Gaming peripherals, such as controller triggers, the iCade, the GAEMS Suitcase, the Logitech G27, and some good headphones, can help boost your gaming experience for the ultimate form of immersion.<\/p>\n

PS3 Controller triggers (available from Takealot<\/a>)<\/h3>\n

One common complaint with Sony\u2019s iconic controller is that the PS3\u2019s triggers aren\u2019t arched enough.<\/p>\n

What this means is that players\u2019 fingers continually slip off the the triggers when pulled. While you can get used to it, there is a solution for those can\u2019t.<\/p>\n

PS3 controller triggers add a more curved finger placement to the controller, giving the snug Xbox 360 trigger feel, but on a Playstation 3 controller.<\/p>\n
