Not in general, no. But you can pair your PS3 in the Youtube app. That way you can search for videos and play them through your phone.

Hey guys,

Sixaxis controller app
Sent from my Sony Xperia Z
Get Sixaxis Controller on your phone. (This does require root if I remember correct.)
Use SixaxisPairToolSetup on your PC to overwrite the bluetooth mac adres the controller will be pairing with.
This movie may help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTbc2Se5S3A
Should work fine with the Xperia Z, tested it a week ago.
Now waiting for my Moga controller to arive.
Kind regards, Stefan.

Okay, thank you. I will root my device.
No problem at all.
Also note if you want to play PS3 with it again, hook it up to your PS3 using the USB cable,
This will overwrite the adres so it can pair wireless with your PS3 again.
Kind regards, Stefan.

I tried the xbox 360 wired controller with games like the amazing spiderman and Asphalt 7. Didn't work.
Which games did you play with it and how?
btw it is getting connected. no issues there.

the reason why you cant play the games is because the keys aren't mapped to the pad iin order for the game to recognise button presses.

[Q] Xperia Z1 + dualshock 3

Hey all. I have a question about dualshock 3 wireless connection with my Xperia Z1. Until i've updated my Z1 up to android 4.3 it works great, but it doesn't at this moment. I've tried to wipe all data on my phone and reflash new FW, but it still doesn't works.
My Z1 was italian. I've flashed it to russian 290 via flashtool. Then wiped it and reflashed Central Eu 290. But it still can't connect via bluetooth.
XZ1 tells me to disconnect cable from it, so it will connect wirelessly. But it doesn't
Would be great if you can assist me to solve this problem. Thanks!

Not sure if you have or not but try the SixAxiscontroller app on the play store, I've never tried the native controller app but i know that the sixaxis one works really well, it allows you to map controls to the screen for games that don't support pads.
Give it a whirl or at the very least the compatibility app.

[Q] Using Xperia Z as Playstation Controller?

I know it is possible to use DualShock 3 controller on Xperia Z,
But lets say I am missing a controller for PS3 (or PS4) and me and my friend want to play together,
Is there a way to connect my Xperia Z to the console and use it the phone as a controller?

[Q] ps3 controller connect xperia z3+

Hello , in the xperia z3 you can choose to connect a ps3 or a ps4 controller , but in the xperia z3+ you can only connect the ps4 controller , is there any other way to connect a ps3 controller to the xperia z3+
Hi, i'm actually wondering about the same thing. Have ordered the z3+ and it will arrive in about 1week or 2. If i remember correctly, there was an app on can buy at playstore which basically does the same, i guess i'll just try it out when i get the phone, and return the phone if the app fails.

Would be nice if someone with z3+ or z4 could test this, or know of a better free solution to the problem could tell us about it.
