The whole situation of PS3 controller woes gets more and more inconsistent. Due to this total inconsistence, I still maintain that controller disconnects are more random than anything, and are not tied to specific games or anything like that. Here is my latest experience.
Ratchet and Clank has had my name the past week, no surprises there. I have probably put, oh, let's say 5 or 6 play sessions into it so far, between one and two hours each. I experienced absolutely no controller issues until yesterday. Note that before R&C, my PS3 games were Folklore (glitch and disconnect city!) and Everyday Shooter (glitches at inconvenient times, no flat-out disconnects). R&C did not display any disconnection woes until yesterday, but between yesterday and today, it is almost at Folklore-like levels of disconnection and glitchiness.
Like I said, the lack of any discernible pattern, aside from it being tied to whatever game I happen to be playing frequently at the time, seems to indicate that this is completely random. Folklore and Everyday Shooter do not cause or egg on the problems; the fact that incidents happened then was coincidence, and I indicated their guilt only by association.
I can't believe it's now been a year, and Sony has not addressed this problem, nor made any real attempt to try to address it. Terrible.
