Why would anyone do this? If I wanted tilt sensors in my 360 controller I would do it right and go with the Wii sensors, not the gimmicky ps3 ones.
Very cool, i like the xbox 360 controller feel better then the ps3 controller feel, i would do it if i had a ps3
How would you do those? Oh well the PS controller feels better anyway.
PS feels wayyyyyyyyyyy better!
360 feels wayyyyyyyyyyyy better!
the wii sensor is used better for a mouse/pointer kinda thing putting a wii sensor in it would work like *****, the ps3 tilt feature is much better suited for a controller
coming from a diehard playstation fan, with a ps3, i have felt the 360 controller which my friend who lives below me owns. needless to say, the 360 controller is MUCH more comfortable. obviously playing ps3 for only an hour wouldnt make much of a difference, but for multiple hours i would want a 360 controller. it fits the palm of your hand a lot better.
i grew up on the NES/famicom controller.
perfected my playing styles (yes even 1 hand street fighter) on SNES/Super Famicom.
switched between ps1 pad and ascii fighting stick depending on which character i am using on tekken.
felt every rumble with all my classic shooters on my ps1 model 7000's dual shock 1.
controlled snake through hours of tip toes, crawls etc on the pressure sensitive directional/action buttons on PS2's dual shock two.
even though i never use sixaxis tilt function on motorstorm, i happily completed the demo on rub-i-dub with greats scores.
i even use all controllers mentioned including my sixaxis on PC! i have bought/made every adaptors for all of em. and my PSP acts as a wireless joypad /mouse for my PC too.
