Following a successful showing at E3 earlier this year, Penguin's new gaming peripheral, the Eagle Eye Converter for PS3. has now launched.

The device converts any standard USB HID keyboard and mouse into a turbo charged controller for the PlayStation 3 and apparently allows first-person shooter games such as BioShock or Killzone 3 to be played with greater dexterity via its customized key mapping feature for all PS3 controller buttons and 1 to 1 translation from the PS3 right analog stick to the mouse movement.

Mouse sensitivity can be adjusted through the game’s option menu. The Eagle Eye is equipped with a high-capacity CPU, making the mouse movement fluid with no delay and no “dead-zone”.

Thats is i needed this so bad, wonder how much its costing…:)

“”edit“”

rumor of $49.99 cost! so im going to assume it will be about the same price as a controller! OMG im going to pawn so many pad users on the ps3 when this comes out, ive finaly found a reason to play enchanted fully and red dead online XD thank you for bringing this to my attention!! you are a star hexus :)
well its about bloomin time, hopefully this will actually work
I wonder if Sony are in support of this? and if not how long it will be before its banned or it bans you from playing online, if they do endorse it then i wonder if MS following suit for the Xbox.

Surley this will have a massive inpact on the PC games market ??

Not to sure how i should feel about this tbh as we will probably see more and more Console ports for PC, which is well ……. crap.

I never even thought about that, well that certainly has put me of buying it…surely they wouldnt though? If they did that wouldn't sony ban 3rd party controllers?
