  The Sixaxis Wireless Controller (SCPH-98040/CECHZC1) (trademarked SIXAXIS) (unofficially known as PlayStation 3 Wireless Controller) was the official wireless handheld controller for the Sony PlayStation 3, later to be succeeded by the DualShock 3. In Japan, individual Sixaxis controllers were available for purchase simultaneously with the consoles launch, without a USB to USB mini cable. The word sixaxis is also used to mean the motion sensitive technology in PlayStation 3 controllers. The word Sixaxis (contraction of six axis for the directional movements) is a palindrome. Sixaxis controllers can also be used on the PSP Go since both use Bluetooth and can be connected by registering the system and the controller on the PS3.
  History
  At E3 2005, Sony showcased their boomerang design for the PlayStation 3s controller. Accompanied by much criticism, most of which were for its looks, this design was later abandoned. Sony later stated that the original controller was very clearly designed as a design concept, and was never intended to be the final controller, despite what everybody said about it.
  The boomerang design was replaced by an altered, wireless version of the DualShock 2 controller at E3 2006. The Sixaxis controller is currently being phased out, and the DualShock 3 is the new official controller, which in addition to a vibration feature will still include Sixaxis functionality. However Europe would still have the Sixaxis controller during the summer of 2008, as the European Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PlayStation 3 bundle includes a Sixaxis. The Sixaxis is no longer being produced.
  Feature and design changes
  A major feature of the Sixaxis controller is the ability to sense both rotational orientation and translational acceleration along all three dimensional axes, providing six degrees of freedom, hence the name. . This became a matter of controversy, as the circumstances of the announcement, made less than eight months after Nintendo revealed motion-sensing capabilities in its new game console controller (see Wii Remote), led to speculation that the addition of motion-sensing was a late-stage decision by Sony to follow Nintendos move. Further fueling the speculation was the fact that only Warhawk shown at E3 that year demonstrated the motion-sensing feature.[citation needed] Also, some comments from Incognito Entertainment, the developer behind the motion-sensing PlayStation 3 game, Warhawk, said that it received development controllers with the motion-sensing feature only 10 days or so before E3. Developer Brian Upton from SCE Studios Santa Monica later clarified that the Incognito had been secretly working on the motion-sensing technology for a while, but did not receive a working controller until the last few weeks before E3.
  The Sixaxis features finer analog sensitivity than the DualShock 2, increased to 10-bit precision from the 8-bit precision of the DualShock 2. The controller also uses both analog and digital signals simultaneously at all times during gameplay. The frame beneath the L2 and R2 buttons has been omitted and these buttons have been made trigger-like, with the range of travel determining the degree of analog input rather than the range of pressure. In the place of the Analog mode button switch of previous dual analog models is a jewel-like PS button with the PlayStation logo, which can be used to access the home menu, switch controller inputs and turn the console or the controller on or off.
  LEDs
  The top of a DualShock 3 Sixaxis controller, LED lights on the right.
  A row of four numbered LED port indicators are on the top of the controller, to identify and distinguish multiple wireless controllers. Due to there being only four player LEDs on the controller itself, multiple indicators light up for players 5, 6 and 7 (for example, if the 4 and 1 indicators are illuminated at the same time, the controller is assigned to Player 5). While the PS3 is turned on, pressing the PS button will bring up a menu displaying the battery charge of all synced controllers among other options.
  Sixaxis accessories
  Battery packs
  The battery pack for the Sixaxis Wireless Controller is 3.7 V Li-ion battery with cable. The pack provides up to 30 hours on a full charge of continuous gaming for the wireless controller. It is recommended not to dispose batteries (which differ slightly in voltage). It also ships as part of the AC adapter charging kit and as part of the Sixaxis/DualShock 3 battery charger. Third party rechargeable battery pack kits are also available. Although, the USB Charger can also connected to AC Adaptor and PlayStation 3...

The Intense Madness Of Your Pop-Culture Devotion [Past Fashion]

• Jul 12, 2010 from jezebel(Jezebel) in Entertainment
  A few weeks ago, I asked our readers to send in pictures of themselves showing their obsessive devotion to everything from bands to books, and naturally, they delivered. Inside, a roundup of your fellow readers amazing and often hilarious contributions:From commenter Spike49: I wish I could tell you these were actually "past" fashion, but I would be lying. These are of me, my sister and friend less than two years ago at the NKOTB concert in San Jose. The t-shirt I am wearing- I'm the jackass in the hot pink arm warmers- is an original from 6th grade that I never got rid of. My sister got her yellow one off ebay. My friend found a sheet set on ebay and had her designer friend make her a dress out of them. There were 4 others with us, and we all looked ridiculous. We honestly thought a ton of people would have done it up like we had, but we were very, very wrong. NOBODY else embraced the absurdity of it all, they were all totally dolled up like they were waiting for Joey to see them from across the arena and take them home (which let's be honest, is the real absurd behavior). We are not an easily embarrassed bunch so we had a blast and everybody wanted to take our pictures. The real tragedy is that there are no pics of my denim jacket that I wore that night COVERED in NKOTB buttons, tiny ones, giant ones, the works."
  From commenter cosmictuesday: "This photo was my submission to the Mad Men photo contest last summer. I didn't win, but I was in the top ten for a coupla days before the winners were announced."
  From commenter Bye June: "My friends and I were about 14 when these were taken. We went to Warped Tour mostly for Good Charlotte, and spent a good part of our day waiting around for/stalking the band. It paid off and here's the proof. It doesn't look terribly superfan-ish, I don't think, but when Joel threw a water bottle out into the crowd, we all dove for it. My friend caught it and it sat on her shelf for a couple of years before being thrown out with the recyclables. Oh, and identities have been hidden to protect the innocent/mildly embarrassed."
  From reader Nicola: "I have had a few major obsessions in the past and have the photos to prove it, for years in High School I was obsessed with Marilyn Monroe, I read over 30 books on her, saw all the films even "A Ticket to Tomahawk" where she had the illustrious part of "Chorus Girl #4" I had books, bags, and pictures, dear God so many pictures decorating my walls."
  From reader Tazzy: "This is a nice little fan tattoo that spans across the back between the shoulder blades. It represents the love of Avenged Sevenfold. The roman numerals inside the bat wings actually spell out A7X. My daughter designed it."
  From commenter Bunnya69: "I am a HUGE Linkin Park fan and in 2007 I got to see them for the very first time. As a bonus I got to meet them, where I asked lead singer Chester Bennington to sign my arm below the LP logo that I had tattooed a few months earlier. He did and for the rest of the concert I covered it over with a wrist band I had. The next day I had it permanently inked where I can always look upon it and remember what an awesome time I had."
  From reader Helen: "I take a yearly trip to the University of Georgia in Athens with my dad to catch a game. I didn't attend the school, although my dad did, but I'm a huge fan of their football team. In this photo I'm wearing at least 4 pieces of UGA themed clothing, have a pass for the press box, and am sitting on the back of a bulldog sculpture. I have pics like this going back years."
  From reader Patricia: "This photograph documents a night in November 2009, when a group of college girls went on a date with Robert Pattinson. A Robert Pattinson life-sized and made out of cardboard. For the opening weekend of the second Twilight movie, my friends and I met up and put body glitter all over faces (so we can sparkle like vampires!) and headed off to the movie theatre, where we got so many picture requests with Robert Pattinson. I'm on the far left here with four of my friends, joined with two preteen Twihards, one very inappropriate little boy, and of course, the one and only Robert Pattinson. Cut to earlier this summer, when Jezebel did a story about the girl brought a Robert Pattinson life-sized cutout as her prom date. I showed it to my friends, and we all agreed that our was much, much better. I mean, we bought him his own ticket, and all."
  From reader Hannah: "We put on all our Argentina gear that we'd purchased that day on the street (note my necklace made from a one peso moneda) and were wandering around like complete clowns. At least one of us is actually Argentine. Too bad we were eliminated :("
  From commenter AnnVeal: "Once upon a time there was a Jezebel commenter named Ann Veal. Ann Veal loved Avatar: The Last Airbender a little much. So when she heard there was a live-action movie, she rejoiced. She could practically taste the awesome. (It tasted like chocolate frosting and Sokka)."
  "She followed...
