I agree that we all need an option for charging the controller, but as far as the remote for blue-ray, hell my sixaxis works fine... But I will be getting the charger

ER1X6154d ago

I'd never buy a product too charge my controller when all I have to do is plug it into the PS3.

Just curious why someone would need a controller charger, no offense. :-)

warfed6154d ago

i plug the controller into my laptop when I'm not on the ps3...

@ER1X

1.When you have a really big screen TV and having just only 6 ft. cord may not be enough and awkward at the same time (an even longer cord will cost money)

2.When you have little rascals or a hyper dog in your home and idea of them tripping over your controller cord is just unacceptable (and annoying to boot).

3.You live in a college dorm and your frat mates party all the time at your place (include the tripping factor from above)

4.You don't like the sight of multiple cords starting from your PS3

5.When you play Ninja Gaiden Sigma (in the near future) and you get frustrated that you furiously throw the controller...at least your PS3 doesn't get (unintentionaly) dragged along with it.

6. Last but not the least, when you are so deathly afraid that your PS3 will overheat (especially after an xbot gives you karma after making fun of the "ring of death") and just want your controller to be wireless (and fully charged before you play), a separate charger is the way to go.

Snake_Doctor6154d ago

If you really want some money, make a remote that will control the PS3 and my TV/AV components. I will buy it without an afterthought

genix136154d ago

I agree that for me the remote is next to useless, however you have to consider how people less comfortable with the SIXAXIS(a.k.a. parents, etc.) will find it useful because of the more recognizable interface(remote). I think they are the audience that is being targeted with the remote. Also will be getting the charger cause I've become fed up with having to plug the controller and keep the machine running every time it needs to recharge its batteries.

Ebay3rd6154d ago

Well reason being for those who don't leave their playstation on all the time. it allows for Quick charge without unit being on...

Maddens Raiders6154d ago

for the BD player, but that charging unit sounds slick since I already have ports taken for the keyboard, headset, HDD, and PS2 memory card reader.

SmokeyMcBear6154d ago

booo cords coming from the ps3, the only cord I have is for my external HDD, and for now the controller charge. But headset and keyboard? boooo.. bluetooth baby, hehe,, just joshing ya madden. I do wish that sony put that usb in the rear of the console, for the external hdd, thats my only real gripe with the system

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken22h ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing691d 14h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1d 14h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1d 14h ago (Edited 1d 14h ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691d 14h ago (Edited 1d 14h ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt1d 2h ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken22h ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto1d 19h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger881d 19h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies1d 9h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
