i plan on using htpc as my arcade source... when i want to play, i'm just gonna plug in 1 usb cord or extenstion leading up the the coffee table or something (1 wire across the floor), then from there ipac can hook up allowing me to have 4 controllers. it will make a very small box with the joysitcks wired with networkign cable so i can just plug in when its time to play. 1 wire wont look so bad on the floor |

Because they are made for VERY different things. keyboards don't care about 1/4 of a second lag time and don't care about multiple key presses more then 2 or 3. and its very easy to do wireless with lag and few keys... its hard to do it without them. If you do anything, hack a wireless joystick. These are made to work well with games... There are some good bluetooth ones available.... but expensive. --- Quote from: spiffyshoes on September 06, 2005, 01:24:22 pm ---Why not hack a wireless keyboard? --- End quote --- |

YMMV, and maybe I'm just not very good to begin with ;), but I play all kinds of games on my PC with a wireless keyboard with no problems at all (no perceptable lag, etc). |

That's where you're going to see it. Most other games won't require you to press 6+ buttons at once. |
