USB cable not included with retail SIXAXIS.

That's kinda mean.

-----

In a surprising move, Sony has opted not to include a USB cable with their retail SIXAXIS controllers. A USB cable is required to charge the controller's integrated battery, otherwise, the controller is rendered useless.

The retail PlayStation 3 contains a USB cable in the package, so at least consumers will have one included cable to charge controllers. However, if consumers wish to charge multiple controllers, after market cables appear to be the only solution.

It's so sad that this stuff doesn't surprise me at all anymore. I've just come to expect Sony to suck.

That's horribly selfish. I mean how can anyone just say "Oh we won't include a new recharger when you get a new controller." Evil bastards.

uhhh nintendo did the same with the wii. you'll have to buy your own batteries for the controller and the wiimote won't be rechargable. so stop pointing fingers at only sony.

Actually, I made a thread about how the Wii might kill/injure you and another about how Microsoft has some really bad games that are BC and some really good games that aren't.

I point fingers at everyone, guy
