    Can anyone recommend the best place to get an adapter to use a 360 controller on a ps3, and are there any adapters that are better than others?

    I was going to order one online, but wanted to see if there might be any in bricks and mortar shops, preferably around the Dublin area.

    No way, there is nothing like adapter to connect Sixaxis to X360 or in other way... :(

    Actually that's not true. There are two ways to get the 360 controller working on the PS3.

    The first is the Cross Battle Adapter which lets you use the actual 360 controller itself.

    Alternatively you could pick up one of the new PowerA controllers and enjoy the best of both worlds.

    WOW! Sorry lads, I was 100% sure that's impossible :o

    This all-round pad looks awesome!

    Its one thing the PS3 lacks, a proper controller. Feels too flimsy in comparison to the 360 controller. Might give this a shot myself!

    I have to say that I much prefer the PS3 controller to the xbox one. The PS3 one sits nicely into my hands.

    That adaptor is pretty cool though.

    Geez, almost 2 months after the original post. What took you? :P

    Thanks for those links. I'm not mad on the Ps3 controller. I think it's actually the fact that it's not as bulky as the xbox one, that I have a problem with.
