 Dual Shock 3 October 11, 2008
They should have shipped all PS3 with these from the start. Controller is noticeably heavier than the Six Axis, but it still feels good.
 the rumble doesn't work with call of duty 4 game October 6, 2008
this control doesn't work for some games, only the ones that support rumble. so far doesn't work for call of duty 4 and motor storm. it works for assassin's creed. those are the only games that i have.
Great Addition October 4, 2008
This product does a fine job of helping to enhance many gaming experiences on the playstation 3. It functions just as well as the standard controller with a little added weight and also a vibration function. This feature varies depending on the game it's working with. Battery life seems to be about the same as the standard as well. If you would like to not just see and hear but also to feel your gaming experience in your hands then this is the product for you.
IT'S BACK! October 3, 2008
I'm so glad that I got the Dual Shock 3 controllers!!! This is the way PlayStation games should be played. If you play Madden and are not using these controllers, you're cheating yourself. They only weigh a few ounces more, which is expected, and they work great!!! I got 'em in 3 days, thanks Amazon.com!
It wasn't broken, but now it's a bit dated October 3, 2008
The saying 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' would have been a fair response when deciding what to do with the next gen Playstation controller, and Sony seems to have agreed for the most part. The PS2 Dual Shock controller was easily the best design of any of its competitors. Unfortunately, Microsoft's mild tweaks to the Xbox controller were brilliant, and Sony's few additions were useless except for the wireless capability, and it even took them a while to get around to bringing back the rumble feature.
Microsoft smartly resisted overhauling their controller and recognized how to perfect the basic design by downsizing, rounding off some hard edges, and moving the black and white buttons as well-sized, nimbly responsive shoulder buttons. The PS3 controller is still a fine controller, and the best one for the Playstation, but Microsoft stepped out of character and actually made a brilliantly improved product (along with the Xbox itself) that now has, to my mind, taken the throne as best designed controller.
This controller coupled with a nice rubbery silicon covering for it makes it the perfect controller for the PS3, just avoid the Six-axis use whenver you can -- more gimmick than benefit.
