Well its feels sturdier I guess?? Besides the added weight cause of the dynamos that are now in the controller it's basically the sixaxxis. I mean it does not feel cheap if that makes your decision easier.

I guess only time will tell. Im gonna get one, but not so much for the rumble. Got use to not having it since the PS3 has been out. (got my PS3 in Feb'07) I know they eventually will, but hopefully they come out with diff color DS3 soon other than black and white.
I posted this on another thread but Im gonna try to switch the analog component from a ps2 controller to a ps3 controllers motherboard. Its a lil project of mine and I will be purchasing a soldering gun before the week is up.

JUST A THOUGHT: wouldnt having the rumble interfere with the motion sensing? Just the vibration may cause the sensor to think that the controller was moved. In certain games this may not be a good thing. I wonder if Sony thought of that and the rumble is disabled when a motion is expected to be used to perform a certain task.

Is the DS3 controller more sturdy than the sixaxis? I will get one if this is so. The sixaxis price should drop since the DS3 is finally here. If you play games a lot, esspecially sports games like myself (NBA 2K8), then your left analog stick becomes worn. An old ps2 controller never has this problem and its over 10yrs old. And I have a 2nd cousin who has a ps1 and those things still work like new. Its starting to be a rip off that a more expensive controller is less reliable. Sony needs to raise the production cost on the sixaxis controller and keep it at the same price if they wont drop it. Thats the last thing you should have to worry about is if your controller works to the best of its ability or not.

I don't see a point in spending $70.00 for a new controller

I paid $60 for my first Dualshock 3 and plan on paying $55 more for another one. Always got to have two good controllers laying around.

My sixaxis is wrecked from over 17 days of CoD4 and about six months of six hour resistance days before that. I attribute the analogs wearing down to the use that I get out of the PS3. I can't recall any game system that I put this much use on in so short of time.
