help Sixaxis Controller - White FAQ
What console was the white Sixaxis Controller made for?
The Sixaxis Controller was designed for the PlayStation 3. It is a wireless gamepad with the familiar Sony layout of two analog sticks, shoulder buttons, and the four face buttons.
What does Sixaxis mean on the PS3 controller?
Sixaxis refers to the controller's motion-sensing capability, which detects movement and tilt across multiple axes. Games such as Gran Turismo 5 and LittleBigPlanet used motion controls in different ways.
Does the Sixaxis Controller have rumble?
Original Sixaxis controllers were known for motion sensing and did not include the vibration feature later associated with the DualShock 3. The exact behavior therefore differs from a DualShock 3, even though both are PS3 controllers.
Will a PS3 Sixaxis Controller work on newer PlayStation consoles?
Native compatibility with newer PlayStation systems is not guaranteed. The controller was built for the PS3, and using it elsewhere may require a compatible adapter, remapping tool, or supported game environment.
