Does anyone else hope we can use the new PS4 controller with our ps3s?

Ive seen a comparson pic of the ps3 vs ps4 controller and the new one looks so much more comfy to hold with better triggers,wider grips etc. 

 

I know for obvious reasons that we cant use ps3 controllers on the new ps4 console but if we could use the ps4 controller to play our ps3 games it would be awesome!

 

Anyone else think so?

It would be cool but I doubt it'd be possible.

The PS3 controller is just finefor the PS3.  And I doubt it.

If you really want to play PS3 games with the PS4 controller then Gaikai will make that possible on the PS4.

I guess it could work if they made the options and share button the start and select buttons or something. It would be an okay idea, though I have no problem with the PS3 controller.

Yeah, probably won't happen. Your best bet is to go out and buy a third party controller that you feel is more comfortable.

Probably not, but I am hoping that the PS3 Pulse and Pulse Elite Wireless Headsets will be compatible with the PS4.

Most 3rd party controllers are terrible. I do love the dualshock but im 6foot6 with big hands so it can feel really small.Im guessing a 3rd part company will probably make a dongle of some kind to make it possible,
