here we go again another company claiming to make controller that are like the xbox but work on PS3...

I'll believe it when I see it, because from what I can tell every single company that tries this, always fails.. something is always wrong with the controller, has dead space doesn't work right, remember RAVEN what a joke...

So your going to have to show me first, before I get excited.. show me working, give it to some sites for review..

I need Proof, before you get me to buy one of these..

I myself don't see why third parties keep making clones of the 360 controller for the PS3.

IMO the DS3 is the BEST controller out there for ANY game on consoles. All that needs added are the "Real Triggers" attachment and it is perfect IMO.

The 360's controller is just too big IMO. The triggers are also awkward for any game that isn't a shooter or racer. The D-Pad is also just horrendous.

I know some people do prefer the 360 controller over the DS3 and that is fine. However we don't need ten different companies making rip-off of the 360 controller on the PS3.

I myself would much rather see a DS3 clone on the 360.

I just don't get whats wrong with having the controller designed for the system, It really isn't that hard to do. I game on almost all formats and the only 2 I would say I find particularly uncomfortable are solely touch screen with no buttons, and laptop pads. The latter of which is mostly due to them being too small to pan smoothly and shooting every damn time I brush my finger over it to look somewhere else lol

mindedone4793d ago

Problem is, just like you think the Xbox controller is too big, some, like I, think that the DS3 is too small.

As it is, the palms of my hands do not touch the controller when I play with the DS3. My xbox has been collecting dust for a while; I probably won't turn it on again until mass effect 3 (played 1 and 2 on it, so no 3 on ps3). If I could have the DS3 face buttons on an xbox controller I'd be happy

@quicksilver,
I highly doubt the controller has anything to do with Sony's position this gen, but in spite of your attempt at trolling, you make a good point; I hold the controller as I do because of the size, and because of the heavy use of the sticks.

IMH, BOTH analog sticks should be placed where the face buttons are, not just the left one.

Hopefully I can review one :) and ill let you know

Zynga4793d ago

Hmm I wonder when these become available. That xbox controller looks good for my PS3. I just hope it isn't like the raven because that controller was crap.

Gator_ESG4793d ago

Agree. Maybe these guys got it right.

Awesome! I hate the dualshock3

Gray-Fox-Type04793d ago (Edited 4793d ago )

The analog placement and triggers are the best on Xbox controller. Triggers on DualShock not that great at all.

but the d-pad on dualshock better then the d-pad on xbox 360 controller. However the new Xbox 360 pad seems to solve that with that twisting d-pad.

Only thing I can complain about on the PS3 is the controller,I think I'll give this a try

Yes it is.

Halo:Anniversary should be the 1st remake to be nominated for a GOTY slot.

Hozi4764d ago

Halo is the only FPS multiplayer game that never gets boring. The feel of the multiplayer is amazing. You all who play since Halo:CE know what I mean.

X_GAMER_X4764d ago

I know what you mean dude. Halo is magic. Its the only game I always go back play the campaign. Not many games give that feeling. Evey time you play the campaign you find it new and exciting. Played throu my Halo ce 10 years copy for about one month ago. Still amazing like the first time. Almost every game you buy now you want just to finish it and park it. As for multiplayer. You said it bro, its awsome. Can not wait for anniversary

Dota 2 preview: How Valve is building its first RTS from the ground up (DigitalTrends)

John Gaudiosi writes:Valve’s rich history with first-person shooters gets a break with Dota 2, a real-time strategy game that started life as a humble Warcraft mod.

Valve celebrated its latest video game, Dota 2, in a very big way at Gamescom 2011. The game maker awarded Team Na’Vi from Ukraine $1 million for winning the inaugural Dota 2 Invitational video game tournament, which took place at its booth over the course of five days in Cologne, Germany. Erik Johnson, product manager on Dota 2 at Valve, talks about the new game and why it’s a departure for the makers of hit franchises like Half-Life, Left 4 Dead and Portal.
