What is that white flourlooking powder coming out under the ps3-controllers'READ

joystick?....about ALL of the ps3 controllers i've seen has it..why? is it to make it smooth? and what's up with the joysticks? they can get worn out

You're grinding the plastic when you move the joystick. Especially when you have to do circular motions. Bayonetta must be kiling my left joystick.:P

You mean, around the joystick, under the thumb pad? It's not coming out from anywhere, it's just the effect of your joystick rubbing against the sides of the controller. Basically, normal wear. Try taking it off with your index and check back some weeks after, it's going to be there again. It's just plastic dust.

The PS3 controllers secret cocaine :?

i have not seen any white powder coming out of my controllersMckenna1845

I've just been noticeing that the last few days wondering just what it was, thought I had spilt flour or dust on it in some bizarre chain of events. I don't think its sweat or anything like that as its appearing where you wouldn't touch, I guess its just wearing something off.

Its from the stick rubbing on the ring around it, some of the plastic is wearing off. Nothing to worry about it happens to all analog controllers.wooooode
