Unfortunately you have heard wrong. Keyboard hacking is not very easy to do unless you can find a really old keyboard with easy to solder connections. Then there is the case of key blocking and ghosting(do a search on this website). If you can afford it buy an I-Pac encoder(about $40 if i remember correctly), or buy 2 cheap gamepads and connect the buttons and sticks you bought to the gamepads.

Good luck !
