Yes when your controller needs to be charged you can use the charging cable and still use the controller to play the game. Always make sure your system settings automatically turn off your controller when you turn off the PS3. Remember the PS3 will not charge the controller when it is off.

Usually if you plug the usb cable (controller charger cable) into the ps3 console and the ps3 wireless controller it will sync the controller with the console. I had this problem when I went to a friends house and brought my extra controllers. The Controllers just set there and blinked till I plugged it into his usb cable that hooked up to his ps3 console. Hope this helps
u can play it on ps3 but you can't use the ps3 controller
Turn on your PS3 by pressing the "power" button on the console itself. Then connect your controller via the charging cable. Finally, when on the XMB menu, press the PS button on your controller. Happy Gaming!
