A Knock-Off of the PS3 Controller Nobody Wanted

Gizmodo writes:

"Sony's Boomerang controller for the PS3 never made the light of day, but that doesn't stop it from being knocked off by a Chinese OEM. We spotted this in the International Corridor of CES. And we feel really, really bad for the sweatshop workers who have to crank out such products...that are obsolete before they're even made."

I actually liked the boomerang controller :(

MrSwede6338d ago (Edited 6338d ago )

Me too. I think it would've felt better than the sixaxis..

I liked the boomerang controller too. It would have been more ergonomic than the normal dual shock and it looks better.

The boomerang is one of the worst controllers ever along with the dreamcast and xbox 1 controllers.

EDIT: No, the games were great but that thing was terrible. My biggest problem was no grips on the stick and the huge hole for the VMU.

Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.

Where is RDR2 60fps next gen patch

Mr_cheese1d 7h ago

To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not

I mean Resident Evil 4 has had longer legs and still hasn't done anything like this.

GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.

No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.

I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.
