5 out of 5 stars What can you say   January 7, 2009
Not a lot can be said really

Classic playstation style with the added bonus of being wireless. Beats Xbox controllers for comfort (in my honest opinion, as I own a PS3 and an Xbox360) and has the added bonus over the XBOX and Wii of not requiring batteries. They come with a lead to charge them with which plugs into the front of your console.

Only real issue is your console needs to be on to charge the controller, however if you use your blue ray player (or standard DVD's) you can charge it whilst you watch a film. You can charge whilst you play if you so desire but the cable is only short (approx. 1m) but it beats having to go to the shop to buy batteries.

5 out of 5 stars The original! The best! Sony Dualshock!   January 2, 2009

The original PS3 controller, DuelShock 3 is by far and wide THE best pad.

I have had the misfortune to play on a number of aftermarket pads that are manufactured by 3rd parties and although they do the job, they cannot compete with the sheer quality and durability of Sony's controllers.

The DuelShock 3 has been anticipated since the release of the PS3 due to the fact that is now the wireless Sixaxis motion control is coupled with RUMBLE!

If I were to buy a new controller then I would spend that little bit more and stick with SONY. I mean, a pad that that was given an Emmy Award for "Peripheral Development and Technological Impact of Video Game Controllers" must be half decent right?

The decision though is entirely up to you.



5 out of 5 stars MUST BUY FOR THE PS3!!   December 24, 2008
It's a great must have item to have. The vibration is very strong and responsive, and brings games alive! (like Call of Duty etc) makes the game much more immersive.
