ps3 prototype controller mod
Wow, now this is interesting, how many of you guys remembered the original PS3 prototype controller?
Well some very clever chaps at benheck, in this case forum poster HotDog-Cart, has let us imagine how it would of been to have actually had that controller, rather than the simple (if it ain't broke update it) Duel shock 3!
"What I basically did was take a cheap PS2 boomerang-ish shaped controller, and take its guts out and modify a REAL official Six Axis Controller and put it inside the shell. I also expanded the shell 15%.
I got the controller painted black, so it would be a batman inspired "Batarang Controller".
Please excuse my picture quality. My 5mp camera thinks brand new batteries, are dead. Also, excuse my bondo job. It was my first time.
You can see the white PS button. I didnt put any image there due to copyright reasons."

I think it'd be pretty nice to try that controller out.
Still, I like the Dualshock 3/SIXAXIS.

I like the boomerang style controller, wished Sony made the PS3 controllers that way. Or at least make this as another official alternative to the classic style one that's in circulation right now.

How can there be copyright reasons?

I believe from some of the follow up posts, he's going to make more to sell them, so perhaps that's why he didn't put a logo on there.
Its wired due to not having enough space for the battery, so its constantly connected via USB. And from earlier posts he was working on a pc driver for it, but hasnt finished it.Do me a favor plug me into a sega.
