he all, so taken me awhile, i know I rambled on about this on several occasions as I found the whole concept exciting.
My S3 naturally supports HDMI output, nothing special there.
Using the right app, you can get the PS3 sixaxis controller to work, and program buttons to spots on the screen. take a screen shot of whatever game/program/app you want to use it with and map em on the screenshot.. takes a lil time, but meh, then save as a profile.

only down side is, cant figure out how to make it so I can still type with the keyboard, im sure theres gotta be a way, but meh.
(I do have one of those lil keyboards that hook onto the controller, also works through bluetooth, but dont know how well or hard it would be to map that.. lol... could prolly even use that as the controller as well..)

but anyways, I took a short vid, put it on youtube, cuz its just too awesome!
(Spoiler alert: standing in a corner in the cyclops dungeon if you havent seen it yet.. lol)



Happy Hunting!!

EDIT:
I realize I said something kinda crappy in my video regarding it being free and pointless to pay for stuff.
However, with luck this will bring in more players, and those that like it and will play it, will likely also pay for lvls and stuff.
Any characters I start new, I wont likely buy the gear, but I thats cuz I'd rather pay for levels, and I would undoubtably do so. I suspect most new players will spend money if they get into it regardless.
Guess I just feel guilty about that short sighted comment, and the potential to cause any loss of profit to creator.
Its not "Pointless to pay for things" its just being over level 200.. at the time I bought the shield when those items were first introduced, it was the top notch best thing ever! But now with new gear n all, well, you get the idea. thats more what I ment was the gear..

Sorry!

Im glad you of all people like it!

only problems are with the controller active, no keyboard (dissables the keyboard n enables the controller as the input method.. Im sure theres away around this, just havent gotten into it yet..)
And theres no button or anything to exit the invintory screen, so have to use the back button on the phone itself to exit there.. lol all minor more or less..
