Forums - Gaming - IGN: Xbox 360 Controller on the PS3

"popular opinion has shown that the 360 is home to the superior controller."

...if they're talking only between Xbox360 and PS3 then sure, but overall with the amount of PS2 sold, the Dual Shock is the more superior controller.

I guess this adapter would be nice for those that have both consoles and prefer the comfort or more use to using the Xbox360 controller. But I still prefer my Dual Shock as i did when i played on my PS2.

Would any of you be interested in this product?

It totally sucks that the PS2 controller does not work on PS3. PS2 controller was brilliant and much better than X360 and PS3 controllers.
I guess they make the new controllers incompatible so they can sell more controllers.
I would use the adaptor when I get a PS3. I  would buy the adaptor get to use my three XBox 360 controllers on PS3. I would not have to buy any extra PS3 controllers which are over priced for what they are.

How about a PS3 d-pad on the Xbox 360 controller?

There are a number of adapters to use your PS2 controllers on your PS3. Just google up it up and im sure you'll stumble upon a few products.

I would buy this.  The Dpad on the 360 is awful.

 



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

I'm not interested in that, not just because it is wired, but because I prefer the DS 3. I hate the face buttons, RB and LB and the d-pad on the Xbox controller, and I generally prefer the sticks on the DS 3, I prefer the fact that they have a larger range. The triggers are better on the Xbox controller, but I do dislike the fact that it has no name
