Re: Microsoft Announces New Xbox Controller
To Gekko,
Yeah, the Ps3 controller lasts pretty darn long without a charge. I usually don't ever turn the system off too, unless I'm going out of town or something.
I remember when I used my mini USB for my phone and ended up losing it for a while... I played my system just as much as normal and the controler lasted almost 2 weeks. But it never even died... That's just when I got the USB charger back.
For a controler that has force feedback and motion controls, it's pretty damn power efficient. (If the system is in the stand-by/screen saver mode where the light dims, I just have to pick up the controler and everything lights back up because of the motion feedback)
I've yet to meet someone with a faulty Ps3 controler battery too. I think down the line it may be a problem, but by Ps5 they're likely going to have Ps3 backward compatibility anyway... if there's not already some new downloadable media store like the Wii/Ps3 has.
