Yup, the light on the counsel spins then when I press the button on the remote they blink like 5 times, then the controller goes back to just blinking.

Sorry for the double post.

It doesn't, with an addon it does.
And besides..

PS3 > X360 where controllers are concerned.

PS3's controllers are all light weight..except for Guitar Hero ones..
X360 controllers are dang heavy, and more heavier when its wireless.

I'm not saying that its soo damn heavy I can't lift it up, Its just that I can't get a good grip of it.

Funny enough, XBOX users believe that the light weight controller is bad quality... because it's light. lol..

That argument makes me laugh.

Look, I'm not trying to troll you, but you honestly haven't a clue what you're talking about. And further up, you mentioned that Xbox controllers aren't wireless. You obviously don't own the system because the controllers are wireless and they aren't heavy at all. Everything you say about the 360 is either untrue, half true, or doesn't make any sense. You're a true blue fanboy, and I hate fanboys.

You and illmortal would probably get along.

Glad you got your SEXBOX working. XBOX uses a proprietary wireless protocol similar to blutooth to make it more difficult for people to crack the system or cheat. House hold electronics can interfere with it at times.

I'm a PS3 user and I hate the light controllers. I loved the weight in the old Dualshock controllers, the Sixaxis ones feel too delicate.

I really need to get the Dualshock 3 controllers.

You need a device to connect to the XBOX, and then wireless fun.
And that device comes separately..

The reason why I got a PS3 is because to code.. PS3 uses Linux, so I use it as a server, I installed XAMPP, and now I just.. use it for now and then..

I hated the Dualshock ones.. The vibrations nearly killed me. My first PS was the PS3..

The average Joe buys a video game system to play video games. If this is what you wanted a video game system for then the XBOX360 is not for you as it is difficult to crack and damn near impossible to install Linux on.

I don't like the light controllers either, I like the Dualshock ones. I like feeling something solid in my hands. The weight of the controller doesn't effect it's quality.

I'm a SONY Playstation Hardcore fanboy.
You think hacking a PSP is easy?
Its hard, especially if you do shit wrong..

I hate XBOX360 Fanboys, I have nothing to do with the Fangirls. :D

I own a PSP as well, in fact I've been quite addicted to Phantasy Star Portable lately. If you haven't played it, you should buy it. In my opinion, it's one of the best PSP games out there. Do I think hacking a PSP is easy. Well, that depends on what you think hacking is...
