In yet another showing that the G1 team is not only responsive, but interested, I received the following: G1 has not been tested using an X-Box or PS2 to USB connector. This is only due to our limited resources. Actually, G1 contains a chip for USB, and it is therefore not difficult to support USB directly. All we need to do is to support MANE for PC. But it takes time to develop, to test and to certify. Please be patient. Best regards, eRealGames, Info team. |

Thats quite interesting (althuogh not surprising as a lot of Xbox stuff is usb type I believe....) Also due to the way this gun system works (cameras/infrared) - ie NOT reliant or interupting the video signal - I actually think it would be possible to 'hack' to work on a PC. I'm not suggesting its necessary as it looks like they are developing the PC version themselves, but if this fell through (hope not) I reckon this would be FAR easier than a 'typical' console gun. All you need to know/decipher is how the positional information is passed from the gun.... |

As an update to the above, I've read a review of the Xbox version of the G1 Gen where they state that it actually has an Xbox and PC-USB connecter - just no drivers for the PC... Anyone have one of these to confirm? Normally the issue with Xbox guns is that they use the "extra yellow wire" in the interface connections (which is otherwise a USB plug). |

Glad I sold my ActLabs gun about a month ago. Got $171 including shipping ;D |
