Re: HKS Racing Controller For Playstation 3 (Eagle3)

My only problem with PS3 controllers is that the right stick is at the rear of the controller. I find this very uncomfortable when playing racing games. The 360 controller has the right stick at the front so your thumb is in a more normal position. I see this controller has some type of disc looking thing at the right front, if that can be used to steer, I will buy one for sure.

Right now I use a device that allows me to use a wired 360 controller with my PS3 for all racing games.

Re: HKS Racing Controller For Playstation 3 (Eagle3)

Oh please, please let this be a good solid product and not some crappy Mad Catz type of controller. I don't have a wheel for my PS3 and with F1 2010 and GT5 coming out I was anticipating using the stock controller for racing. I have a Logitech MOMO for my PC racing but the second it bites the dust I'm going the G25/G27 route.

According to Amazon, $45 and a September 28th release date.

Having got fed up buying steering wheel/pedal devices due to the way they break too easily this seems like a possible alternative. Unless like Bubba_Zanetti says it turns out to be a naff gimmick.
