5 out of 5 stars Rumble all the way   October 13, 2008
I only own dualshock controllers, so I cannot compare it to the sixaxis shockless controller. Works with PS3 and PS2 games. The design of the L2 and R2 buttons took some getting use with switching from the PS2 controller.

I tried to use the sixaxis for MotorStorm and had to turn it off. Is hard to keep the controller flat when laying in bed (the main way I play). It does add more "realism" to the game when you are able to actually use it.

Wireless is the only way to go.



5 out of 5 stars 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.


4 out of 5 stars 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.


5 out of 5 stars 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.


5 out of 5 stars 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!
