It's over...

Finally I can destroy at Halo 2 with my keyboard/mouse. This was the only thing holding me back from buying a 360. I grew up on console but then Doom II, Quake, Counter-Strike, etc... lost my touch. In my opinion, console gamers will be at a HUGE disadvantage against us keyboard/mouse guys.

This is what I'm worring about too. I'm an avid Rainbow Six: Vegas player, and I'm already having a tough time being some of the elite-ranked players on that game. I can hold my own, but I'm clearly not in the top 25% yet.

That being said, once they introduce the keyboard, etc. it's the end of the road.

You are not going to be happy with the offical keyboard being offered. It is the size of normal controller with the space between the "horns" filled in with a keyboard with really small keys.

I am not sure if they will ever support a mouse as well.

I'm a PC gamer who tried to be cheap and buy an Xbox 360 instead of upgrading my PC. I tried playing GRAW 2 online but I was getting owned. I just sold the console and game but if they had a mouse and keyboard setup, I would have stayed.

I'm sure any USB keyboard should work so you don't have to settle for the awkward "official" offering.

Dunno why the the decision to NOT have mouse support in most xbox360 games. You would think that feature would draw HUGE numbers of additional gamers to buy the 360 instead of settling for a typically underpowered pc.
