Is this playable with just a keyboard?

Yes, however if you played the originals on console, a controller would be much more comfortable.

Yes you can configure this in the Options. I'm using the same control keys like in THPS2

It is possible to play on the keyboard, but the control scheme isn't all that great so I would advice the use of a controller.

I use it for SNES, NES and Genesis emulators with no issues. I actually prefer the keyboard sometimes, depending on what game I am playing.

it's fundamentally a mini keyboard so I would assume so, you would just have to program the proper keys.

It can be played quite easily with a keyboard and mouse. I don't own a gamepad, so I don't know if using that makes it any better or worse, but a keyboard and mouse works just fine:)

Yes. It is. You can also change the way the buttons respond in case you use it with a windows OS. I'm using the keyboard with windows. Cheers.

It's a midi controller, not an electric keyboard so no. You need a computer program or a synth to use with it.

In my experience (several months), there has been no compromise whatsoever in normal keyboard function. I can use any and all key sequences and combinations I have used on any system with a standard wired or wireless keyboard connection.

Yes but why would you use a keyboard on a mac thats not even a gaming laptop. JK do whatever you want

Yes. This is a plug and play standard midi keyboard. It only has the three octave keyboard and pitch glide and vibrato controls.

Not specifically. Go to the website for details. Last I checked, some basic keyboard features may work, but others will not. No guarantees.

yes however the software to do so doesn't with it. Depending on you OS and version you will have a 50/50 shot in finding something that works with your setup. While this keyboard is a cool idea, the execution software-wise is not worth the trouble IMO.

The keyboard and mouse work pretty much like standard ones do, so no. However, you can easily use a free scripting program like AutoHotkey to do this for you by way of a keybind, it will then work regardless of your input method. EDIT It seems like the other answer may work as well, although I have never tried it myself.

Yes, you can play it like a piano ... you can even play your own notes to make music

I'm gonna say YES. However, keep in mind that the keyboard is smaller than it looks (10" x 3.5" approx.); and second, it take some practice to get use to it, specially because the lack of feedback.
