If your are player 1, 2, 3, or 4, then it displays that number, but 5-7 display two numbers. (e.g. 7 Would display 4 and 2; 5 would display 4 and 1.) WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008+ use up to 7 controllers. No split-screen games work with more than 4. That help?

The unusual limitation of 7 comes from Bluetooth standards as opposed to Sony standards. Bluetooth receivers can support up to 7 devices.
Granted, few companies take advantage of this... ability. I'm sure there are games where you could host 7 people and not have it be a cluster*bleep* of splitscreens.

That's what I did, Valo, I tried to assign the controllers and got all that junk 7a BS.
Not surprising Wiki doesn't have the info. I rarely find what I what to know there... and if I do, it's false.
But who in their right minds would ever use 7 controllers? Most games don't support more than 4
Yeah, I don't have 7 gamer-savvy friends...and $700 for 7 controllers is a bit much. I paid that much for the console I guess the idea is they bring their own controllers.
Robert Ninja, I believe the key is to press the PS button and assign controllers. You also need to register them by plugging in with the cable first. I found the system very easy to use, provided you know how.
Oddly enough Wikipedia doesn't mention how many controllers it uses. :\

If people say it's 7, they're prob right. when I was at my friend's house with the entire GH: WT set and two controllers, it sorta messed up and got confused. On the assign control options it had 1a, B, 2, 1A, A, 9,
I dunno wtf happened. It pissed me off because I couldn't get the controller with the rumble to work... it just sat there blinking hysterically at me. It was a mess of controllers. And get this... I was a trying to feel the rumble in Silent Hill 2. The irony. That has to be the most solitary game to play on your own... and here I am with more controllers than games.

The most amount a console has ever supported is crap? What's wrong with you? It's like saying the Bugatti Veyron's power is crap. It's not crap, it's the best money can buy
no i was referring to the odd number rather than the actual quantity.

Its 7 at most but i never see any other games that support it except for some sports games.
