 Other improvements over the Sixaxis July 10, 2008
30 out of 31 found this review helpful
Here are some other improvements I have noticed over the old Sixaxis pad :
- The plastic case is not so shiny, and feels less slippery if greasy.
- The plastic case is stronger and doesn't creak.
- The L2 and R2 triggers seem slightly easier to press in and the plastic is more grippy, so your fingers don't slip off so much.
- Clicking the analog sticks in feels slightly easier.
Obviously it also rumbles, and don't worry about the extra weight, it's not much different to a Dual Shock 2.
Rumble me fingers July 9, 2008

The new DualShock 3 controller is well worth the investment.
The contoller is slightly heavier than the sixaxis [which is still retained] because of the inclusion of rumble motors. The rumble itself is more subtle than the DualShock 2. Most games support the vibration including the PS 1+2 titles played on PS3. The effect on the battery life is hardly noticeable.
The new pad does improve the gaming experience and it is far more comfortable than the PS2 pad. Worth the money I say.
Brilliant!!!!!! PS3's Are Far Better With One of These!!!! July 1, 2008

I bought 1 of these months ago gt it shipped from Canada i think only cost 35 around what it'll cost to buy over here anyway. The controllers are brilliant hardy heavier than the sixaxis and still have sixaxis and vibrations which also works on a lot of games that have already been released prior to the release of the controller and it really makes a better gaming experience and makes you feel like you're actually there my recommendation is buy 1, buy 2, buy 3 depends on how many you need lol and sell your old sixaxis controller or trade it into game or cex or hmv or somewhere or even sell it on amazon and make sure you don't miss out on the new and better gaming experience this controller gives you!!!! And now PS3's will ship with these in the boxes from July 2nd 2008 when the controllers go on sale in the UK!!!!!!
Such an Improvement! August 5, 2008

I gave myself the choice to buy a Dualshock 3 or a game, and to be honest i was torn between it, i mean c'mon 40 for a control pad that just has the rumble feature added to it!
But i made the choice to get a Dualshock 3 and i admit i was slightly dissapointed with it at first, until i tried playing a game with the Sixaxis again, that is.
There is such a mega difference with fun in games with the Dualshock 3, i adore the controller now! i could not play with the Sixaxis ever again!
There a plenty of noticable differences:
It has rumble (obviously)
It is heavier, but not dramitically heavier, it makes the control feel much better and as others say not as cheap.
It has different plastic case, the Sixaxis is all shiny and slippery while the Dualshock 3 has a less shiny case and is much more firm to hold, its a small difference but it makes the control pad a hell of alot better!
The analog sticks are much easier to press in, a little push and it will go in.
The L2 and R2 buttons are slightly more inwards then the Sixaxis and they feel harder to push in, which feels much better in my opinion.
What can i say about the Dualshock 3? Well i can not play on my PS3 without it now! if you have a choice between a game and a Dualshock 3, absolutely go for the Dualshock, its a small difference but makes the PS3 just that much better to play on!
Buy one now!
MUST HAVE FOR A PS3 OWNER! August 1, 2008

This controller is fantastic and it is a good feeling to be able to get feedback when firing guns or being shot at. I just happened to get MGS4 at around the same time and was so pleased i had brought this. You must buy this if you own a PS3!
