At least with an Xbox 360-styled controller which goes by the name XEOX, a wireless gamepad for your precious PlayStation 3 console.
Don’t take me wrong, i love my DualShock 3 which is the reason why i never tried playing a game with an Xbox 360. So, if there is something similar of what i can enjoy with that Microsoft counterpart, i do want to take my chances. Let’s see what we got here.
What makes this controller so different is that it’s the first pad out there that likens the style of the Xbox 360 controller, although it’s tailored specifically for PS3 enthusiasts. How about the form factor? Well it does look identical to the black wireless Xbox 360 controller that comes bundled with the Xbox 360 Elite, but it has a few, not so major changes.
A turbo button lies just to the right of the d-pad for rapid-firing, while the much familiar PlayStation symbols on each of the buttons differ slightly from Sony’s official pads. Instead of colored symbols, Speedlink has decided to go for a simple black and grey design.
You’ll also notice that the central, circular button, which opens up the XMB, is illuminated in Xbox-green when the controller is turned on and if you look at the control from arms length the ‘XEOX’ branding actually give you an idea of..Xbox.
