Not completely off-topic, I don't think. Alot of people that have PS3s also
have the 360.
I was looking around the interwebs this morning for an easy way to mod my
360 controller to use on my PS3. Some people would ask, "Why would you want
to do that?" The easy answer is that I don't care for the PS3 controller at
all for FPSers. I have no problems with the DualShock 3 SixaxiS for games
like Pure, MotorStorm, or LittleBigPlanet, but when I pop in a game like
CoD, I'm done. I don't know if it's because I'm so used to using the 360
controller, or if it's because I have Carpal Tunnel, but whatever the case
is, the DS3 cramps my hands right up. You'd think that after 10 years, Sony
would at least consider putting out an additional, all-together differently
designed controller, but they haven't. So while looking for an easy mod this
AM, I found this, the XCM Cross Battle Adapter:

The one draw-back I see is that you have to use a wired 360 controller, but
I can live with that. At least now I'll get more value out of the PS3 games
I received for gifts without having to buy the same games for my 360.
Here's some XCM links, and a link to where I bought my adapter, which was
$10 cheaper than everyone else:

I'm looking forward to the wireless version. Now THAT will be sweet!
