Why Robin Makes Batman Better When Mad Catz announced a partnership with Activision to develop Modern Warfare 2 accessories, we expected a couple of branded controllers and maybe a console skin or two. They had a bit more in mind.
Logitech today took the wraps off of three new PC gaming peripherals: A colour LCD-toting keyboard, a 5000-dpi mouse and a 7.1-channel surround sound headset.
Rather than rely on a controller add-on or a full blue tooth keyboard, Success HK has just released a 3-in-1 wireless keyboard controller that provides a more convenient way to navigate PlayStation Home.
We know that Sony are working on an official keyboard add-on for the PSP but that won’t be here until mid 2009. Why wait that long when there is a perfectly good Xbox Chatpad just sitting on the table over there…
..NO! Heresy! Microsoft and Sony were never meant to be combined in this way! That is right up there with co-habiting dogs & cats, that is.
A depraved hardware modder over at AcidMods has taken an Xbox 360 Chatpad and performed unholy rituals upon it to make it work with the PSP. There was probably solder involved. Solder and goat’s blood.

The guys over at Epileptic Gaming have put together a couple of quick videos to show off just how easy it is to import Unreal Tournament 3 mods from your computer to your Playstation 3. Hit the jump for a video that shows you how you can add mouse and keyboard support for the PS3 version of the game.
The sexy, almost DS or PSP, looking device is actually a new wireless keyboard, remote controller from Logitech that happes to also work with the Playstation 3. The diNovo Mini includes a backlit keyboard, a click pad for pointing, scrolling and clicking and Bluetooth. It’s not 100 percent clear what all you can do with your PS3 using this device, but I’m sure it was be a lot of fun finding out.
Razer showed off a new gaming keyboard and headset toay at the World Cyber Games 2007 Grand Finals in Seattle this week. The Lycosa has backlit keys, super-fast response times and a number of other gaming features while the Piranha supports stereo sound and features a noise-filtering microphone.
I’m not so sure about Razer. I’ve been using their DeathAdder mouse for awhile now and not only does it not seem that sensitive to me, it actually sometimes acts up. I also tested out their Barracuda sound card and headphones and both have major issues, so I’ve stopped using them. I’m starting to suspect that they make average products and just slap a neat name on it. What sort of experience have you had with their products?
PS3 owners looking for a luxury keyboard might consider the Cordless MediaBoard Pro Bluetooth Keyboard from Logitech. Beyond its piano black exterior sure to magnetise dust to match your PS3, the keyboard features basic SIXAXIS button controls and web browsing media shortcuts during 200 hours of battery life. And while the built-in touchpad won’t be ideal for an FPS, it will make simple mouse tasks couch-convenient.
Logitech’s new Cordless Bluetooth Vantage Headset is a high quality, noise-filtering device that runs up to 12 hours on rechargeable batteries. That’s the length of some multiplayer fests for many of our readers, but Bluetooth sucks the battery power. And besides, it will match your keyboard beautifully. Both peripherals are priced at a hefty $US80 and will be in stores this November.
