 No usb cable..... September 24, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found reasonable that SONY do not include HDMI cable for the console, since it can work without it.
BUTTT, how can you play with a wireless controller without its charge cable, it is ridiculous.
It is a big minus for SONY.
Also , I agree with other reviews that L2 and R2 should be more like a trigger, they slip easyly.
It is the best controller but I want to give 2 stars because of these flaws.

Sony Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller - Black
Excellent piece of kit but I am astounded that it does not come with a USB cable!?!
I could just about come to terms with the PS3 not coming equipped with a HDMI cable but to sell a wireless controller without the charging lead is just plain ridiculous, you are merely informed to use the one that came with the PS3.
That Sony were not able to make the Sixaxis as Dualshock compatible in the first instance is due, I would imagine, to them treating the patent holders with the same contempt as they treat their customers.
Great products but a complete lack of business acumen.
 Something so simple adds so much July 3, 2008

The Sixaxis was a good little gimmick on the original controller but the addition of the vibration feature in the DualShock 3 is a much needed one.
You may think, "oh, the only difference is that the controller vibrates" which is true but it makes such a difference - the vibration is improved on the PS2's and feels a little more subtle in my opinion. Every bump and crash in a racing game can be felt, on shooting games it feels like you really are shooting etc.
I thought when using the Sixaxis controller that I wouldn't miss the vibration and most of the time I didn't but buy this product and you won't look back and you will be thinking, "why didn't I buy one earlier?"
Something so simple really does add so much and the only other comparison with the Sixaxis is that the DualShock 3 is slightly heavier and the battery doesn't last as long. However, I believe the added weight is a positive and rids the 'cheap' feel of the Sixaxis. Regarding the battery, it will still last you between 3 - 5 hours.
Overall, a great product and a must-have for all PlayStation 3 owners - get one now - don't wait for the UK release.
Amazing Get One June 7, 2008

Immediately after getting it out of the box you can tell the Dualshock 3 is high quality. Unlike the Sixaxis the Dualshock 3 is very sturdy and doesn't feel like it is about to fall apart. The weight is perfect noticeably heavy than the Sixaxis, which is a good thing as the Sixaxis always felt too light.
God I've missed a rumble feature, the controller's rumble is slightly less than its predecessor's, however the rumble is excellent. Playing Warhawk I can tell from which direction I was being shot at just from the rumble and games such as Uncharted can't really be appreciated fully until you've played it with a rumble feature. The controller holds its charge just as well as the Sixaxis and we easily last 20 hours before needing to charge it.
Although not officially released in the UK, I really suggest getting a dualshock 3 (imported ones still work with a UK PS3). Dualshock 3 really adds to the whole gaming experience, a must buy for the PS3.
