"More of a response to the review rather than a review itself."
on by roninhydePros Slightly more heft, battery life still great
Cons 5 more dollars, L2/R2 buttons carry over their weirdness from the SIXAXIS
Summary I've had one of these controllers since November 2007 (Japanese model can be purchased for equal or less on ebaY).
I just wanted to correct David Carnoy (again) about the non-user-replaceable battery. You CAN change it. The Dual Shock 3 has screws on the back unlike an iPod. Also there are how-to directions in the manual a few pages from the how-to on replacing the HDD. Granted, I'm not exactly sure what kind of battery goes into the Dual Shock, but the fact remains you can still change it. -
"So far so good."
on by seantagorekPros Good feel to it and adds to gameplay, especially Warhawk
Cons A little pricey
Summary Gamestop had this a bit earlier than some other stores, just picked it up today and I really like it. After trying it with a few games I find it really adds to the gameplay. Mainly I tested it on Warhawk and Resistance Fall of Man. The only thing I wonder is how varied, nuanced and strong the vibration is compared to some games I've played in the past on say an Xbox 360, maybe its the same but I don't have a system to test it side by side, but maybe I need something with more of a plot to it that uses the feedback to add to the movie like feel (like a Dead Rising type of game). But its got a good weight to it, and though a little pricey if you need an extra controller anyway this is a good buy all in all. Happy I got it.
