Official Sony E3 2006 Press Conference Thread

Why couldn't Sony allow you to plug in your PS2 controllers to play PS3 games? Sure, they can't make any more rumble controllers. But if a developer includes rumble feature for those using a PS2 controller, and you plug in your ol' DualShock, no harm no foul. For games that use motion sensing, of course, you'd need to use the official PS3 controller.

I don't think the PS3 will have ports for PS2 controllers. PS3 controllers probably connect to the system via USB.

I know you can't. But I think they shoulda included the PS2 controller ports. Cheap and easy way around the lawsuit.

They'll probably release a USB adapter for PS2 controllers and memory cards. And a horizontal stand, too.
