App allows user to use the PS3 controller in Android

A company called Dancing Pixel Studios decided to relieve the dirt we do on the screen of Android phones when we decided to start the fun in a game, she released the Sixaxis controller application, which allows the connection between Android and control a Playstation 3.


There is no doubt that smartphones are a very rich platform for games, casual or not, but the problem is that the controls on the screen or you take the vision of where your fingers cover, or take advantage of the screen to make even more dirty. But it seems that the staff of the Dancing Pixel Studios decided to create an application that makes the connection between the control of a Playstation 3 and the Android game passing commands directly to the physical control that can get away from the unit.

The application supports both the control and the Sixaxis Dual Shock 3, both the Playstation 3, to make gambling more interesting in the devices with the Google mobile operating system, Android. But there is a catch, since the application only works on devices that went through the root of Android and it does not work on newer phones such as Samsung and HTC. First you connect the application on a Windows computer and then connect the PS3 controller through bluetooth device and configure the buttons manually.

The application is paid, costs $ 2.64. But to see if your handset is compatible before buying, there is a trial version, which only tells you whether the app will work or not.
