phantom controller

last night i entered my room and noticed ps3 was on... i had not played anything in about 2 or 3 days... turned it off and turned it back on and it ran a system file check for a min... everything seemed to be ok then i turned it back off and it turned on by itself.. this happened a few more times before it seemed to me that my sixaxis had become possessed took sixaxis outside of house far away from console and problem has stopped... has this happened to anyone? and is the dualshock 3 decent or should I look for a new sixaxis?

Haha weird. Do you have PS+? There is a feature that turns your console on to download new stuff automatically I think. I have +, but I turned this feature off as I don't have a ton of HDD space.

so I bought a new controller today fully charged it while downloading that new gotham beta, played it for a bit then turned ps3 off... it turned back on again by itself... apparrently my old controller was not to blame... don't have ps+... no idea what's causing this and why it happens only some of the time.. ps3 is off right now and seems to be staying off

ROTFL!!! looks like u might have a visitor from the afterlife who's a hardcore gamer. :lol:

Your controller is possessed? Ahah, when you thought you already heard everything you read things like this.

Might be the ps3 that's possessed :? (just saying).
