PS3 Media Hub + Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this to complement my Playstation 3 console. It is well built, and comes with 2 adapters: one for the 40 GB PS3, and one for the 20,60, and 80 GB PS3s.

I think the adapters are mis-labeled (the labeling is molded into the actual adapter). I struggled to get the Media Hub to lock on to my system with the 40 GB adapter, but when I tried with the other adapter, it clicked right into place. The adapters have two small nibs that "lock" the media hub into place on the PS3 by way of the front air vents.

The Media Hub brings the total number of USB ports on my PS3 to four. With the 40 GB PS3, the media hub can only be plugged into the LEFT USB port. It molds perfectly with the PS3 face, and can be used when the PS3 is in the vertical and horizontal positions.

The only thing I would suggest for Nyko to improve is that the matte black finish should be gloss black to match the finish of the PS3. It's a minor quibble, but would improve the aesthetics of the unit. Also, the Media Hub only "adds" the capability for two additional USB devices, not three. The 40 GB PS3 has two USB ports. Adding this device brings the total to four, not five (since one of the existing USB ports is taken up by the device).

It is a very capable USB hub and card reader.

Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this controller after having issues playing Lego Harry Potter on my PC (windows 7-64).the installation was simple and the controller is excellent.I am very happy with this purchase and am starting to use it for other games now also.. certain games are definitely more enjoyable with a console style controller.. driving games and anything that's 3rd person can be played with one of these..

NOTE: be sure you install the driver before you plug the device in for the first time!there is a warning about this on the USB cable but just wanted to reinforce that..
