4 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect   December 2, 2008
A. Miranda (california)
I purchased this as a present for my husband, and am mostly happy with what I have. As many reviews have stated, Dualshock is a much better experience for playing games than the original sixaxis.

My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a USB cord to charge it. That being said, the great thing about PS3 is that it isn't proprietary and will take any usb cord.

Overall, a good purchase.



5 out of 5 stars Great item.   December 1, 2008
game play addict (U.S.A.)
The controller has a heavier feel to it than the issued one for PS3. What can I say that wasn't mentioned on other reviews. This product works great. My only gripe is that PS3 should have made the dualshock the issued controller.


5 out of 5 stars Works perfectly   December 1, 2008
A. Gamarra
The controller works beautifully,and the extra weight on the controller doesn't make much of a difference. Though it does feel a bit sturdier than the non-dualshock ones.


5 out of 5 stars Better than Sixxaxis control   November 29, 2008
Jose Carreno (Venezuela)
This control dos not have nothing special, especially if you had used the Dual Shock 2 in the past. It is practically the same Sixaxis control but the vibration mode has incorporated and the weight is slightly heavy compared to Sixaxis control. It is very sensitive and very comfortable. The battery has a long life (runs out after 6 hours of intensive use).


5 out of 5 stars No complaints; much better than I expected   November 27, 2008
TheBrizz (Springfield, IL United States)
I'd always been an XBox guy. One of the things I preferred about the XBox compared to the Playstation was the controller. It's got a big, meaty controller that fills out your hands nicely, while I always felt like previous Playstation controllers felt light, cheap and flimsy. Well, a couple months ago, I bought a PS3. I needed a Blu-ray player and I figured I might as well spend a little extra and get a gaming system with it too. What I like about the Dual Shock Sixaxis is that it's a little heavier than previous controllers, and it just feels solid and sturdy in your hands. The buttons are nice and responsive, and they're well-placed from an ergonomic standpoint. Highly recommended.
