Not really surprising. Nice feature though.

gr8...but crazy if u ask me....keyboard and mouse against ppl who does not have keyboard and mouse....damn....ppl using the sixaxis will be getting owned if u ask me

Mystik4l06 "We'll also allow people to choose whether or not they want to allow mixed controller vs. keyboard/mouse games or not."

oh....i didnt see that part >_<

omg part of the article was sayin that people who used the sixaxis would have no disadvantages againt people who used a mouse and keyboard.

have you guys seen the split fish controler? this is something i want to get.  it is two parts. left hand gets a hand held thing with buttons and an anolog stick it is also motion sensative, right side gets a mouse with digital buttons on the side. they say you can set up the contols how ever you want.

"We'll also allow people to choose whether or not they want to allow mixed controller vs. keyboard/mouse games or not." 
This is actually very good! Most of the people who i know who use Mouse/keyboard happen to be pc gamers... they are not the guys who us it because they want to out play other people.

for those that say its an unfair adantage for those that use keyboard/mouse, to you i say that's all BS! BS! BS! BS! now i consider myself close to average with controller with fps's but damn when i say there are ppl who plays the controller like its a freakin' keyboard/mouse. which means it's gonna be a long night on resistance. so i welcome the support for keyboard/mouse for people like me that always aim down when moving around or can't seem to get that headshot on the run (sigh). now if you excuse me think i'll go and play more resistance and practice on my aiming (pfft! that probally what most is gonna say in replies anyway. lucky you you probally not on a 20 game losing streak lol.)

they have there respective advantage.

Controlers can strafe and close qaurter battle better.....

mouse and keyboard they can snipe and do mid to long range battle better...

that's very true The_Morningstar...i couldn't agree w/ you more...i don't know if UT3 sales are gonna boost the ps3 sales...anyone have an idea??? yea...i'm a f*king retard...now that's already declared....anyone???

sorry...disregard that...will the launch of ut3 boost ps3 sales???....lol

nothing new.so whts new.

Well I for one am very excited to hear Epic confirm that keyboard and mouse will be supported for UT3. They said it a couple of times a while ago but time passes and you wonder if they have changed their minds cause you don't hear anything about it. I think FPS games expecially should support keyboard and mouse in this day and age when every reviewer I've heard of thinks it works best for FPS games. All the complaints about unfairness of having to purchase a keyboard and mouse or unfairness of losing because you are using a sixaxis controller is not a good argument as a usb keyboard and mouse and be picked up for super cheap these days. I got a wireless keyboard and mouse on sale and have it hooked up to the PS3 and its a really nice set that cost me very little. I really hope Epic starts something big :)

psn id: gingo... great addition to hopefully what will be a great game

The part about trying to balance the matches was all I needed to read. Very nice :D

I think the Six axis would have the advantage. I cant stand keyboard and mouse play. I think it could be fair if someone that is good with the controllers and some one that is good with the KB/MS have a match.

Oh, and they didnt mention keyboard and mouse support for the 360. looks like the 360 is losing out on features

Yow whatever. The fact is we got that S@#T first with mod creation ability. The more features the better for me to kick y'all A@#.

Cool. I dont think I would use it for my PS3, then again who knows. Pretty nice to see its included tho.

Wo0t now i can kick KB&M users

I cant wait for this game, i will be using a mouse and keyboard, it will be so much easier. I am looking forward to this game alot.

uh psu posted this a few months ago. (as in MARCH or so)

This is old news they said it would support both so we would be able to desided which controller setup is better

Mouse/Keyboard support should be present in ALL PS3 games.  With the possibility to choose mixed or joypad only online games there should be almost no balance problems.

First of all I don't think keyboard and mouse has to be better than controller. KB/MS is just what most of us are used to. But after long nights with Resistance you get used to controller instead and get better at it. I don't think that EVERYONE is better with mouse and I am pretty damn sure that they are equally good. It's more up to the guy behind the controlls than the controlls themselves.

Anyway, really cool that PS3 will get this feature and not 360 since it does not support mouse. :) Sweet! PS3 FTW!

This was announced AGES ago... sorry.
