Because lava lamp + PS3 controller = funky

Nope, nobody modded a Sixaxis and a lava lamp so you can control the direction of the weird globby stuff inside the lamp. We do have information about the next best thing: a PS3 controller that glows, akin to a lava lamp, minus the unparalleled heat.

The Lava Glow PS3 Wireless controller is filled with glowing liquid, but maintains all functionality of a regular PS3 controller, sporting the latest 2.4 GHz technology. They come in blue and red, so you can make sure you've got a color for whatever team you end up on in Warhawk or whatever. Kinda cute. Check it out, see what you think.

[Thanks, Microdot!]

1. That's phat. I need a controller with a turbo button, though. (Does anyone else miss the TURBO button?)

5. I saw these in some no-name electronics store a month ago... Didn't really wanna get one because I wasn't sure about the quality, but now that PS3Fanboy has recommended it, I may just pick one up. Or just wait to order a DS3 from playasia...

6. This controller is terrible, I own the wired version, it isn't nearly as cool as it sounds. The wired version, at least, has no tilt control.

9. @5

I wouldn't call this article a recommendation, I'd call it more of a "Hey, lookatdis.".
