+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted July 30, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted July 30, 2008 You know what though, I really could care less, if you all cannot play with the PS3 controller, that just means I will own you all in Resistance 2 and Killzone 2. :p After reading all these posts, QFT.

Mark my words!..Failing that, I will just need to hunker down with the pain to pwn AB's ass :devil: It'll be totally worth it though :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrix XII Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Wasn't there a custom mod you can do for that? I thought I saw one before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookas Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Personally, though I prefer the 360 controller, I think blaming the sticks is just an excuse. I've played Call of Duty on both systems and I'm not any better on one version than the other, both controllers are totally usable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si_ Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) I use both the 360 and PS3 and I have to say for me the 360 controller excels almost every respect: Weight:It just feels like a decent weight to be playing with. The PS3 controller feels tacky and cheap, with no weight to it Concave where it matters: Real triggers without some crappy add ons, concave sticks for more precision Left stick in the right place: Let's be honest, your left thumb is almost constantly be on the left stick, so it's always in a comfortable position. Your right one usually needs to go between the stick and face buttons, so makes sense to be where it is. Using the PS3 controller now just feels abnormal. Size:Actually made for normal hands, the PS3 controller feels like it was designed for japanese midgets. There's always the excuse that the PS controller has always been good because it's been around so long, it's true to an extent but in reality it's just been slightly better than the competition. When the PS1 original controller came out, it did the job very well and everyone loved it. Then they added the sticks, and because it was new everyone loved it so they've not moved from where they were. There's just been little additions throughout the different versions but kept the same fundamentals. It was sucessful because it was just better than the competion. The 360 controller, IMO is the first to really hit the nail on the head. They've looked at the sucessful PS controller and researched how it could be made better, rather than just adding features here and there. Look what happened when sony tried a redesign :shock: they ended up running back to safe ground, perhaps they should have taken some design ideas from the 360. The D-pad is a bit crap though, i'll give them that ;) EDIT: This is more like it :p http://benheck.com/04-14-2007/ps360-controller Edited July 31, 2008 by Si_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 And to prove a point, even the US military has adopted the 360 Controller design to go with their Unmaned vehicles/robots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popisdead uk Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 And to prove a point, even the US military has adopted the 360 Controller design to go with their Unmaned vehicles/robots. LOL! Cos of course, the US Military are always so precise with their aiming! The 360 pad clearly isn't working for them!

Sethos Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yeah, I'm willing to sacrifice my Sixaxis and a 360 controller for that mod. but the guide is just 4 or 500 levels more advanced than I'd like it to be :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BajiRav Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 LOL at the timing, Ben Heck stuffs a wired 360 controller in a DualShock 3 shell We can always count on our man Ben Heck to be up to something crazy in his mad console-modding workshop, and while his latest creation isn't as wild as the PS3 laptop, it's still good for a double-take -- check out this wired 360 controller shoehorned into a DualShock3 shell, complete with green LEDs. Ben says it works great, rumble included, but that there's no headset connector and the L2 and R2 triggers aren't analog -- both things he's hoping to fix in the next version. We'd suggest keeping the DS3 buttons as well -- while the colorful 360 buttons look pretty hot against that black case, we'd rather break this thing out and blow minds stealth-style.

Cloud Constructors Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 LOL! Having experienced both extensive gaming time on both systems, heres my verdict: PS3 controller for fighting games, or third person like MGS4 360 controller for FPS and racing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
