This controller is too awesome. The weight of it feels so much better than the standard sixaxis and rumble is just as good as I remember. There was no hassle connecting it either. I just plugged in the charger and pushed the PS button and I was all ready to play. Highly recommended. White color is very slick as well.

Perfection Beautiful finish, excellent controller and a good price. What more could you want?
No excuse for perfect gaming As my title suggests,there is no excuse for someone to purchase a PS3 and not have the Dualshock3 rumble controller.It weighs a bit heavier then the normal SixAxis and it feels at home in my hands, like the previous PS2 controllers.Analog sticks are smooth.Mine is the Satin Silver version and it has a slick feel and look.
Excellent! This is my second dual shock ordered from play-asia. It's an excellent looking controller and it fits my black ps3 well. The silver finish has a nice look to it.
Beautiful! I just received my controller today, and its so beautiful! I got the ceramic white one, and to anyone wondering if it looks nice with a black ps3, it looks perfect! best looking controller i've ever seen to be honest.
the rumble is a must also, and the extra weight gives you a better feel and hold on the controller. i dont want to go back to the sixaxis!

Nice i just got the controller 2 days ago! VERY GOOD controller i ordered it may 20 and it was shipped
Awesome Controller! I just received my controller today! Rumble is slightly less than the DS2. Good Weight. CERAMIC WHITE is the sexiest color of them all. Absolutely recommend! Box is in japanese. GREAT CONTROLLER! I want another!
wow the service is awesome.....thanxz playasia.....dual shock 3 controller is worth getting .....i order both colors white and silver...you get your money worth..
Very Nice The Dual Shock 3 weighs about 55g more than the original Sixaxis controller but the weight is definitely noticeable. The added weight is certainly not a bad thing as the original sixaxis controller felt rather flimsy and inaccurate particularly when using the sixaxis tilt functions. The Dual Shock 3 feels solid and well built.
Sony claims that the vibration force is comparable to the Dual Shock 2 however when using it i felt that it was somewhat weaker. That said the vibrations also felt more precise in that there were more varying levels of impact vibration.
This controller is long overdue and should have been ready for sale with the PS3 on it's release day. It's a must have addition to the PS3 and i would be very surprised if Sony don't start selling this as standard with the console.
For this particular version (Satin Silver) the choice of colour is a bit of a gimmick but at the same time it does look interestingly different to the rather ordinary black version.
I love this controller! First off let me say, Thank you Playasia. This website is the best. It is esspecially fast. Then I want to say that the rumble has what the PS3 was missing. I love the weight and the vibration. This is a must buy for any one.

Nice Had for a month and works great,just wish more hames would come out with a patch so the rumble worked on more games.Like cod4,ridge racer 7
Outstanding DS3 Controller I was first hesitant about ordering this controller for I sent Play-Asia an e-mail and received a quick response. I ordered and received it in no time at all. The controller looks great and the rumble should have been what the console came with. I'm ordering another one, just can't decide on silver or another white one.
Great company!

ds3 the best controller out there the rumble is nice unlike the 360 controller it has a more precise vibration depending in the situation you are in. play-asia the best"
BEST DS3 i LOVE this and by the way if you are a ps3 owner and u do decide to get a dualshock 3 and u dont know which color, i say go with this one, because i have this and a white dualshock 3 and i think the rumble on the silver is better because i noticed it is slightly heavier than the white one.

Best Dualshock controller ever I got this controller to have vibration is my old PS2 games, after I got it, I found that it is better than the Dualshock 2, when playing a PS2 game it vibrates a lot like the Dualshock 2 being that is what the game is programmed for, but if you play a new PS3 game, the vibration is a lot better, and you feel more in the game, and it is more independent than the Dualshock 2, if something happes on the left side, the just the left side will vibrate, same for the right
I have to say, the Dualshock 3 is better than any contoller ever
Soooooo, Pretty!... and works great too!!! Not only does the DS3 (DualShock 3) deliver as promised (I had forgotten what I was missing with the SIXAXIS all these months) but it looks sooooo much better in SHINY! CERAMIC! WHITE!!! Don't get me wrong, I think Black is beautiful too, but the White stands out in comparison to my shinny black PS3 and all the black accessories. I even bought one for a friend.

Thanks for this sony This is the controller to end all other controllers. It took about about a week and a half to get here but once it did, it was playstation all night. The vibration is strong enough to let you know its working(well) but its not overly powerful. It is also alot sturdier than the sixaxis which is a welcome change. Having used all of the controllers from all the sysytems I can say I love this one the best. Now that the dualshock controllers are back theres no reason for anyone to buy a sixaxis. Thanks for listening Sony, youve made me one happy camper.
are you kidding me this is the !!! this is the only controler i LOVE to use. it looks cool, and feels like a saturday night alone. (lol) if you have a ps3 and like vibrating things that look cool you gotta get cha one
Essential This is definitely the best PS3 controller out. The rumble works great with Uncharted, DMC 4, and Resistance. Why Sony ever decided to do away with rumble in the first place, I'll never understand. One of my criticisms of the original PS3 controller is how light weight it is. The new heavier weight feels just about right (although not as good as the original PSX Dual Shock), and the controller's designs continues to be the most comfortable and ergonomic among the consoles.

Well done play-asia and well done sony Got mine yesterday, and after having played UT3 for an hour or two, really realised how much I missed the rumble. The very slight increase in weight gives the controller a sturdy and better feel. Well done sony for responding to the consumers comments.
people... don't you dare by another SIXAXIS controller when the DS3 is available.
ordered thursday evening arrived monday morning... SUPER fast delivery, better than eBay experience I've EVER had.
