In that good doctor show, this girl asks for triple A batteries for her PS3 controller...
Wtf ? https://youtu.be/Z6gKiFSinW0?t=23s Inexcusable "Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: In the opening to Oliver, the audience is introduced to Shaun's neighbor Lea when she drops by his apartment asking to borrow batteries, as she's playing one of the Uncharted games and her controller is dead. Uncharted fans likely got a laugh out of this, as the mainline games are only available on the PS3 and PS4, both of which use rechargeable controllers and thus wouldn't require replacement batteries." ...

shows always get stuff about gaming wrong. I have lost count of how many times they have fucked up. there has to be many gamers on the set of these shows, but none of them ever speak up to correct things so this keeps happening. apparently all the people who write for tv don't game though.

I don't think there's any controller out there (let alone PlayStation) that uses AAA batteries. Also this only proves yet again that this network (CBS) doesn't give a fuck about being true to the characters they portray. They only care about the stupid 50+ year old parents / aunts / uncles / grandparents of said characters, and let them think they're "connecting" with their children / nephews / nieces / grandchildren. --- ...

I always wonder how shows can be that factually inaccurate, especially since gamers likely work on the show. Granted, it could turn out that the batteries being out is a ruse or something.

Giving the show the benefit of the doubt, maybe her controller really did need batteries, in which case he should slam the door in her face because only plebeians use generic controllers.

3. They even had her pretend to take the batteries out. That's what really gets me about this stuff. They clearly have to know that's not how it works, because the actress had to pretend it was working. I suppose you could have writers writing without ever actually looking at the props and seeing how practical their directions are (that's pretty plausible, actually), but even so, the error is immediately obvious even to a non-gamer. ...

it's a little different but one time on Big Bang Theory they had an episode about them playing the mmo Old Republic. but they didn't call it that. they said they were going to play star wars games all weekend and then one of the characters says "oh? which one?" and then the first person says "we're going to play the online game" "the online game? how exciting!" and so on. it was so dumb. no gamer would talk like that. you don't call it "the online game". you say it's damn name. also, they were supposed to be playing Republic characters but when they showed one character's character, she looked like a sith to me.
