PS3 Controller Issue

[dmacgreg37]

Is anyone else having/have had a problem with your controller disconnecting randomly. Both of my PS3 controllers have been doing it lately. I plug them in, and still the four lights just flash as though it's trying to pick up a signal and can't? I've only tried it on NCAA 2009, as I haven't played any other game in the last 2 days (since it started). Anyone know what I can do? Also, anyway to save the game going on?

Re: PS3 Controller Issue

if u are referring to playing while having ur controller plugged in to charge, then yeah i have that happen a few times lately. then i had to press the PS button again to activate it. i think it was because the battery was real low.

and save what?

It actually starts when the controller I'm using isn't plugged in. It's like it's dead (even though they aren't). Then, I plug it in, and it still doesn't work. Just flashes all 4 lights. It's got to be something to do with my bluetooth not picking up signals.

well when its dead and u plug it in u have to give it a minute to get a little life in it.

Both of my original Six Axis controllers randomly disconnect during gaming. It's rather annoying. I have no problems with the Dual Shock.

Are you able to reconnect them, or do you ave to shut right down? Mine won't let any controller reconnecxt without a hard shut down. I didn't do it for a few weeks, and has started again. Oh well, I have a warranty if it's my hardware.

They re-connect on their own. It's weird. I'll be playing a game and then I'll lose all control and in most instances the in-game camera will start spinning around wildly. A few seconds later everything will be fine.

I don't know if it's a low batter issue or what.

I have two D3's and one saxis and I never had an issue.

Re: PS3 Controller Issue

Maybe one of the firmware updates fixed my problem? Now that I think about it I don't think I've experienced it in a while.
