It's bigger than the old one. Why?

It's sad how true this is. I still have a couple remotes that look almost exactly the same. My *** it's hideous.

But why is it so much bigger? Why?

I don't like it, but I have long controls already so I will just have to get used to it.

...the PS3 controller is wireless.

For all intents and purposes, it's already a remote.

In the same way an 360 controller could be used for DVDs as with the special remote it came with on launch, this controller acts as an alternative for the PS3 controller. That's my guess, anyways.

It doesn't have number buttons, though. The kids love number buttons.



It's what made the Atari Jaguar such a hit!

Unless it's an all-purpose remote I can't fathom what all those buttons could be doing. As far as I can remember the 360 remote didn't have anywhere near that much.

Standard version, universal media remote version (supports other devices too, apparently).

Come to think of it, Sony make DVD players and TVs, duh. Most likely does control all those devices.

It's a bluetooth remote, not infrared. No.

Oh ***, do not want.

Well then I have no idea. Who cares, anyway? It's a poxy media remote.
