Do people play your PS3 without permission? Lock up that Sixaxis

You read correctly. Lock the Sixaxis. No, no, the controller itself doesn't have any sort of fancy locking feature, but a new, mostly worthless, peripheral has been showcased at Taiwan's Computex Taipei 2007 event for hardware and peripherals. This peripheral locks your Sixaxis or DualShock by its analog sticks. There's a three-digit code to unlock your controller, but since the thing appears to be plastic, there are always other ways to get to it.



Our question is this: who cares? The only people that should consider this are those with young siblings who either screw up your game or haphazardly delete your game saves. If you've got a lot of roommates (assuming you're in that college demographic) and they play your PS3 more than you can, it might be an all right investment. You'll definitely come off as a jerk, though. Thoughts?

It sucks, it has no use as I see things. I just dont see the point - who the hell is going to buy this crap?

I know lol. Instead of buying this and if you really didnt want people touching your controller. Just hide it.

Lol. Waste of money. Just say u lock it then forget your code. Whos gonna help you then

Yeh this is very fool proof... Lol
I doubt it would stop anyone
And its a waste of money
It might as well work as a stand to keep your controller from sitting on the floor...

lmaoo this thing is stupid and a waste of money there is a million other better ways ..

I don't think that its such a big deal if other people start using your PS3 controller. If they steal it however, this thing isn't gonna help, they can just take the whole thing and work on cracking the measly 3 digit code later on.I don't think that its such a big deal if other people start using your PS3 controller.
