If you like to play games a lot, you probably already own a controller. For the GNOME desktop environment, someone developed an extension that shows you the controller?s battery remaining power percentage on the top panel, near the system tray area. The extension supports Sony Dual Shock 4 and Dual Shock 3 controllers, works with multiple controllers at the same time, and shows controller color too. Gamers will find it very useful if they want to see how much battery power is left in the controller, so they can charge it when needed.
