You got your Xbox 360 controller in my PS3


Recommended Posts

I think I'll wait for Rev.2

I think Rumble and Wireless support are key, then many more would flock.

Lack of sixaxis I guess for anyone playing games that use it - Maybe PSN titles, they seem to make the best use of motion control as it's usually for simple concepts, as opposed to trying to turn a complex manoeuvre into something done with hand waving.

But hey, it seems to be the FPS crowd complaining most, they'd probably just live with cons for FPS games, and use the DS3 for other titles/genres.

I definitely don't give a stuff about Sixaxis controls, regardless of game genre. It's definitely not needed in an FPS anyway. I've managed fine without it for this long (Y)

The lack of rumble is the biggest drawback imo.

Lies, you've already told me your GOTY2009 is going to be Flower.

I'm actually looking forward to it :laugh:

Oh jeez, please tell me you're kidding lol

I suppose your next purchase will be that Japanese garden game :p

Nah Gardening ain't my thing.

It's pretty fun in Animal Crossing, but thanks to Nintendo rehashing 3 times in a row, I'm a bit burnt out on it there as well.

finally just got it today, came from Honk Kong so that could be why... Will have a review up in a few days max, but the very first downfall i see is that you need to have a Wired controller for it to work... hopefully the plug n play cord works, or it may take me awhile to get my hands on a wired controller :( i think i gave my original one to a friend or something, will have to check

Yeah we already knew that it needed a wired controller I'm sure? Anyways looking forward to it dude, but I'm pretty certain you'll need to get a wired controller. The play & charge only charges the battery. Same goes for when you use it on a PC.

I guess I zoned out on that fact, but no worries, turns out my friend gave it back to me when he gave me back a game I borrowed, so plan on checking it out as soon as work is done.

Larry's got his review up for anyone not looking at the front page: https://www.neowin.net/news/gamers/09/01/14...-adapter-review

Thank you sir. (Y)

Did you try using the Play N Charge adapter for wireless? (if you have one i.e.)

So do you need to send it back DL? Or are they letting you keep it?

Did you link them to the article? What did they think/say?

I just sent it to them a little while ago, will see how they respond.

I honestly did not try that as I read it will not work, but I will for the hell of it.

I also plan on trying the Keyboard attachment and the mic although I do not expect either to work, again I will do so just to see if they do.

If they do, I will update my review, if not, I will just post here.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
    • Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
