That’s so the RF wireless can do its job of linking between the Gamepad and the PS3. Workin' the GameĪbout the only thing you have to do that the factory controller doesn’t require is inserting the USB receiver into the first USB slot on the PS3. That you can adjust and modify the way the controls work (no loading in a disc to do it either) is just another example of why this Gamepad rocks for a PS3 wireless controller. But there’s also a Home button and other control button settings so that you don’t have to ever go near that console (except for inserting/removing a disc or turning the console on or off). I should mention that the F60 works the PS3 the same way the factory controller does, but having an optical wheel function and so much control navigation choices, things just keep zooming by your brain as you lock on what to do instead of thinking about it. Energy saving circuitry built in, of course. Two ‘AAA’s power the whole shebang and there’s an on/off switch and glowing blue light to indicate power is coursing through. Even the “hidden” L2 and R2 buttons on the gamepad’s underside give a positive response when pressed. There’s a nice feeling to the controls the buttons have a springy click to them the triggers a solid press the analog sticks just enough resistance to being pushed. Bigger hands will find the controls closer and more accessible too. But that’s good because every button and knob and trigger are where they’re supposed to be, and for smaller hands it’s a better grip. The F60’s not all that big - it seems a tad smaller than the factory PS3 model. Whip It Out - This PS3 Wireless Controller, That Is (5 out of 5) The F60 also makes the standard PS3 wireless controller look like the stuff left over in the stables (do we have to get graphic?). Thrustmaster gives you the F60 - a limited edition Ferrari wireless gamepad that might look nice in the box but plays nicer once it’s taken out. Or underutilized when that PS3 gets kicked on. Have you ever gotten so twisted up from a driving game or trying to blast every last Zombie in a 360 degree arc that you felt like whiplash had set in? Then you know that the freedom of movement that wireless PS3 controllers give can’t be understated. Anybody who says that there’s no difference between a wired and a wireless PS3 controllers needs to get out of Dodge now.
