I usually just post game related stuff on my blog.   But........oh.........my...........god!  I'm sitting here with my 7 year old playing LOTR for the PS2.  I live in a gated lake community on the Texas Oklahoma border so we have a security guard gate.  These two dogs were in our front yard all morning.  They were kinda barking and mean, but whatever.  My wife called the security to come get the dogs and return them.  This old guy, way over 90 years old, folks, comes to the door and says "I'll see what I can do."

Alright, I have been using a mouse and keyboard set up for a week now.  So I thought  I would throw out my my .02 cents.  The overall verdict?  In my opinion I like the controller more.  But, keep in mind I have very little M/K experience in gaming prior to this setup.  I played rainbow six 2 with M/K.  The campaign is pretty fun.  I did good with the M/K.  It takes  a while to get used to it and the keyboard is kind of a nightmare to navigate around.  The keyboard puts a big damper on the whole deal for me.  I type all day with my job.  The last thing I really want to do is bang on a keyboard

I'll probably catch alot of shit for this. Alot of people consider it cheating. How can it be considered cheating if I am a better player with a controller than a M&K setup? I am super shitty with a mouse. But.........Anyhooo.........here's how to set it up for the 360 and PS3. I took a couple of weeks off from the BT port. I fried two boards. I have it up and running, it's just not purty yet.

Alright, here is the BT port with the red buttons added.  Right now I am just trying to get the paint to look good.  I still have a day left to smooth out the paint flaws.  And the a day to put it together and make sure everything works. 



As you can see I have a bit of sanding to do.  I gotta make sure those buttons don't bind up from paint build up.

Here is the lastest on the blue tooth port.  It's all up and running.  Now I am just working on the looks of the controller.  I am going with a battle scared theme.  Olive drab with flat primered red buttons,scorch marks, serial numbers, a bullet hole or two...........I am going to try and put a ripped metal piece on it, also.  If it doesn't bother the blue tooth signal.  I am going to match my Trittons to the controller so they look like military cans.  I am a little hesitant to mess with those puppies, though.
