I was playing some Metal Gear Solid for PS1 on my PlayStation 3 earlier, and it convinced me to get a DualShock 3.

My first experience was when Phycho Mantis told me to put the controller onto the floor. I did as he asked and he started screaming at me that he can move it and telling me to "behold his powers". So basically all he did were some hand movements to try to move my controller with rumble, making him look like an idiot.

Then later, Naiomi made me put my controller up to my arm. I did, and apparently, I had received a massage via nano-machines. This made ME look like an idiot now.

Now if my PS2 hadn't been dead with disk read errors, I would have totally used that, but I'm stuck playing on my PS3 with no rumble.

Anyone else have a similar experience?

haha, i finally got my white DS3 the other day and it completly changed some games. take uncharted, its nice to feel a rumble when shooting/getting shot, when platforms are about to crumble, and also right before you're impaled in the jungle...

I just ordered mine from playasia last night. What convinced me was when Olga tells you to keep your controllers rumble function on so you can feel the vibration from the cell phone she gives you. (Metal gear solid 2).

When she said that, I was all like "awww..."

I'm looking into getting one. The left stick on my sixaxis locks sometimes when I push it forward. It's not a major problemo but it definitely gets wicked annoying.
