Well, I've finally gotten my DUALSHOCK 3. I've got to say, upon picking up this controller, you can certainly feel the difference. Comparing it with my SIXAXIS makes the SIXAXIS feel like a cheap plastic toy. The DUALSHOCK 3 features more weight due to the rumble component inside the controller, and it definitely feels the way a controller should.
I tested the new/old rumble feature with three SCEA games. Since I just bought the Omega Dawn and Broken Mirror booster packs, so I thought Warhawk, along with Resistance: Fall of Man and Motorstorm would be my games. I'm telling you, I was definitely shocked when the controller first rumbled. It's a feeling we haven't felt on our controllers in so long, but it felt good. I got smashed in Warhawk, and it rumbled, and my hands loved it.
Let me just sum this up. We can't really go in-depth when we are talking about a controller that features rumble and a new (right) weight. The only thing we can say is put down those SUXASSES and go pick up a DUALSHOCK 3. You'll like the way your hands feel.

I'm getting my DS3 sometime next week, I'm imporing it from Japan to Sweden since it's way cheaper. Man, I really can't wait to go GTA IV with a Dualshock 3 in my hands :D Five days off from school too, I just can't wait :D
Try it with UT3....its pretty ridiculous. Nonstop rumbling since the game is so faced paced.
I so want to buy a DS3 but am not going to. I already own two sixaxis controllers and I do not play with four people so as much I I will miss rumble I am not going to waste money on it. I wish though that Sony could make an add on that uses the USB port so people with the SA would not have to waste money on a new controller when there old one works fine.
Anyone know how a person in the US would go about getting that Satin silver one??
Its not wasting money because youll use that controller the most :)
As for the satin one, not sure. Supposedly they will be in stores but I havent seen one yet.
I plan on picking up one next week also along with (maybe) a copy of GT5 Prologue.
The satin version sounds nice but I did the non-matching controller with the PSOne and PS2 and frankly I felt very disconnected from the system by using a different colored controller.
Color me anal but I just like stuff to match.
