They looked really uncomfortable, much prefer the new PS2 style.

They were designed for a new look but not for the comfort of game playing so they dumped it.

I'm pretty glad they did a U turn on the boomerang design. TBH that thing really did put me off PS3 when I first saw it. Doesn't look at all comfortable to use.

You can connect seven controllers, but you need three of those to be connected via USB connectors. Also, what game would you really use seven people? Not a first person shooter. Seven-way splitscreen? Lol.

Now for a game like Smash Bros, that'd kick ass.

i think a lot of the sports games will do good with the option of playing with all your friends instead of the usually winner keeps the controler and loser passes it on...
