So, I've been using my original PS3 sixaxis controller for a while now and everything worked great, but yesterday it just went completely dead for no reason.
I mean, I didn't do anything unusual to it, didn't spill anything on it, didn't overuse it, didn't lend it to someone, it was just sitting near my console.
So, when I plugged it in using an USB cable - nothing, no charging (4 blinking) lights, no reaction whatsoever. I took it apart, disconnected the battery, then reconnected it back - didn't help obviously.
When I connect it to a computer - same stuff - no reaction at all as if it doesn't even exist but the battery is getting warm, so it's not the battery? And the motherboard is hot as hell.
WTF? Does it mean that the motherboard just decided to die for no reason?
