Retailer Amazon.com on Fri. discounted Sony Corp.'s Playstation 3 Sixaxis wireless controller to $39.99 in the latest retail promotion for the console.
The price represents a savings of 20 percent off the original $49.99 MSRP.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Amazon is reliable, why not pick this up if you looking for a new controler? I bet Walmart fallows preaty soon?
trying to get rid of the overhead to make room for the rumble version of the Sixaxis
i agree with selling current stock to get ready for the rumble...makes sense to me to grab 2 more, then when the rumble does come out pick up one for a total of 4 controllers....anyone wanna play?!
Here it comes CONSUMERS demand, Sony delivers!
This is the Sony we all know and love!

@calderra
Suppose that the firmware 1.8(upscaling) wasn't demanded by consumers, more games weren't demand by gamers, rumble in the controller wasn't demanded by consumers, getting more exclusives(Haze, rumored Capcom and Konami exclusives)
This is the Sony from the PSone and PS2 era not E3 2005 to PS3 launch Sony, times are changing just keep watching
Um...also Sony has always had a new format on EVERY console...usually the more popular ones at that time...PSone(CD from cartridges)...PS2(DVD from CD)...PS3(Blu-Ray from DVD) but you refuse to see the trend
you're such a tool. How about Sony ripped me off and lied to me by saying rumble wasn't possible in sixaxis, and it was so last gen.
And now I have to replace all of my controllers bc of it.
