Anyone knows if those logitech PS3 controllers are compatiable w/ PC?
The spec didn't say so, but I know sometimes their PS3 devices also work on PC (i.e. bluetooth media KB http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3616&cl=ca,en)

Those controller I am only at is this one-> http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/gaming/controllers/devices/848&cl=ca,en

If not, does anyone know any controller that works on both PS3 and PC?

I think that they may not be unless explicitly stated. The reason why I say this - I have this (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3848&cl=us,en) Logitech keyboard and the specs state it's compatible with PS3 and PC.

On the under side of the keyboard, there's a physical switch that I have to set to use it with the PC or PS3. My guess is that the signaling is different. With that in mind, my suspicion is that your controller isn't going to work with your PC.

EDIT: OK - I fail - looks like SkinnyPupp has a way to do it...

just a heads up if you already havent bought them yet:
it doesn't have sixaxis motion sensing so it wont work in some areas of your ps3 games that utliize that

and why buy that one when you can spend a bit more to get the official sony one (cause the logi one is 2.4Ghz)

I actually wanted it for PC, but i thought it would be nice if I could use it on my PS3 too.

Any controller that will work on PS3 will work on the PC using the link I gave you. So just get a Dual Shock 3
