      The press release doesn't mention it. Maybe SIXASIX is one of those Sony-copyrighted techs that third-party manufacturers cannot use?

        They can still licence the technology, Which most likely they did.

    The 360 one looks crap, They changed the place of the analogue stick to the same as the Playstations, which is unomfy IMO.

    But I guess for people who do prefer the PS analogue stick layout its good news.

      You can switch the sticks. That's the whole point.

    Mad Catz never did make good looking controllers, IMO.
    Never felt comfortable, either.

    Nothing special, either.

    I was hoping for one compatible with both the 360 and PS3, but there isn't one so I'll pass. Also off brand controllers never work as good for me, and Mad Catz controllers I've purchased in the past don't last as long before wearing out as others.
