For those PS3 owners out there like myself, I have some good news for you. Rumble has been brought back! The DualShock 3 was released in Japan this week.
The controller is said to be heavier than the SIXAXIS, making it feel a lot sturdier and of better quality. It contains all of the same features as its counterpart, while adding in the rumble feature we have all missed.
Rumble has not yet been incorporated into all of the games; however patches are being constantly released to add it on. Firmware update 2.0 enabled the vibration functionality of the DualShock 3 to be recognized by the system. A full list of compatible games can be found at the end of this post.
The DualShock 3 is available in both black and ceramic white in Japan. The controller is not going to be released until spring 2008 for North America, and the white controller will most likely not be available.
If you guys don’t want to wait to purchase one, or you want your own ceramic white controller, check out yesasia dot com to order one. This seems to be the cheapest option, and they have free shipping to North America. If you enter the coupon code SA5OFF upon your purchase, you get $5 off. I have just ordered my own ceramic white DualShock 3 from here and am now anxiously awaiting for it to arrive.
