Uh? November 23, 2008 It's a Dual Shock 3 controller. It works and does what is supposed to. Yay!
Great PS3 controller at an awesome price from Amazon.com!! November 22, 2008 Although this controller does NOT include a USB cable, this additional PS3 Dualshock 3 controller is just about perfect in design & practical utilization, and in price from Amazon.com.
A sure-fire hit for those PS3 Owners who need another controller for multi-player games! Keep up the good work Sony and you just might catch up to Micro$oft's "360" this Christmas Season...
Excellent price for multiplaying necessity November 22, 2008 Amazon's got the best price I've seen for an dualshock 3 controller, so if you plan on playing with friends/family, this is an excellent offer.
Great product, great price November 21, 2008 At the time I bought this item, I could not find any better price than amazon.com. The controller quality is great, brand new. I am happy with this purchase.

If you've used a Sony Playstation at any point over the last 10 or so years you pretty much know what to expect with the Dualshock 3. The size, shape and layout of the DS3 is almost identical to the original Dualshock controller that was released for the Playstation 1. Chances are if you liked using any of the previous Sony brand controllers you'll also enjoy using the Dualshock 3. Similarly, if any of the previous Dualshock controllers weren't quite right for you then you'll probably dislike the DS3.
Slight changes have been made to the shoulder buttons and the addition of a'PS' button allows for quick start-up and shutdown of the PS3 as well as access to the PS3 X-Cross Media Bar.
The L2 & R2 shoulder buttons are now less 'button' and more 'trigger'. Personally I'm mixed on the new layout. The trigger design works great in certain games such as racing games; but can be less than perfect for platforming or action games.
The DS3 features the exact same motion sensitivity featured in the Sony SIXAXIS controller for the PS3. The major addition of the DS3 being the rumble feature. In using the DS3 for approximately 6 months it has become my controller of choice. Simply put the DS3 offers a level of immersion into games that the SIXAXIS cannot offer. The actual amount of rumble varies from game to game and many games even offer the ability to adjust the rumble feedback.
Also improved over the SIXAXIS is the feel of the DS3 controller. Because of the added weight afforded by the rumble mechanism the DS3 feels heavier and more appropriate than the lightweight SIXAXIS.
Because the DS3 is wireless it relies on a built-in battery to power the controller. Battery life is comparable to that afforded by the SIXAXIS which is approximately 8-10 hours. In my experience charging the DS3 to a full charge takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
The DS3 relies on Blutooth technology to power the wireless feature. Range is excellent and advertised to be about 30ft. Suffice to say that I've never experienced a problem with regards to wireless range.
All told the DS3 is the premier Playstation controller. Well built and sturdy the controller will last through many gaming sessions. I highly recommend the DS3 to any gamer.
