The Dualshock 3 wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 system provides the most intuitive game play experience with pressure sensors in each action button and the inclusion of the highly sensitive SIXAXIS? motion sensing technology.

It can even detect natural movements for real-time and high precision interactive play, acting as a natural extension of the user's body.

5 out of 5 stars Works perfectly   December 1, 2008
The controller works beautifully,and the extra weight on the controller doesn't make much of a difference. Though it does feel a bit sturdier than the non-dualshock ones.


5 out of 5 stars Better than Sixxaxis control   November 29, 2008
This control dos not have nothing special, especially if you had used the Dual Shock 2 in the past. It is practically the same Sixaxis control but the vibration mode has incorporated and the weight is slightly heavy compared to Sixaxis control. It is very sensitive and very comfortable. The battery has a long life (runs out after 6 hours of intensive use).


5 out of 5 stars No complaints; much better than I expected   November 27, 2008
I'd always been an XBox guy. One of the things I preferred about the XBox compared to the Playstation was the controller. It's got a big, meaty controller that fills out your hands nicely, while I always felt like previous Playstation controllers felt light, cheap and flimsy. Well, a couple months ago, I bought a PS3. I needed a Blu-ray player and I figured I might as well spend a little extra and get a gaming system with it too. What I like about the Dual Shock Sixaxis is that it's a little heavier than previous controllers, and it just feels solid and sturdy in your hands. The buttons are nice and responsive, and they're well-placed from an ergonomic standpoint. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Classics die hard   November 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?



5 out of 5 stars Excellent Remote.   November 24, 2008
Lightweight remote with rumble feature, which is what should have been included in the original packages.
