Those of us who grew up in the nineties playing our fighting games on arcade machines know that the combination of joystick and big buttons laid across a flat surface are the best way to control a fighter.

The Arcade Fighting Stick Controller Joypad from Mayflash provides that old arcade feeling with any fighting game on the PS2, PS3 or the PC. Not only is it great with all of the recent fighters on the Playstation 2 and 3, the Arcade Fighting Stick Controller Joypad provides old school verisimilitude to classic games when played in the MAME emulator. It even goes above and beyond the call of duty with turbo and macro buttons that let you perform amazing feats and program combos, and the weight of the Arcade Fighting Stick Controller Joypad at around 2 kilograms keeps it from sliding around when your mind is focused on the action on the screen.

Unleashing all of those moves and combos stored in your muscle memory takes you back to the first time that you played your favorite fighting games. The Arcade Fighting Stick Controller Joypad makes it easy for you to enjoy classic 2D fighters the way that you used to, get the genuine arcade experience out of newer 3D brawlers, and get the best fun out of your MAME arcade games short of buying an old fashioned arcade cabinet. To breathe new life into classic fighters, the Arcade Fighting Stick Controller Joypad is what any hardcore player needs!

How to Install a PS3 Battery Tutorial

The conventional battery in the Playstation 3 Sixaxis joypads lasts for approximately 20 hours of gametime from a 2-3 hour charge. With the Playstation 3 finally getting some decent games (Call of Duty 4, Eye of Judgment, Pro Evo 2007, Assassin's Creed...), you might find you want to squeeze a little more juice from your controller before you have to wire it back to the console to charge.

The 1200 mAh battery lasts twice as long as the original battery that comes with the PS3 - a massive 40 hours! It's also an ideal replacement if your pad has died and you don't want to fork out a lot of money on a brand new controller, or if you're finding the battery isn't lasting as long as it used to.

But how do you install the battery into a PS3 Sixaxis controller? It's actually a very easy three stage process:


1.Using a crosshead screwdriver, unscrew the 5 deep screws on the back of the PS3 controller:
2. Push the back of the casing forward to remove the back of the pad. This will reveal the battery. Unclip the wire that connects the battery to the controller Remove the battery from the pad:
3. Clip the wire from the 1200 mAh into the clip where it was previously disconnected. Slot the battery into place. Place the back of the pad onto the controller and screw back the 5 screws.
