pretty nice deal from Amazon. (http://www.amazon.com/)


It'll be released April 15th according to them.

Bad link.

If list price is nice deal, then I guess so. You'd think at least they'd give us a small discount?

Can't get the link to work. AVS is censoring something in the URL.

That is discounted. List price is $54.99.

HERE's (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-98050-Dualshock-Wireless-Controller/dp/B0015AARJI) a direct link.

My mistake. Usually it gives a % by discount, but not here. I'll go ahead and place my order.

Do I seriously even need rumble? I'm not sure I miss it. :confused:

You miss rumble, you just don't know it yet.

I don't miss the rumble too much, but I sure miss the weight of a dualshock.

Cool thanks for the post. I need a new controller. And the price is right :D

I have had an import for a few weeks now and I can honestly say it was worth it. The substantial weight difference alone provides a much better feel for the controller, not to mention what the rumble feature adds to the immersiveness (is that a word?) of the game.

I've had an import DS3 for a couple months as well and it was well worth the ~$65 total that I spent. After using the XBox 360 controller the Sixaxis was like holding a feather. The DS3 has everything that the Sixaxis has as well as rumble and the much needed extra weight.

I've had a Ceramic White Dualshock3 controller for a few months and like it a lot. I finally got around to writing a review. It compares the Dualshock3 to the Sixaxis and the Dualshock2 controllers. There's some Hi-res pics as well.

Yeah, I don't think I really miss it at all.

I think I'd rather have another game or put it towards the steering wheel and pedals I'm going to get for GT5 Prologue.

I didn't even know the PS3 didn't have rumble. I guess I don't miss it.

I just pulled the trigger, pre-ordered two. $99.98. Shipped to my doorstep. Can't beat that price.

Considering almost all games from now on will offer rumble support of some kind, it will probably be a nice feature to have.
