So if your anything like me (someone who gets all antsy right before
the next big game drops) then your probably gonna buy Killzone2 as
soon as it hits stores.And if your anything like me then you love
playing a good fps, just not on SixAxis/Dual Shock 3(SA/DS3).Don't get
me wrong, I think that Sony's controller is great for everything
else(especially fighting games),it just sucks for shooters.Now before
anyone starts breakin' out their jumbo size bottles of
Hatorade,remember,this is just my personal opinion and I understand
that some people probably love the SA/DS3 for fps and thats ok.Those
people are just wrong.
So what is a person like myself going to do on that beautiful day
that Killzone2 drops?Well, I'm going to play it with my Xbox360
controller of course.Microsoft originally built "The Loaf"
(the OG of xbox controllers, a joypad so huge that only people with
hands big enough to palm an NBA basketball could hold it comfortably)
just for Halo,which as you know is an fps.Okay I don't know
if that last part is really true or not but it sure seemed
that way.Ha,next thing you know I'll be saying that Microsoft made the
Xbox360 more powerful just for Gears of War! But I digress...
So,you might be asking yourself,"how is he gonna use an Xbox360
controller on a PS3?" and that is a good question.So here's the
skinny,about a month ago a company called XCM released a peripheral
called the "Cross Battle Adaptor".It's a small blue box with
switches on it (for turbo) and a usb port for you to plug a wired
Xbox360 controller into it (yes, it has to be wired).After that you
simply plug the usb chord coming out of the adaptor into your PS3 and
your PS3 thinks it's a wired SA/DS3.Now you can play fps on PS3
without feeling like your in a thumb war everytime you strafe right
and aim left.
You can buy the adaptor here or here.
Happy hunting.
