Never bothered getting one of these. Didn't see the point when you can use Play & Charge kits.

RankFTW4993d ago

Indeed, got a charge kit for like £5 and that does the job.

gamingdroid4993d ago (Edited 4993d ago )

I got some rechargeable Eneloop battery kit and it works fantastic! Batteries that are fully charged, sitting in my drawer don't loose very much charge at all like normal rechargeable batteries.

I don't bother with the Play'N Charge kit, because one it didn't work twice! Then it ties me to the machine. I hate built in batteries, just use regular AA and AAA batteries. It is cheap, convenient and available everywhere!

BATTERIES VS. USB CHARGE

M$ FAILS

SONY WINS

Dorwrath4993d ago

Not really, When my PS3 controller lost the ability to charge I had to pay $50 to buy a whole new controller, when my 360 rechargeable battery died I just bought another for $10.

Sure it's nice that its built in on the PS3, but cost more when the batteries die.

Time_Is_On_My_Side4993d ago

lol, I made a comment about that a while back as a joke and never actually thought someone here thought that?

The Comment: http://n4g.com/news/596240/...

If you really think you have to throw away the controller when the dual shock dies you would have to be drunk, please tell me you were drunk? The great think about the PS3 you can get a cable longer than the packaged one, but at least it comes with rechargeable batteries/cord.

actual_gamer4993d ago

When i have to charge my ps3 controller i can't play because of the tiny cable length

Roozium4993d ago

You're probably the biggest troll here. I see you in every Xbox 360 related article and you always comment something Sony fanboy-ish without any fact behind your statement.

KratosGirI4993d ago

Wait 'til you see his YouTube vids. They're hilarious!

000000000000000000014993d ago

With my 360 I always have a wireless controller, my PS3 wireless controllers become wired when they need charged. Which is better?

You Noob4993d ago (Edited 4993d ago )

You Know you can play while the controller is charging?

Of course no... xbot.

Report suggests the UK is a console nation

Bit-Tech: Perhaps the biggest surprise was that the tide of console gamers is a cultural phenomenon which does not appear to cross every border. According to NPD's research, while the UK has the highest incidence of console usage out of all the markets analysed Germany boasts the biggest number of PC gamers.

France, meanwhile, is clinging on to dedicated hand-held consoles like the Nintendo 3DS and Sony PlayStation Portable at a time when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets.

"when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets."

you mean like japan, europe or the US where the 3ds is breaking records?

People are ditching the 3DS so fast in the US, 3ds sales have doubled over ds first year sales and the year isnt even over.

No source, no truth

who approved this garbage?

Knight_Cid4458d ago

you shouldnt be proud to approve slander

ATi_Elite4457d ago

but 250 million global online PC Gamers say other wise.

Everyone with a Gaming PC can play Wii Games so does that mean the world is a Wii Nation?

I think people just enjoy Games and it really doesn't matter the platform.

Console Nation, PC Universe, iPhone Realm, doesn't matter just enjoy your Games.

StayStatic4458d ago (Edited 4458d ago )

Considering most PC Gamers will own 1 or more consoles , declaring the UK as a "console nation" is complete and utter bollox.

kevnb4458d ago (Edited 4458d ago )

owning a console and playing the occasional game once in a blue moon doesnt make you a console gamer. Just like owning a pc and maybe playing some random flash game doesnt make you a pc gamer. Alot of pc gamers bought ps3s, its a blu-ray player and media hub that plays games.

guitar_nerd_234458d ago

I'm from the UK and game on nearly every platform I can think of.

But yes in general I'm more thumbs than fingers when It comes to my games.

Paul Christoforo to Write a Book Based on the Ocean Marketing Debacle

Remember in December of last year when Paul Christoforo became the pariah of the internet? Ocean Marketing was at the center of a scandal that took the internet by storm after Christoforo exchanged rude, angry emails with a customer of Avenge Controllers, for whom Christoforo was providing customer service. I recently had the chance to speak with Paul about the whole ordeal and what his life has been like since.

That is a very nice looking xbox 360.

gamingdroid4471d ago

That does look sick and the sound is even more awesome. Too bad the darn Xbox 360 is so expensive still.

LX-General-Kaos4471d ago

When the Wii U drops the xbox prices will take a serious nose dive. Hopefully they still have that particular one floating around retail.
