|
 |
Traded my 2nd xbox (banned xbox that is) for a PS3 with 2 third party controllers and Skate 2, unfortunately the two controllers sucked ass and the 2nd controller didnt even respond :S
So I ventured down to the local Gamestop, Blockbuster and a Danish electronic chain called Fona and fuck me a new dualshock 3 controller cost like 90 dollars in all three stores.
What the hell is up with that? Even a standard X360 controller cost like 60 dollars and the worst thing Is I hate the damn thing it doesnt fit in my hand :/ still Heavy Rain rocks

4 of my mates purchased PS3's this weekend just passed. All 4 for heavy rain.. It seems that when you make a good game exclusive, it really pushes console sales.

yeah, the shitty thing is made for japanese kid hands...you can buy some rubber/plastic thingies to snap on the sticks and R2/L2 buttons, makes the whole "experience" a bit easier to stomach

The thing that pissed me off about the PS3 I bought was that it didnt come with component cables.... WTF? It came with the standard AV cable
So I purchased some madcatz component cables which sucked so I had to go back to gamestop and exchange it for expensive Sony component cables. The console has been sitting inside a box in my room ever since beating MGS4 back in january

ouch
Quote: | Opened it up as I spent ages trying to charge it!
it basically has the PCB for the controller movements, 2 x motors for the vibration.
No Bluetooth circuitry and No battery/charge circuitry!
Essentially its a wired controller for the PS3!
works fine.
Plastic feels a bit rough but not too bad, durable 2nd, 3rd controller etc - just make sure you get long USB cables or extensions.
Enjoy! |
