Yep, so are video game companies guilty of stealing the idea of allowing 3d graphics on their consoles too. I think they also stole the power cord designs as well in NTSC they all have 3 prongs. And I can't believe it, they stole the idea to hook the console up to a TV, who would have thought?

me neither.

but sony has always done this. First it was the Analog stick, stolen from nintendo. Then it was rumble, also from nintendo. Now it's wireless, has sensitive buttons and a guide button. all of which where already on another controller. then they took another page from nintendo and made it motion sensing.

remember: good artists borrow, Great artists steal.

That's like saying Microsoft copied the 4 shoulder button interface from the PS2. And that Nintendo copied using DVD's from the PS2.

Lol Ps3 came before Wiida1on2

Wait the PS3's controller with the lights and motion sensing came before the Wiimote? No. Nintendo announces the Wiimote and Sony "changes" the design to incorporate those features. Remember the banana controller? No?

Stealing wireless, and a home button? You've got to be joking.

All the controllers this gen are wireless standard [well, not so much the 360] so I've no idea where you got that idea, and as someone pointed out the PSP had a home button AND the original PS3 controller concept had a similar button in the center.

Microsoft copied the 4 shoulder buttons. The whole DVD argument is void since discs were first used by Sega. The type of disc doesn't matter.

This who idea about stealing analogs and shoulder buttons is stupid really. In the game industry, companies take the new standard and improve on it. The things that nintendo put on their controllers were not completely unheard of, and the way MS and Sony implemented things were still different, even if it was just slightly, it was still progession. I think dual interior rumble owns rumble pack anyway, and I wont call nintendo a copycat for switching from rumble pack to built in rumble. Are car makers guilty of stealing round steering wheel designs? How many laptop makers stole the keyboard layout? How many TV companies stole remote control layout. Get over, these companies are making this stuff better for your enjoyment.

Dude, my router has 4 square lights, the same size, indicating which ports are being used. Would it be different if the PS3 port lights were circles? Would it be plausible if the port lights were all in seperate locations all over the controller? No. It's made of logical design.

It just makes sense to do it like that. You don't even need highschool education to figure out that it should be done like that.

Lol PS1 copied rumble from th N64??? I had an N64 and if you're talking about the "rumble pack" then you fail right there. The rumble pack pails in comparrison to the dualshock. Didn't the PS3 launch a bit earlier than the wii too? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

You mean NEC. The PC Engine was the first to have disc media technology.

You mean the Conceptual Design?

1. LEDare innovative, your not very wise.
2. The sixaxis was an old patent used as a replacement for the loss of rumble

There aint nothing wrong with PS3 copying features from other consoles, all companys do it. So it doesn't really matter...

More importantly, how much precious time did you waste making them diagrams?

Microsoft copied the 4 shoulder buttons. The whole DVD argument is void since discs were first used by Sega. The type of disc doesn't matter.

... I don't see the logic behind that. As each type of disc has dramatic differences from it's predecessors. DVD is now a standard - something people argue that the PS2 helped encourage near the beginning of it's life span - now the Wii has them, and the Msoft consoles as well. Now if something like ANALOG was a standard, and Sony used it in their controller, that's stealing, but DVD usage is not?

The TC fails so horribly with this thread. Even as an lemming i'm kind of embarassed lol. So TC, you think that it is a bad thing that a company like Sony is offering a multitude of what ar enow standard features for controllers to its customers? You would rather have a crap controller with no analog at all? No player slot indicator? No Home button? There is no honor in business, every company copies so they can offer the best they can to their customers which is the most important. Xbox 360's failure rate is incredibly high, PS3's hardware is the best this generation. YOU FAIL.
