*****What the friendly UPS-messenger delivered today in the AXB-editorship, is looked at of some Xbox-owners already as an end of the fair contest on XBL-servers or LAN-parties. In an insignificant blackly-green-plastic-Blister packs, sees the SmartJoy question as well as some typical Xbox-accessories from. The function of the device simply is circumscribed: by means of the SmartJoy question, one can connect keyboard and mouse to the Xbox. Hardly Lik-sang had reserved the online-shops some weeks ago the product, saw hagelte it already the first boycott-proclamations out of the Clan-scene (AXB reported), that in the device the Antichrist of the Onlinegamings. We subjected the device with Halo and Rainbow Six 3 a practice-test.
Next to that in transparent green held Adapter, the packing a Quick-Reference contains named become -card on that all standard-commands for keyboard and mouse. The left embroider is put standard moderate on the WASD-keys popular into PC-Shootern-circles. The left deduction is put on the left mouse key, the right deduction logical manner on the right mouse key. Also the mouse wheel is supported. Next to the standard-occupancy are include for 8-games already Presets, therefore presettings, that can be selected with the F1-F8 keys.
For following games, presettings are contained already in the delivery:
Halo

The Chronicles of Riddick

Tom Clancys Rainbow Six 3
Return to Castle wolf stone

So that the SmartJoy question the mouse movement with the same fast reaction speed transfers, how one is lived it by that „mouse view“ with PC-games, the reaction sensitivity must be increased in the relevant games often.
In Halo, it recommends itself under the options the visibility adaptation on „10“ and to place therewith the highest step, in order to to reach PC of relations.
Next to the key occupancy, further details can be programmed via key combination: a fine voting of the mouse-Deadzone so is possible, the Invertierung of the mouse movement already nearly obviously. In the practice-business, the Adapter shows that it makes available in the deed Xbox-players the same usefulness as well as PC-players. Each mouse movement is transferred immediately in the game wherewith each goal can be taken quickly and precise into the crosshair.
To be sure the Adapter of also disadvantages offers: the Xbox-Pad so offers two analogous Sticks and two analogous Trigger, and/or deductions. Also Shooter make therefrom use: one does not press moved is the left Analogstick softly forwards the game figure slowly, this with the digital keyboard-attack possible.
The same applies to the deductions, that release only a shot for example in Rainbow-Six 3 in soft activity, (instead of a volley in passage of the trigger). By means of the keyboard, a short pressure has it to be sure the same effect, offers however not the sensitive feedback that is m
