No problems at all. The only thing that you'll run into is compatibility. If you look in the forums you'll see all the compatible and non compatible mouses.(Compatible hardware list).

I'm guessing this thing has to do some serious emulation work. Ether that or its way over priced.

All console shooters have different levels of “aim-assist” that makes them playable using a controller. If done incorrectly, adapting a mouse to these games will result in aiming that feels jerky, unresponsive, and detached.
This made me kind of smile as that's exactly what some console ports/multi platform games feel like on PC
Edit: I'm also wondering if the XIM3 should be considered (hardware) hacking as it gives the user an unfair advantage compared to other players and was not originally intended to be available for the game
Gameplay wise, I was able to be top 1-3 every match(KDR wise). The experience was like playing on PC.
The XIM3 isnt because it was mentioned on an Microsoft XBOX forum:
Code:
As I understand, you're checking if using a 3rd party keyboard and mouse adapter on the console's going to be a violation to the terms of use.
The answer to the said inquiry would be, "no". You can feel free using the mentioned external accessories. However, we are unable to guarantee its efficiency with the console. We would highly recommend you to continue using the certified Xbox 360 accessory to optimize your gaming experience.
I hope I was able to help you on your concern today.

it was not my system though. So maybe it wasn't set correctly? Does this XIM3 work any different than if I was sitting at my PC? $180 for an adapter might seem like a lot, but I could buy that and a whole Xbox for less than a large hardware upgrade and then not need(or want...because I can't) to upgrade hardware again for many, many years. (providing the XIM3 will work with the next Xbox. I think it is too late in the game to get a 360...though I might if it was cheap)
XIM3 beats all those generic Keyboard/Mouse adapters. XIM3 is the real deal with different configurations you can set you hardware into(Works with 360/PS3). All information will be at the website.
Because I live in Hawaii, shipping+product costs me $180. Although, you do have a good point. $180 could of been used for parts/etc. Buying the XIM3 for me is more of a "want" than need kinda thing. I spend most of my time on my PC and my friends were mainly consoles. Thus, the reason why I bought the XIM3.
**You guys don't have to buy it(No advertisements), I'm just saying what Ive encountered about it so far and how it relates to this topic about FSP percision**
