As many of you have already learned, StreamMyGame's streaming software allows gamers to stream PC games to their PlayStation 3. The company behind this software has released a new iteration of their product that allows USB and Bluetooth connectivity in order to allow PS3 gamers the opportunity to utilize their SIXAXIS controllers to play the PC titles they love.

"Both our new StreamMyGame PS3 player and the Bluetooth tool install automatically, just download and double click," said Richard Faria, StreamMyGames CEO. "In addition to streaming games from your local PC, the new player enables games to be streamed from remote PCs or PC servers housed in ISP exchanges."
 



One of the coolest parts about this new installment is that players can map keyboard keys and mouse buttons to the controller as they see fit. This allows the player to map their own controllers to their liking, giving them even more customization.

"The new player works with Yellow Dog Linux Version 6 which is now really easy to install and recommended by Sony," said Richard. "We have included full details on our website of where to download YDL6, how to record it to DVD and how to install it. The ability to use the SIXAXIS to play PC games on the PS3 enables our PS3 customers to use a gaming control they are already familiar with and the flexibility to play games the way they want."

    Maybe I'll have to buy Orange Box and Left 4 Dead on my PC to play through my PS3. Interesting. No EA bugs ftw.

    you still need a high spec pc in order to run those games why cant they make something like an emulator just for running pc games in linux, seeing as though i can't get qemu to run

    I have a monster pc, I will have to check into this so I can play some pc games on my bigscreen using my controller that would be crazy.

    what is the point?  just play it on your pc.  am i missing something?  if you want it on your big screen tv, hook your pc up to it.
