Not every game is compatible.
Oh thanks. Good looking out.
Not every game is compatible.
what ? no shiny controllers ?Boxed Dualshock 4 controllers out in the wild !
are...are we seriously bitching about the controllers package? You know the thing that we cut open and throw in the trash. Are you people collecting unopened controllers?
I can't believe people are actually bitching about packaging for a controller as if that negatively impacts their game playing experience.

That is terrible as well.
What's the big deal? It's ugly packaging. It's not like I care in the grand scheme of things. I wouldn't bring up that the packaging is ugly in some thread that has nothing to do with it or anything.
I don't care about the packaging, but I don't throw it in the trash either. Do many here do that?

Controller packaging? I can't even imagine... what exactly would you save? It's a ripped plastic shell when you're done, ugly for display, ugly for collection, ugly for anything really.
This packaging is definitely uglier than the DS3 packaging, but like... it's going in the trash for me. The packaging, that is. I understand saving console boxes sometimes, but the actual controller boxes.... that I don't get. If many people save those, especially with how they're packaged nowadays, that's news to me. But I guess it shouldn't surprise me: some people save everything.
Too bad the Blue & Red controllers have been delayed...well in Australia at least!
Not a fan of the packaging. Just more reason to consider canceling my preorder.
Are they selling them at GameStop now?
May be worth picking up early! Just to mess around with, get a feel, and get excited about November!
I assume this is why Sony let them out early. To give their more excited fans a chance to spend $60 on a controller they wouldn't necessarily have bought after they got the console.
Yep, when I move my PS3 to my office I'm probably going to connect a DS4 and use it exclusively.
Really hope these and the camera come out early so I can cancel my Amazon preorders and use my BB credit.
Not a bad game plan. My 2nd DS4 purchase is dependent on if I pickup Knack or not. However, if I saw this on the shelf right now I'd probably pull the trigger. I wouldn't mind giving it a go on PC and PS3.
Ok all you guys wanting to use this PS3 just back the fuck up and STOP.
The controller does NOT work properly on the PS3.
The playstation button doesn't work. Only one of the start / select (options / share) buttons work.
It doesn't work wirelessly
In some games, even when cabled, it asks "where's the controller?"
We don't know if sixaxis works.
We don't know if vibrate works.
It is currently no good to use on the PS3, a very VERY small handful of simple games will use it and you'll probably still need a DS3 nearby for other stuff.
I would love for it to work so fucking bad (and I don't mind the DS3) but you fellas just need to calm down.
PC owners however, might be smart to grab one, within 6 months there will probably be a good driver for it, with touchpad and sixaxis support.
You sure are concerned about how others spend their money.

People complaining about controller boxes...
He's right, though, that it's not a fully functional replacement for a PS3 controller at this time.
It's more concern over how people assume and don't always fact check, no one cares about others money.
I'm just trying to warn these folks who might think this thing actually is a viable option for their PS3 that sadly, that is not the case right now.
Trust me, if I could buy one right now to use on my PS3 for "dat next gen feel" I'd pick one up today.
Do you guys keep the packaging or something? Jesus.
All I've heard so far is FIFA which got patched to disallow wired controllers in September 2012.
Not sure how many other games got a similar patch, but I'm guessing the compatibility for DS4 will be quite broad on PS3.

Fair enough. I guess telling people to "back the fuck up and stop" just wasn't the best way to articulate a point in which you were sincerely trying to help people. My apologies for misreading you.
I still have my PS3 controller boxes.
But currently it's fully functional plug and play for PC, minus the touchpad and sixaxis right?Ok all you guys wanting to use this PS3 just back the fuck up and STOP.

Same here, but I guess some people think it's weird.
