XCM Cross Battle adapter plus RUMBLE
Customer Reviews:
I discovered this product after trying to find a way to play my PS3 using my Xbox360 controller since the layout of 360 controller is so much better with the offset analog sticks and triggers. It works well and was just what I was looking for. I tried it out on a couple of games including Modern Warfare 2 and I didn't experience any lag. The rumble works good as well and I forgot that I was even using the Xbox360 controller. I recommend this if you want to use the far superior 360 controller on your PS3.

Basically, this product allows you to use a wired Xbox 360 controller to play on your PS3. I used this adapter to play Resistance and MW2.
The product I received differed from the one shown in the picture. It is not labeled as "plus" and the plastic used on it is transparent. However, it is functionally the same as the "plus" version (transmits rumble).
Things to be aware of:
1. You need a wired controller. A play and charge kit is not a wired controller.
2. Rumble functionality is included.
3. The Xbox Guide button serves as the PS Home button, and the lights on it still indicate which player you are.
4. The turbo functionality works and is simple to use. When activated, holding down the button is equivalent to rapidly pressing it.
5. The adapter includes plenty of cord length, so combined with the 360 controller's cable there should be more than enough length.
6. Most shooter games on the PS3 have firing your weapon set to R1, which translates to RB on the 360 controller. It is best to make sure that there is an in-game option to switch weapon firing to R2, which translates to RT on the 360 controller (This option is included for Modern Warfare 2).
7. Obviously, motion sensing controls don't work.
After playing MW2 on my 360, and then playing MW2 on the PS3 with this adapter I didn't notice any sort of controller lag.
Overall, this is a great product that is quick and easy to use and provides all the functionality I expected with no lag at a good price. The only thing I cannot rate is durability, as I have only had mine for 4 months.

Lets face it. The PS3 controller is horrendous for racing games. I use this for Gran Turismo and my overall times online have dropped by hundreds of places. I can more accurately counter steer the car and supply the exact amount of throttle. Definite buy if you want more substance while racing without going all out on a wheel. This thing also works extremely well with PS1 games so long as they support dualshock. Spyro is such a better game with this controller and don't even get me started at how much more fun the Crash Bandicoot games are. This will not work for PS2 games sadly.

This is a non BS straight to the point review using a PS3 slim. Got my XCM and a wired Genuine (not Mad Catz or Gamestop, or a no name brand) XBOX 360 controller from EBAY in the mail today. I have been playing for an hour at most and I must say it works PERFECTLY. The guide button, start, select, trigger, bumpers, etc work flawless. I was wondering if I might notice a delay or glitchiness or something. NONE WHATSOEVER. I am more than stoked. I turned the PS3 on with the XCM plugged in and the XBOX controller NOT plugged in. Then I plugged the controller in the XCM adapter......I am good to go. That simple. My only gripe is that the PS3 analog joysticks are more precise and the XBOX has a small dead spot in the center. I know it's not the XCM adapter because my other wireless XBOX controller has always had a small dead spot on the XBOX 360. It's not noticeable unless you have put some time into both the XBOX and PS3, but once again it's not the XCM's fault. I have to give props to Ben Heck for his amazing PS360 controller mod (that I failed miserably on) but this XCM was a more practical and affordable option. I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
