At least you can tell them apart that way.
The ones that explode are the fakes.

Someone should alert the local news.
It had been charging for over an hour when it just went off, said Bob Nixon. He had bought a generic replacement charger from his local Radio Shack after losing his original one on a trip. He was watching TV in his living room and he though he was smelling something burning. While walking around his home checking on the odor he heard the PSP battery Explode.

Counterfeit PlayStation®3 Wireless Controllers, which are practically identical in appearance to genuine PlayStation®3 Wireless Controllers, have been discovered in the market. SCEA advises consumers to be cautious when buying PlayStation®3 Wireless Controllers from uncertain sources as the quality, reliability and safety of counterfeit products is uncertain, and in some cases, may be dangerous.
That does looks exactly like a PS3 controller.DMPrince said:

Vamphuntr said:So... when someone is going to find a hack for the PS3 using a PSP, are they gonna disable your PSP's access to you PS3? PSP interacting with a PS3 has been found by to be potentially dangerous by SCEA.
Does that include the Pelican PS2-PS3 adapter? If so, I will be pissed.dallow_bg said:Only a few PS2-PS3 controller adapters have stopped working after the update.
Not all of them, and I haven't seen anyone claim another kind of USB device has been "disabled", unless someone has seen otherwise.

If they disabled my Saturn controllers I SWEAR TO GOD...

I have a few generic PS1/N64 X USB adapters and a FS3 Arcade Stick. I'm updating right now. Will report back.LongDongJunon said:Jesus Christ my radio shack PSX to USB adapter may be useless now too.

Would this have happened if the PS3 hackthing wasn't around? Probably not.LovingSteam said:From the PSGroove thread:

Is the hack based on Sony's code? Hm, didn't know that. I figured it was exploiting a security hole, like most hacks/jailbreaks.The Faceless Master said:Would this have happened if Sony didn't code it to happen? definitely not.

Well played! :loludivision said:Why would you buy a third party controller anyway? You're not a pirate, perchance. Are you?

I see. And yeah...Sony should have known better than to piss of Linux people. :lol As long as my MadCatz SF4 stick works and my games play properly I won't mind Sony and Linux people battling it out to the death.Dragona Akehi said:No it isn't using Sony code at all. It is a reverse engineered USB repair stick. It isn't exactly a security hole, when Sony designed the PS3 around it.
Don't forget many serious hackers, such as marcan, only got into PS3 hacking after Sony removed OtherOS.
You still have vents, not good. Sony needs to block those off too.Dai101 said:

You know, if a police officer fires into a crowd in an attempt to take down a suspect, the public are probably not going to look favourably on the officer, even if they should totally blame the guy he was after.Ploid 3.0 said:People are hacking the system, they are defending.
