Nothing is technically wrong with the stock PS3 controllers, but then again nothing is technically wrong with a roller ball mouse either. If you can have something better, why bother using a cheap alternative with worse specs? The new Logitech Cordless Precision PS3 Controller offers deluxe features for a relatively cheap price.

Using 2.4GHz RF technology, the controller can control your game from distances up to 30 feet away from the console. While some controllers don’t come fully functional with the PS3, the Precision even comes with the special PS button for one-click menu accessing. Much like the stock controllers, the Precision comes with dual analog sticks and even has the D-Pad on its left side that works with compatible games. For $39.99, give yourself space to stretch with the Cordless Precision. — Andrew Dobrow

We came across yet another Wiimote mod and couldn’t help ourselves to share it will all of our fellow gearheads. Budding mechanical engineer Chris Williams spent his weekend doing something only us gamers can dream about. Creating yet a new interesting way of controlling your Wii.

A note to Kotaku from Williams:

I’ve always hypothesized that the “mystery” button (un)connects an as-of-yet unreleased clip that would allow you to attach your wiimote to the Classic Controller. The idea being that such a thing would be good for (a) getting the wiimote out of the way and (b) for any games that may want to have a mix between dual-analog controls and motion-sensitive controls.

So what does this mod actually accomplish? Clipping a classic controller onto the Wiimote sensor. Hmmm…interesting. — Andrew Dobrow
