  • The picture above is a XCM cross battle plus adapter. It was made to allow the PS3 system, take a Xbox 360 controller and be able to use it. This is now gone with the 3.50 update. :FU:

Owners of various PS3 peripherals, including (but not limited to) the Yobo PS3 Joybox, the XCM Cross Battle Plus Adapter and the SplitFish FragFX, are reporting compatibility issues after the release of PS3 firmware 3.50. Some conspiracy theorists believe the rampant failure of these devices is linked to Sony's ongoing battle to circumvent further use of the PS3 jailbreak, which requires a USB tool to activate.

1UP suggests that this issue may be a side effect of Sony's discovery (and subsequent disabling) of "counterfeit" PS3 controllers. A recent consumer alert on Sony's official website states that "SCEA does not support continued functionality of counterfeit or unlicensed controllers in system software updates and these devices may cease to function in the future because of system software updates."

The 1UP report adds that "no third-party controllers that are officially licensed by Sony" have been disabled in the latest update. Considering the affected devices haven't been officially licensed, it's unlikely that a fix will be offered. A SCEA representative told us that "SCE does not support continued functionality of unlicensed controllers.

Yeah it has already been confirmed that Sony disabled the use of 90% of 3rd part usb peripherals. Sony just take it too far when deciding how to patch an exploit:confused:. I' just got my new xbox 360 slim yesterday and won't be on my PS3 untill there is a way to get online with jailbreakSmile. Must say quite impressed with the xbox...and Halo Reach...it rapes MW2Happy lol
