An interesting answer on dust-eve connectivity:

Quote:
Will there be PS3-to-PC connectivity from day one?
Pétursson: Yeah. There will be able to communicate on our social network. We already have cross-game text chat working, and we’re looking into cross game voice chat too. There are also more structured engagement between Dust and Eve players in terms of in game mission contracts going back and forth. We also have a huge commitment to orbital bombardment [laughs menacingly].


Also, expect Sony to have an initial presence at this coming fanfest:
Quote:

“We continually write information about the game on the PlayStation Blog, and Sony will be participating in [annual community event] Eve Fanfest. Sony has a huge commitment to that show, and they will be reaching out to the Eve community and showing off live demos for the first time.”

Thanks for the post! Good info to know.

Good read.

To bad there is no way to enforce controller use on a PC or dust would wind up there as well.
At least keyboards will be useable for chat.

Maybe next interation of the Xbox MS will watch learn and steal like they do and losen up their network up a bit too.

Why in hell would you ever want to restrict PC players to using a stupid console controller? The reverse should be true: allow keyboard/mouse use as a native control scheme for the PS3.

Intelligence shouldn't be free.   Mining, reloaded.   ADDICTED.

Blue tooth keyboard designed for gamers compatiable with console 50-75$
Blue tooth gamer mouse designed for pro-gamers 100-250$
Then double the price for pirpetory technologies.
Finding out you need to buy more accessories than the console costs to play a free to play shooter?

Not worth it.
