While Microsoft's Xbox 360 Spring Update will integrate Windows Live Messenger into the system's dashboard for cross-platform chatting, the machine's text-window interface for standard control pads makes lengthy conversations a chore.
To ease the task of typing in messages without the aid of a full-sized keyboard, Microsoft today announced a new text input device for the Xbox 360 controller. The attachment snaps onto the bottom of the controller through the headset jack and features a QWERTY-style key layout with 47 keys.
The keyboard attachment has not been priced or even named yet, but it is expected to see release this summer.
Game Rant previews AFK Journey's first seasonal update, which includes content of every kind, new heroes, and a whole new region to explore.
Atlus wins over gamers yet again.
In a Game Rant interview, Wild Bastards developer Blue Manchu explains how the upcoming title builds on Void Bastards' roguelike gameplay.
Tried Void Bastards and this is a pass for me. While there was a lot of cool elements for a great System Shock retro style game with an amazing graphical style, the thing was just a turd. Just another example of "Why are Rogue-likes so popular again?" Oh, yeah. This the Tik Tok generation. Make sense now."
Rogue-likes, so much to say about this drive-by crackerjack and cheap style of game design, and not much is good.
does anybody know what the deal is with being able to use usb keyboards? i've heard that but i never knew if it was true.
Been using a usb keyboard for text msgs since day 1
YES! I was looking forward to this. This will be great for MMO and for games where voip does not make sense. When Sony fanboys heard the rumor that microsoft was going to integrate MSN to xbox live this was the first thing they were flaming... Now tell me, which one is better this or a usb keyboard?
Anyways.. I am sure fanboys will find something negative to say about this.
voice message ftw.
i think its really equal cause either way ur goign to have to pause what ur doing to type but now you dont have to let go of your controller and this contoller jeyboard is goign to be a lil slower to type on.
