Well all of you may have heard by now about a little yahoo journalist from Yahoo.com that advises against buying a PS3 because of one factor. That factor is once the controller battery dies you have no choice, but to buy a brand new controller for $55. Yes, this "reporter" Anne Kadet with her brilliance thinks that once the controller dies there is no way of you know charging it or replacing the batteries since the controller does not take AA batteries like its competitors. She also goes on to say that the controller is you know what just read the damn statement.

Its all fun and games until the battery dies. Unlike its competitors, which use replaceable AA batteries, the PS3s remote control is glued shut. When the battery goes, Sony customers have to blow $55 on a new controller. Sony says theres an "environmental benefit" since gamers dont have to toss their batteries on a regular basis, but Isidor Buchmann, president of battery-equipment maker Cadex Electronics, says captive batteries are becoming common because its cheaper for companies to eliminate the battery housing and hatch.
Ok you see the flawed statements like the controller is impossible to open despite the fact there are 5 or so screws on the controller that are easily un fucking SCREW ABLE ! Jesus Christ this pisses me off when people claiming to be journalists or investigators write something up like this and have no fucking idea of what they are writing about than go and publish it. Yahoo is actually respected by some people, you know old people, and after reading that article will probably pass on the PS3, and buy their kid or grandchild a Wii or 360 now, all because Anne Kadet didnt know you can recharge the FUCKING CONTROLLER !
So here I sit hoping she retracts her article and and gives an apology for being stupid or being an alcoholic.
