It'll still support tilt though right? Calling it 'Dualshock 3' almost sounds like they are replacing the sixaxis completely.

Why would they completely replace the six axis when they have games in 2008 that uses six axis like mgs4? Doesn't make sense so don't worry about that lol.

lol, yeah what I meant was changing the name of the controller seems kind of unorthodoxed. Sixaxis refers to tilt, Dualshock means rumble, I suppose the "3" means it's upgraded to support both. But whatever, it's a good step for Sony nonetheless.

I hope this is true, I've been waiting for this for awhile. Hopefully it will have strong rumble, so you can actually feel it (unlike Wii).

well if they do, i want them to make it more ergonomic. like the old boomerang design, not practical but it looks really comfortable.

Bit of a stupid question some of you might think but it wont replace our current sixaxis will it? We will still be able to use the one that came with our ps3 on the new games that are being released at the same time as the rumble?

Well yeah... the only thing that matters in the controller is the six axis you don't even need rumble... rumble is just there to give you a more feeling to the game.

The amount of times Ive put the controller down and its knocked the L2 or R2 and dropped a grenade on cod3 or fast forwarded my music. Still during gameplay I prefer the triggers.
