im on ps3 and my controler broke so i got a new dual shock 3 and it only works when the usb is not connected if it is the controler doesnt conect to the console its realy annoying as i like to charge while playing and it is very bad if you lose control mid fight

When the controller turns off, just disconnect the cable from the back of the control press the Home button and reinsert the cable

Haven't had mine disconnect yet *Touch wood* it's probably because it's new. But there's still time for it to mess up

Oh and Thanks, appreciate the comment
