Ezio. Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 PS3 Getting Third Party Xbox 360 Style Controller This October We’re very happy with our DualShock 3 controller for PlayStation 3, but it seems that others maybe aren’t so keen. Talking with Speedlink at GamesCom 2011, we discovered that the peripheral manufacturer is on the verge of releasing a curious new product, the XEOX Wireless gamepad for PS3. What makes this controller so unique is that it’s the first pad that mimics the style of the Xbox 360 controller, but it's designed specifically for PS3 gamers. In terms of form factor, it does feel identical to the black wireless Xbox 360 controller that comes bundled with the Xbox 360 Elite, but it has a few minor changes. A turbo button sits just to the right of the d-pad for rapid-firing, while the traditional PlayStation symbols on each of the buttons differ slightly from Sony's official pads. Instead of coloured symbols, Speedlink has opted for a simple black and grey design.You’ll also notice that the central, circular button, which opens up the XMB, is illuminated in Xbox-green when the controller is turned on and if you look at the control from arms length the 'XEOX' branding actually looks like it says Xbox. Having had our hands on the XEOX prototype at GamesCom, it does feel a little weird handling a controller that is so similar to Microsoft’s official pad, yet using it to play games on the PS3. But, Speedlink really does believe there's a market out there for this kind of product. The XEOX Wireless Gamepad goes on general sale in October 2011.

Ezio. Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Ps3 controller is just perfect the way it is suits for all kinds of games It was a pain playing bayoneta & Ninja Gaiden on xbox Its not going to get replaced.People who prefer XBOX 360 Controller could use it for their PS3 while those who prefer DS3 can use that.

GameAnalyzer Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 PS3 controller is way better it really helps in shooting. R1 is alot faster than RT. I wish Gears was on PS3. I would have never bought an Xbox for Halo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boss Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Troll attempt 2 success. Troll mode off. Honestly, I am thinking about that Batman AC controller that is coming for PS3. Its button positions are same as Xbox and looks way cooler than this one posted here. People say FPS games are much better with xbox controller, I want to check it out.

CarbonCore Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Hope it doesn't come with candy buttons and clicky bumpers, and that aweful d-pad, otherwise its good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameAnalyzer Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 lol no but for me Tapping R1 is alot faster than RT maybe i have short hand or fingers anyways I am sure you would've had more than one reason in spending 15k And No, Now i don't see there is no possible reason to buy Xbox except Gears as my old X360 died. And after using PS3 Xbox felt backwards(for me) No offense just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
