DualShock 3 Black Wireless Controller

Vibration comes back to the PS3

Strengths: It shakes! It's also a SIXAXIS!

Weakness: Shouldn't have had to re-buy a controller that should have come out in the first place

The Dualshock 3. Vibration, a request asked for by many gamers when Sony decided it wasn't needed anymore. And after a long enough time, Sony decided to bring it back. And it works great. If you've ever held a Playstation controller in the last 10 years, you know what to expect here. The great buttons, controls, feel along with next gen sixaxis along with rumble. This is definitely a controller...

best ps3 controller since DualShock2

Strengths: It's a Ps3 controller with rumble feature

Weakness: Weights a bit more than the six-axis

this is one of the best controllers ever released by the Sony for the PS3, the DUALshock3. It features with the bluetooth cordless system and integrates the rumble feature which was unavailable in the Six-axis controller. The control is not as light weight as the Six-axis, but not as heavy as a Xbox360 controller. I recommend this control for the new coming games for the PS3 which are Dualshock3...

Must have PS3 controller

Strengths: High quality plus vibration

Weakness: None

This is a must have PS3 controller, especially if you are going to get MGS4. The main difference from the SixAxis controller (besides vibration) is that it is a bit heavier. However, the controller is definitely high quality and worth the purchase.

I love this PS3 Dualshock 3 wireless controller

Strengths: heavier than PS3 sixaxis wireless controller, so it's firm to grip.

Weakness: None

I brought this controller to add on to the original Sixaxis controller that came with PS3. I also own PS2 controller and that is the reason why I brougth dualshock. It is a little bit heavier than the Sixaxis wireless controller. This controller is a must for real game player. I love it and probably I will get this other one soon.

A great addition!

Strengths: +rumble! +only $5 more than SixAxis +includes tilt function!

Weakness: -should have been released from day 1 PS3 launched

Overall this is a really really high quality product. The rumble function is amazing and adds so much depth to games (like all of PS2's games), and the tilt function is in there as well. I'm glad PS3 was able to eventually release a rumble controller, because the original SixAxis just doesn't cut it.

They took it away, now we have to buy it back

Strengths: The rumble feature that was so popular with PS1 and PS2

Weakness: They took it away for the PS3!

It shakes like the good ole' days, but they took it away, and now we have to buy it again. It's little heavier than the SIXAXIS, but it works just the same.

If you liked Dualshock 2 you'll like Dualshock 3

Strengths: Performs just like Sixaxis controller but adds vibration support. Extra weight feels more natural.

Weakness: Doesn't come full charged in the package. Doesn't include a usb cable.

The dualshock 3 controller looks and performs just like the sixaxis. While the sixaxis feels light weight, the dualshock 3 weighs closer to a dualshock 2 or xbox 360 controller. The extra weight feels more natural to me. The vibration feature is automatic for newer PS3 games like Metal gear solid 4 but older games like Resistance need a patch downloaded before rumble works. Unfortunately, some...

The Best controller for PS3

Strengths: Includes vibration & feels more sturdy

Weakness: Had to reset couple of times

When I heard about this controller, I got real excited. To be able to play my PS2/PS1 games with original rumble experience on PS3 was fantastic. And it really turned out to be a great controller. Not only the rumble works great with old games, there were some current PS3 games also which already supported it. Besides the rumble feature, the controller also feels a little better in hand than the...

Replace your old sixaxis!

Strengths: Rumbles, better vibration details than the old ones, price

Weakness: Weight, potentially lower battery life, not much game supported (yet)

As expected, identical to the SIXAXIS non-dualshock controller. PROs: It virbrates in a much better detail than the dualshock2 IMO. It feels more lifely that I no longer feel there're only left or right motor spinning inside (playing MGS4). For $10 more, you get the rumble options in most new games. CONs: The weight bothers me a little bit even though it certainly feels more like a controller's...

Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller (PS3)

Strengths: Force feedback, right weight, backwards compatible to PS2 rumble

Weakness: Should've been included from the beginning, not supported in all PS3 games, no included USB cable

The Dualshock 3 is the second-generation PS3 wireless controller, adding force feedback to the Sixaxis controller. With the addition of the force feedback motors, the too-light feeling of the Sixaxis feels perfectly weighted now. The Dualshock 3 provides rumble for PS3 games that support it, though not all games do. Some older ones have been patched to support it, though it's supported in all PS2...
