 Sony PS3 Street Fighter IV FightStick Tournament Edition: Playstation 3: Video GamesA TOP QUALITY FIGHTSTICK

Reviewer Comments:

Fun: 

This fightstick is amazing, but certainly not worth anything over its original [...] price.

Mad Catz is going to make more and they said that their goal is for everyone who wants one to have one. Don’t be dumb, and don’t get ripped off. Be patient, these sticks are not limited edition.

Fun: 

Wasn’t going to leave a review, but seeing as how the first guy to review it doesn’t even own one and gave it 1 star for the most retarded reason ever (because people are paying 400 on ebay?), I thought I should give some balance as someone who does actually own one.

I have to say- I was not expecting this stick to be as nice as all the hype built it up to be, but I have to …(Read More)

Fun: 

This is my first fighting stick, and so far I haven’t had any problems whatsoever. The fight stick should be used for fighting games, such as, MK vs DC Universe, Soul Calibur 4, and of course with any Street Fighter game. I feel relieved that I don’t have to use PS3 controllers anymore, because it’s easier to do combos and my thumb doesn’t hurt anymore.

FYI, when you insert…(Read More)

The Dualshock 3 wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 system provides the most intuitive game play experience with pressure sensors in each action button and the inclusion of the highly sensitive SIXAXIS™ motion sensing technology. Each hit, crash and explosion is more realistic when the user feels the rumble right in the palm of their hand. It can even detect natural movements for real-time and high precision interactive play, acting as a natural extension of the user’s body. Dualshock 3 wireless controller utilizes Bl…(Read More)

 PlayStation 3 Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller: Video Games Get ready to rumble, even with PS 2 games!
 PlayStation 3 Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller: Video Games Tested on Playstation 1, 2, and 3 games - it works GREAT on all of them!
 PlayStation 3 Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller: Video GamesShould’ve been rumble from the start.

Reviewer Comments:

Fun:

I was already extremely happy with the Sixaxis controller, but I could not resist getting the DualShock 3. Not only do you get the rumble, but also, it feels much better in your hands, even for those games that do not use this feature. The rumble function is fun, but on top of that, it helps with gameplay, because “feeling” what is happening provides a lot more feedback than just …(Read More)

Fun:

Well folks, now that the dust has settled from the Sony vs. Immersion lawsuit, Playstation 3 owners are finally able to feel the vibe again!

I purchased this controller today and I knew the only way to properly road-test it was on the game that made the Dualshock famous, Metal Gear Solid. After booting up the game, I walked down the hallway and got spotted by a guard. As he shout…(Read More)

Fun:

The Playstation 2’s highly regarded DualShock 2 controller was considered by many to be the best videogame controller of all time. So when you’ve got a winning design there’s no need to change anything. However, because of a legal battle with Immersion over rumble technology, Sony was forced to offer their Sixaxis controller without rumble. The Sixaxis had the same Dualshock de…(Read More)

Reviewer Comments:

Fun:

I did not think I needed yet another remote control because I thought the six-axis had everything it needed for movie playing on the PS3 and, yet, I bought one. There were 2 initial reasons:

- my wife was missing a ‘magic wand’ shaped remote for playing movies
- Amazon had it at a great price in one of them lightning deals

I ended up using it myself and, in fact, using it for mo…(Read More)

Fun:

A must-have accessory for your PS3 Blu-ray DVD viewing pleasure! I love that it works without having to point it at anything, thanks to being Bluetooth… you don’t even have to be in the same room! (not that there is much application for the latter, but thought it worth mentioning). Anyway, it works perfectly and helps add to your PS3 experience. We have a nice universal remote a…(Read More)

Fun:

This Blu-Ray DVD remote for the PS3 is just great. It’s well laid out and the buttons are easy to hit. The best part is you no longer need to point the top of the remote in the direction of the PS3 since this is wireless. It makes Blu-Ray watching on the PS3 even more enjoyable. Some people complain about this not being a universal IR remote. Since I never cared for universal…(Read More)

Reviewer Comments:

A lot of people have written about the pros and cons of the PS3 vs. XBOX 360 vs. Wii. I’m not bothering with that, and assume you can find that information at elsewhere. I’m also assuming you can read all about why the PS3 would or would not fit your needs.

Instead, I’d like this review to explain what exactly this configuration is (there’s a lot of confusion about that,) and why I think it h…(Read More)

Fun:

I had sat on the sidelines of the next gen video games up until a couple of weeks ago. I had tried Wii almost as soon as it came out and was captivated by the motion sensors but the limited availability and sameness to the games as well as limited graphics was frustrating.

Reliability:
I own a video game store. One of the services that we provide is various repairs on most game consoles. In the last year, I have performed around 60 individual XBOX 360 repairs compared to 0 (zero) PS3 repairs. PS3 Wins Hands Down

Compatability:
The 60GB version of the PS3 is FULLY backwards compatible with PS2 and most PS 1 games. The new 80GB version has some li…(Read More)

Second Update 12/16/2008: UPS just dropped a package from Mad Catz. They didn’t fix my broken cymbal, they sent me an entirely new package, cymbal, mounting hardware and all.

No note included saying what was wrong, or anything, just a new cymbal. It looks like it’s been handled, which probably means that someone tested it out to make sure it worked right, before they sent it to…(Read More)

Reviewer Comments:

Thanks to the following tips from other Reviewers, it works like a champ. Like many others, I am using it with a Harmony 880 and I don’t care if I can’t turn the power on or off. You have to get up to get the disc anyway so who cares. But the command where I ask one of my kids to please get the disk and put it away seems to not work very well:)

I don’t know why anyone would buy this remote to use for what it is. Sony makes what is probably a better remote for controlling blu-ray or dvd playback that uses bluetooth technology, thus doesn’t require the usb dongle to receive the signal from the remote. The Sony bluetooth remote will work through entertainment center doors or walls, but the Nyko version will require a line-of-sight. Ha…(Read More)

Fun:

I looked at several options before deciding to go with the nyko. 1)The IR2BT, which is pretty much useless after one of Sony’s latest firmwares.
2) Schmart adapter, which which offers full control including power on/off, but costs over 100 dollars. 3) Nyko blu-wave, offers full control except for power on/off, costs 20 dollars.

For the price, this item cannot be beat. Harmony…(Read More)
