Default So those who bought a PS3 lately

did it come with 1 or 2 controlers? Looking to buy a ps3 as a gift but i want to get a pacakge with 2 controlers.


Also i think i'll give that PS3 remote... because most universal remotes are not compatible with the PS3 right?

Costco.

They most likely sell a package bundle where it'll include an extra game as well as two controllers.

Standard is 1. Most places will bundle a game and a controller (BestBuy has it with 2 games and a Blu Ray DVD right now).

You need to get the official PS3 remote or a Logitech USB unit to allow Logitech remotes to work.

it came with one. they only come with one if you don't buy a combo deal from a store i think.

i bought a pink ps3 controller with it, they are like $60 :squint:

and the damn cord that goes from the ps3 to the controller is only like three feet long, kind of need two, one to charge while you're playing with the other.
