Classics die hardNovember 25, 2008 Who didn't cringe a bit when Sony unveiled the unsightly, boomerang controller with the PS3, oh so many years ago? So when it was revealed that the controller was going to be the same shape & function as the DualShock 2, I let out a huge sigh of relief. But my relief was tempered by the announcement that there was to be no 'shock' in the new wireless controller. "Oh well," I thought, "At least it still 'looks' like the dual shock." But then I heard that the reason for no 'shock' was that it wasn't compatible with the sixaxis feature. Now I'm no electronics engineer, but I know enough to know that there are ways to counter such incompatibilities.
I thought correctly when they released the DualShock 3, Sony's next gen gamer's Excalibur. Same awesome design that fits oh so perfectly in my hand, same game enhancing vibration function as the DS2, and now with the sixaxis control feature & it's wireless! What more do I need to say about it? Sure there are other after market controllers out there for less money, but why?
Excellent Remote.November 24, 2008 Lightweight remote with rumble feature, which is what should have been included in the original packages.
Bought it brokenNovember 23, 2008 The contact under the square button was messed up and degraded over 1 day till it eventually didn't work. Got it replaced and no problems with my current one.
This had the strongest vibration out of the next-gen consoles, and feels pretty cool when combined with the six-axis control. One thing that bothers me is the joystick placement; it doesn't fell natual, but I got used to it.
Uh?November 23, 2008 It's a Dual Shock 3 controller. It works and does what is supposed to. Yay!
Great PS3 controller at an awesome price from Amazon.com!!November 22, 2008 Although this controller does NOT include a USB cable, this additional PS3 Dualshock 3 controller is just about perfect in design & practical utilization, and in price from Amazon.com.
A sure-fire hit for those PS3 Owners who need another controller for multi-player games! Keep up the good work Sony and you just might catch up to Micro$oft's "360" this Christmas Season...
