FPS games and high-sensitivity gamers; and CONTROL for RPG and RTS games and low-sensitivity gamers - on a non-slip, anti-reflective and abrasion-resistant anodized aluminum hard coat.

The result should be maddness


You used DS3 for so long ... already used to it ... suddenly change to Keyboard and Mouse ... sure uncomfortable
