Too expensive for console use, I know some of us pay more than this just for a keyboard for the PC, but as mentioned in the article this costs more than an actual console, it is a different market and should be priced accordingly. Perhaps they will be bringing out a lower end version after they see where the sales of this goes, and it might still be tempting for the 4k One X user who wants to splash out. However, Razer can do one in general after their GPU mining software debacle, I won't be buying their stuff ever after that!
Does this means you can't use regular keyboard and mouse with Xbox?
id say so, but this one can connect wirelessly rather than usb.
--- edit----
i would hope you can use std usb
Wow. You can get an Xbox One S for less than $250.
Razer Tourette, the product that makes you swear in frustration a lot!
The pricing is absurd, it's just completely crazy. You can just plug in a regular keyboard and mouse if you really want to use one on the xbox one, so there is no need to go for one branded as being "designed for xbox one". The pricing is even more daft given how few games currently offer support for it, and also how few single player games would really benefit.
I still think its a massive mistake to add this kind of official support mind, particularly as it's coming to games like Fortnite which are multiplayer focused where anyone with a KB/Mouse is going to be at a huge advantage vs those on a controller. Luckily as I don't use my Xbox for anything other than a UHD Blu Ray player it won't affect me :)
Now, I laughed earlier about the pricing, but having now thought about it, the £250 asking price isn't too bad compared to their PC equivalents; my Razer Blackwidow Elite keyboard RRPs at £179 and my Razer Mamba Hyperflux + Firefly RRPs at £249. The Xbox Razer Turret is essentially the same offering but with proper wireless Xbox support and a pad for using it on the sofa.Quote:

I'm with you there. I tried it for gaming once and fell out with the TV over it, the input lag was despicable despite it being a reasonably high end and very new Samsung model.Quote:

Does the TV not have a gaming mode? It was pretty obscure on my really old Samsung, and still not good.Quote:

I gave up using TV's and have my console at the PC desk now, using a monitor is far better provided you can connect some external speakers too.
Console gamers FINALLY realize that FPS games need a keyboard and mouse to be played properly! lol!
Welcome to the world of PC gaming, guys, you're going to love it here! :D
They won't be able to afford PC gaming if they blow $250 on a sh*tty low quality razer kb/mouse alone ... more than the console they use it for would set you back lolQuote:
