PS3 - Accessories Revealed

PS3 News by Lyndon M STAFF 591 days ago

Some of the extra accessories that will be available for the PS3 at launch have been found out.

First off, the controller has an official name now- SIXAXIS. It comes with a lithium-ion battery built in which should last about 30 hours before charging up again. You can play and charge using a USB cable, similar to the XBox 360´s Play ´N Charge kit for their wireles controllers. Extra controllers are expected to run about $45 USD each (which is comparable to other wireless controllers).

Here´s something many have been wondering about- how to get the current game saves from your PSOne/PS2 memory card onto the PS3. Well, Sony has a memory card adaptor planned which should be available at launch which will allow you to move your saves onto the PS3 hard drive. Suggested retail price may be about $15 USD.

Of course, for the movie watchers out there is the remote control. Designed specifically for Blu-Ray and DVD movie watching the remote falls more in line with the standard Sony look for the DVD player remotes. Expect the price to be about $35. This won´t be out in Japan until December 7 so it may be a bit longer for release elsewhere.
