Sixaxis Controller Android
Love playing games on your Android phone but wished that you had physical buttons to play your favorite games on it, well it turns out that it’s possible. Some developers have managed to create an app that allows your Android Phone to recognize the PlayStation 3 controller as an accessory which you can use to play games on your phone.

The app is called Sixaxis Controller, but it requires some setting up in order to work. However not all phones are compatible with it at the moment (so you’ll need to download the free compatibility checker first to see if it works). And in case you’re wondering – yes, your phone needs to be rooted. Sure sounds like a lot of trouble, but the novelty of being able to play your favorite PlayStation games (via an emulator) on your Android phone is worth it right?
