Gimx..time to buy a ps3?

Post by runim »

Hi guys!I'm new in this forum!Ehm..i'm an old pc player.I play quake 3 and Openarena per many years.I LOVE my mouse and keyboard!Now my pc is older,and i have 2 possibility:buy a new pc for 1500-1800€ or buy a ps3 for 150€.I'm unable to play with joypad at fps,but for other types of games is good...
In the end:gimx can give me the same sensation of a mouse/keyboard on pc?It's the same of playing on pc?It has lags?Can i set dpi of mice?
It's easy to setup?

Hi,

Gaming on a console is really different from gaming on a PC:
- the turning speed is limited
- the FOV is generally reduced
- there are less FPS
- there is sometime more input lag

If you can live with that, and if you have enough money, you should wait and buy a ps4. I believe it will be much better that a 6-year old console.

Hi!I thought it would be your answer.Ps4 will have an ingame mouse/keyoboard compatibility?
On your opinion is better gimx or eagle eye converter?

There only are a few ps3 games supporting M+KB: UT3, CS GO, DUST 514 (and maybe a few more).
I believe it will be the same on ps4.

Gimx is more flexible than the eagle eye. Most people that tried both prefer gimx.

I have ut3 & cs for pc.That games aren't in my desired ps3 games list.Perhaps i should continue with pc...
I would precision and sensibility...if i can't have with adapters or gimx i think the pc solution is my(expensive)way.
