    I've asked this elsewhere but I think this is the correct place. How do I make the BigBen controller work with a PS3? We're new to this ps stuff - just bought our first one last week. Thanks for any help.

    Not sure - does it not have instructions with it?

    If its wired, I assume you just connect it to one of the USB ports.

    If its wireless, you probably still need to hook it up via USB to register it to your ps3. Then you can disconnect it, and it will work wirelessly.

    Let us know how it goes...

    It's wireless. Can't find any instructions and there doesn't seem to be a usb socket, unlike the Sony controller. When they switch it on all the lights light up and flash for a few minutes and then go off.

    Try going to settings and connect it like you would a headset. You might be able to go to Accessories Settings and find a Register Bluetooth Device option.

    Are you laughing at me? So can you remember the first day you got yours? If you have nothing to add just get lost.
