PS3?

[Rag]

i doubt its real... i expect it to look a little more...hmmm.... flashier... shutup. Ever notice how lots of fake systems look better than the actual thing that comes out? probably not in this case...

[Gryph]

those pics are from a mock up in PSM. I saw these pics months ago. i know they are fake.

Well, that settles it. It's fake. Now let's just mock Sony.

I don't like the waste of batteries. Unless it has a rechargeable stand/battery, flock wireless.

I used to worry about that too, until I got my first wavebird for my GC. I've had it for about two years now, and I've only had to change the battery in my main (1st player) bird once or twice. And yes, it has seen extensive use. In fact, I bought a pack of 8 batteries as back ups when I got the controller, several of which have since gone to unrelated devices, and I still have 2 left.

Ah, my only experience is my Dad's wireless keyboard and mouse and that thing eats em up like Shamu.

It helps if you turn them off when you're not using them. :\

 

For some reason, wireless PC peripherals tend to eat batteries worse than anything else I've seen. No idea why. Haven't messed with the newer bluetooth stuff though.

I thought this thread was about the fake PS3? O well, just wanted to comment on the fact that it looks like a car tire

 

Edit:Or one of those little HOT WHEELS plastic race tire boxes

Done. Sony, you are a potato.

the thing that sucks about wireless is you gota kiss the rumble features goodbye..

[msldn]

Umm why do you have to kiss the rumble features goodbye? pretty sure wavebird wokred fine for it unless it doesn't?

[NeoMaster]

WaveBird is the God of Wireless. I should've bought one when they were on sale.

Wavebirds are amazing, but no, they don't have rumble features.

 

The only reason they leave them out is to appease Gryph - Rumble features are battery suckers since they involve moving parts.

[Thraxen]

Wireless controllers should be made with a switch to turn the rumble off and on. This way those concerned about battery life could switch them off. Logitech's wireless controllers for the PS2 and XBox are made this way.

At least it looks more real in those pics than the one from this thread, for anyone who missed it.
