Haha I'm not going to say you can't, just be responsible and pour some in my cup.

Yea the whole deal w it being at a frat house is: summer break, spacious, Internet everywhere, cheap and I know most of them.

So when you say making noise to change over to the PS3, is it a full blown argument for it?

Because i'm a PS3 user and I really don't think i'd fare well at all in this tourney using the Xbox's controllers. I'm not sure the same could be said about Xbox users on a PS3 controller. The only drastic diffferences in controllers are the d-pad (which is already known to be an annoyance to pad players) and the different sized attack buttons. I could bring a setup if you need a PS3 setup, but if the tourney is 360 only then I don't think I'll fare well at all.

Thanks for the question and interest.

I have access to one ps3 and access to 5 xbox 360. So I would need commitment from 2-3 ps3 users we could use their ps3 all day.

I'm all about pleasing everyone, lol, and providing a fun experience.

Yuna, Juggs , all other ATL players - can u guys commit to attending? It's literally in your backyard tournament wise. Need rides?

This is a perfect solution. however the store is sold out at the moment, and being it ships from Asia, it might not even make it to you before the tourney anyways.

For the converter you would need a wired 360 pad to trick the 360 into thinking a 360 pad is being used. So if you are serious about this, get a wired 360 and i'll let you borrow one of my xconverters just for this. let me know asap tho!

And good luck on this tourney. :china:

Well if you have an xbox wired controller that I can borrow so that Tim's xconverter below can work we can do that instead, because if I can play on a PS2 pad i''ll be fine. I just don't want to inconvenience you TOs.
fyi...

I don't have a wired 360 pad, but if Pig has one, you can send me one of your xconverters to borrow for the tourney. If it's not too much to ask, can you send two xconverters, because my twin is also thinking of attending and he plays on PS pads too, we can easily find PS pads.

If Pig doesn't have an extra controller, I have no problem with bringing my own setup, just so that I don't have to inconvenience you to be without a converter.

I replied to your PM, but i can probably send you a wired 360 pad with those converters. Dont bring a PS3 set up to a 360 tourney ;) I'll be in touch soon
 

BEENEEWEENEES

Thou shalt be slain!
REALLY wish this was ps3 (i can bring a set-up if need be) but i'll try to make it out nonetheless. techwood's only bout 35 minutes from me.

If I can get 3 ps3 confirmed and no one has a major problem w it then I'll make the switch.

We need one more also I'll bring the xbox 360s as well

For some reason I thought the tourney was sooner, but try and let me know asap about the switch. if i dont have to mail those converters, that saves me $10 lol. thanks, and again good luck.

You need just PS3's confirmed? tvs too?

Well I hope you can count me in on my PS3. TV though might be a hassle though because I was talking with my mom yesterday and she didn't want me bringing her TV.
 
I'm really intersted in attending this, and would definitely be willing to let you use my ps3 so i dont have to play on the shitty xbox dpads :) Let me know. I only have 1 regular wireless controller though, the other two are goofy xbox layout wired ones that suck.

Is it like this one:


Because GDF and I have two sixaxis controllers plus that controller (total of 3 PS3 pads), and we could let you borrow that one for the tourney if you show up.

It would totally be your fault for allowing yourself to play on someone elses controllers.

Players need to be educated, so again, read through even this thread & read this: http://testyourmight.com/forum/showthread.php?1785-The-X-Converter-PS1-2-to-Xbox-360-FOR-XBOX-360-MK-PLAYERS!!
 
Tim, if we dont end up swapping to ps3 can you please send those converters. I'm in for sure if I can play on a Playstation pad.
