Very true. I managed to get (as a present) a 3rd party PS3 pad. It took batteries and also needed a USB dongle to plug into the front of the PS3 to use it. Luckily and very selfishly I managed to offer the £ difference and get a sony one.

I've never bought a 3rd party controller. Always found them to be cheap and never as good as the official ones.

Looking forward to it. Vastly superior to Forza in my opinion.
Interesting opinion, given you've played neither

I have in fact used a horrific Mad Catz controller for the PS2. And also a cheapo Logic 3 controller for the PS2. Both were as horrible as each other in my opinion. The plastic felt really tacky, the analogue sticks were too rough and I don't think all of the buttons were analogue on either handset I used, unlike the Dualshock 2.
If you were referring to Forza vs Gran Turismo I'm not comparing Forza 3 and GT5 as they obviously haven't been played by me yet. But going on Forza and Forza 2 compared to GT all the way up to GT4 it is my opinion that Forza is not as enjoyable.
And it appears that I didn't read what you were actually quoting, sorry about that.

I think he meant the series of both titles, Not the unreleased games.

I wonder what the bolded bit is about? Apart from the obvious.
Interesting, i doubt that it means anything in the long run though
That is very interesting, I hope we find what the architectural differences are in the 45nm cell.

I can't tell much difference between the two.
I doubt there will be massive differences, it's a console so games should run on all PS3's in the same way.
Software BC is somthing that might be the thing that is possible or different but other than that what else can it be, there is no point in having it running faster.
I had a Logitech wireless one for the PS2 that I won in a competition, it was actually very good. Exception to the rule really though.

Like the Nintendo DSi then.
Nah it was the same CPU just clocked higher, iirc a firmware update for the fat PSP set the cpu to the same clock speed at the cost of battery life.

Suprised no one has mentioned that FCC fillings show TWO entries for the PS3 slim.

Not suprising that they're planning multiple SKUs, but then it's worth pointing out.
