I read that there are numerous fake PS3 DS3 controllers selling on ebay for really cheap that could potentially explode due to the cheap battery, and you cant tell its fake til you actually hold it and see the small different details. With the new FW update it will also prevent the fake controllers from working.
Surely Sony doesnt wants is a lawsuit from a customer that got their hands blown off from a fake controller that they thought was made by Sony lol...which now reminded me of news about a guy that bought a cheap battery for his cellphone and it blew up on him as it was in his front chest pocket.
But yea, to those that bought real legit 3rd party controllers and have stopped working i feel sorry for ya.
