    Err after revising for the month long period for exam prep, for the english exams known as GCSE's I went to my playstation to settle down for some hard kicking WFC action....and the controllers didnt work...I assumed they were out of batter, but they didnt respond to the USB either....help guys?
    The USB seems to be picking up on my laptop, just the controller wont activate...

    *note both of them died...I have no clue...

    The first model of PS3? Because that one has been around for about 5-6 years.

    Well speaking of.. my 360 controller is officially a danger now..
    Yesterday it started to smell burned and today was even worse!
    Luckelly its not a case of exploding batteries.. it seems like something is shorted on the pcb..
    *sigh*
    Its not like Im rich at the moment.. hopefully my warranty still counts.

    So you're socially awkward and you run from the first sign of danger?
