I've really missed the rumble feature (it's strange to have it taken away after about a decade of being standard), so I've already imported the Dualshock 3. It only cost 10 bucks more than a regular Sixaxis, and I don't mind about the battery life - I mean, it's not like charging them is that hard.The_Pig_Hostage
I'm with you, Hope I get mine by this friday so I can play some Uncharted with rumble this weekend and like you said charging is easy, is not like you have to buy batteries for it.
if its more exspensivvve, less battery life and you dont really feel it..is it still worth it?jasopan
I can answer that. No, I am going to get an SIXAXIS non- rumble controller this weekend,I dont have alot of x-mas cash so a rumble controller is out of the question
Being big on the 360 this past year and every other console with rumble the past 7+ years when I first picked up by PS3 controller I was sad with no rumble, it doesn't feel right. I guess the best way to describe it is it doesn't feel like im connecting with anything, and thats why I had a Dualshock 3 imported.cleotis_max
Well I dont know if this is old news, but I heard from a gaming podcast that MS paid the company that does the rumble tec ( I forgot the name) So that they wouldint give the rumble tec to sony so they had no choice, but to release a control with no rumble. Untill sony paid them so that they can get the tec again. Back to topic the DS3 feels so more much right in your hands then the non rumble.
I don't really care about rumble or motion sensing. I just want a controller that has some weight to it and doesn't have the stupid triggers. The L2 and R2 triggers on the ps3 controllers are about useless.

MS's deal with Immersion was that they wouldn't settle out of court with Sony. This deal gave Immersion some os MS's monies, and seemingly screwed Sony out of rumble. Sony LOST the lawsuit, THEN licensed the tech from Immersion, bypassing their agreement with MS brilliantly, letting them keep MS's monies. This made MS cry. ;_;

I would've loved to see their stupid crying faces lol
Are the DS3 controllers heavier than the sixazis, because I much prefer the weight of the old Dual Shock 2wilko1971
The DS3 controllers are heavier. I will say the weight is just right. Sixaxis is too light, i feel.
