New PS3 accessories add a Joystick, use of Xbox 360 controllers

Posted in PS3 by Conner Flynn on December 21st, 2008

New PS3 accessories add a Joystick, use of Xbox 360 controllersThere aren’t many arcade-style joysticks available for the PS3, probably because there aren’t many fighting games on the console. That are worth playing anyway. Despite this, the XCM Dominator is headed our way. No price or availability just yet.

Another addition is this strange XCM Cross Battle Adapter hub. It lets PS3 owners synch up their wired Xbox 360 controllers and play games using them. It will cost you $40. This might be a little more useful since it’s a better controller, but won’t you be plagued by mapping issues? Hell if I know.

Those who are bored with their PS3 will definitely want to check these out.

    Sad how biased this report was…”bored with your ps3″…”better controller”…haha, even though the 360 controller is based off the PS3 controller with the left joystick moved up and D-Pad down? A little fanboyish? Haha, PS3 owns all, don’t be mad because you are to illiterate to use one.

    How can there be a mapping issue, the control layout is pretty the same thing, the only difference is the name of the buttons.
