Lets face it. The PS3 controller is horrendous for racing games. I use this for Gran Turismo and my overall times online have dropped by hundreds of places. I can more accurately counter steer the car and supply the exact amount of throttle. Definite buy if you want more substance while racing without going all out on a wheel. This thing also works extremely well with PS1 games so long as they support dualshock. Spyro is such a better game with this controller and don’t even get me started at how much more fun the Crash Bandicoot games are. This will not work for PS2 games sadly.

I couldn’t find out this information anywhere so thought i’d include it as an amazon review for future buyers. I tried using the plug and charge 360 battery/cable (that plugs into usb essentially making a wireless pad wired) but it doesn’t work with this adapter. The light turns blue to signal its usable but the green lights just keep flashing as if its trying to find a synced console when you press the guide button.

Just fantastic, if you love the xbox 360 controller and you are now playing ps3, i’m sure you will love this item!

For those who love the Xbox controller, this is a godsend. Works great on most PS3 games but not on all. Keep in mind you need a wired Sony controller for this to work. We went out and bought one pretty cheap and it was worth it.

This does everything as advertised and I really have no complaints. Shipped and arrived quickly and very simple to use. Just make sure that you go into your PS3 settings and disable “auto shutoff of controllers.” For some reason if you don’t then the controller randomly disconnects. Do that and it works great though.

No cons really, just a suggestion for a future product. It would be really nice if the device allowed you to re-assign buttons, thus creating a custom control scheme. Do that and i’d buy another one.

This product is good and does what it says. I have had it for about 2 months now.

Bad – Need an xbox360 wired control; sometimes the ps3 wont recognize the adapter or the control don’t know wich(reason for the 4star); rapid fire is far away and you have to get up to switch it on or off(solution buy usb extension)btw I dont use it but I have tested it out and it works;

Good – Lets you use xbox360 control with ps3; rapid fire; no charging control; not that expensive; no noticeable lag; works with all my games (COD MW2; red dead redemption; fight night round 4; COD WAW)

If you prefer xbox360 control over ps3 then buy it.

First of all, I loathe the dualshock design and have ever since it was tacked on to the original playstation controllers. I also have hand/arm “issues” (medical in nature) that make gaming on the PS3 uncomfortable to be polite.

This product is easy to use. Turn on your PS3, plug this device into the PS3, plug a wired 360 controller into the device and you’re ready to go. It’s that simple. If you love the 360 design, this is a wonderful thing.

There are a few drawbacks, however.

One is that you actually need the wired 360 controller.

Another is that while in use the green LEDs (that signal what player you are) all flash while in use.

Also, there is no motion sensing for any game that may require it (I recommend the Nyko Zero to solve this).

Next, this adapter will not work with PS2 games played on the PS3 (if you have a BC model of PS3).

Finally, this item would have really benefited from a way to assign controller functions. As is, you are still forced to use the bumpers for firing in some games such as first person shooters. I see this as a design flaw in the dualshock 3 design where even devlopers have tried to accomodate for the less-than-adequate, and slippage-prone L2/R2 “trigger.” Unfortunately, the Cross Battle adapter cannot compensate for this unless the options are available in-game.

Thanx to this little piece of electornics, my $400 dollar bluray player, can now be used as a video game console as well. i was very hesitant to buy this, but i really wanted to play the God Of War games and i despise the PS3 controller, so reluctantly i made this purchase. and i couldnt have been more impressed… plug it into the PS3 usb port and start playing with the comfort of my 360 wired controller!

I just picked up the XCM Cross Battle adapter PLUS and it works flawlessly with my Sony PS3 Slim. Just connect it to your PS3, connect a *wired* Xbox 360 controller and you’re in business. No delays or hesitation, it’s very responsive. In fact, while playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (MW2) I’d sometimes forget I was playing on a PS3 as it felt like the same playing experience as the Xbox.

Three important things to know. First, you cannot use a wireless controller with a charge cable to connect. The charge cable simply charges the wireless controller, it doesn’t establish a connection between the wireless controller and the XCM. In short, you need a WIRED controller. Second, you cannot use an XBox headset that connects to your Xbox controller – the XCM doesn’t handle that (not that I expected it to.) Third, if you find that you lose your connection frequently, turn OFF the Controller Auto-Off power saving option on your PS3. It’s in the XMB (Cross Media Bar) under Settings > Power Save Settings > Controller Auto-Off.

The adapter is amazing in every way possible. It allows for a wired Xbox 360 controller to be used on PS3. I’m a 360 player but due to the fact that I have the red rings, my PS3 is my only option for the time being. The Dual Shock 3 in my opinion is a hunk of junk toy. Light weight and too small. I have large hands and prefer the Xbox 360 controller any day. The Cross Battle Adapter saved my life! Although I had to purchase a wired adapter with it, it was the best investment I had spent on my PS3. Although it has the Turbo feature, don’t expect too much out of it. Don’t expect zero recoil when playing a shooter. Overall this product was well worth the $30 (not including the other $30 you might have to spend on the wired controller).

I was soo happy when I heard about this adapter cause I missed the xbox 360 controller. XMC works great I can’t belive it I recomend it!! It was hard to get use to it but it’s good!!

The Adapter works great! The only game I have seen delay on was Uncharted 2 MULTIPLAYER. Its almost like your not pushing the stick up all the way so the guy walks instead of running. The single player part works great. The best to use this for is first person shooters like call of duty. The xbox 360 controller feels much more comfortable in your hand and for me, I actually played better on the ps3 using this adapter and a wired 360 controller. It feels more natural. The only this is, if you wanna use the rapid fire functions, i would suggest purchasing a USB extension so you can have the adapter sit in front of you so you can toggle it on/off. Great product overall!!!

When it worked, it worked great. Some times it would fail to work in the middle of a game. Had to unplug and reset the thing multiple times. Hope they come out with something more reliable.

Adapter did not work at all with my PS3 Slim. Light didn’t even come on when connected. Returned for another one but still did not work. I tried connecting it in every way possible in different order but it still would not recognize it. I definitely DO NOT recommend this to anyone.

Bought this solely to use my 360 MadCatz fight stick on my PS3 for Super Street Fighter 4. So far, I tested it on MvC2 (downloaded version from PS Network), works flawlessly. However, Will not work on PS2 games (I have 60Gig fat ps3). I cannot wait to play SSf4 in a few weeks.

Word. Not a bad price at 44 bucks, other places are selling them for far more money.

This is a non BS straight to the point review using a PS3 slim. Got my XCM and a wired Genuine (not Mad Catz or Gamestop, or a no name brand) XBOX 360 controller from EBAY in the mail today. I have been playing for an hour at most and I must say it works PERFECTLY. The guide button, start, select, trigger, bumpers, etc work flawless. I was wondering if I might notice a delay or glitchiness or something. NONE WHATSOEVER. I am more than stoked. I turned the PS3 on with the XCM plugged in and the XBOX controller NOT plugged in. Then I plugged the controller in the XCM adapter……I am good to go. That simple. My only gripe is that the PS3 analog joysticks are more precise and the XBOX has a small dead spot in the center. I know it’s not the XCM adapter because my other wireless XBOX controller has always had a small dead spot on the XBOX 360. It’s not noticeable unless you have put some time into both the XBOX and PS3, but once again it’s not the XCM’s fault. I have to give props to Ben Heck for his amazing PS360 controller mod (that I failed miserably on) but this XCM was a more practical and affordable option. I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

I have the Street Fighter 4 TE and a HORI-RAP 3 arcade sticks and tried them both with the XCM Cross Battle adapter. I was able to get the joysticks to work right from the start and I was thrilled that I might be able to play SSFIV with some friends of mine that had a PS3. I went to training mode and started trying some combos. I was able to pull off basic moves just fine, but when I tried to link stuff together which required some faster joystick inputs (QCF or QCB in particular) the buttons wouldn’t quite work. I opened up the input options in training mode to see what exactly was being inputted when I tried to do a fireball: I did a d,df,f+P on the joystick and it ended up inputting d,d,f,f+P. I tried it multiple times and anytime I tried to quickly pull off a fireball it wouldn’t input the d/f. A simple combo like mk,fireball would almost never come out.

So, long story short the product works in that you can get your 360 controller/joystick to work on the PS3, but it is far from lag free input. Maybe it works well with shooting games but for a fighting game like SSFIV it is absolutely worthless. It makes a $125 joystick feel like you are using a $39 joystick.
