Special Features

 

  • Motion Sensing System*: Thanks to breakthrough technology and a highly sensitive motion sensing system, the controller becomes a natural extension of the user's body. (*Motion-sensitive feature is not compatible in all PlayStation 3 game titles. Check each game for specific compatible features.)
  • Bluetooth: Bluetooth for wireless gameplay (the PlayStation 3 system can support up to seven wireless controllers at one time).
  • Wireless or Wired: The Sixaxis controller can be easily switched from wireless to wired.
  • Analog Joy Sticks: The tilting angle of the analog joy sticks have been slightly broadened to enable more delicate and dynamic manipulation.
  • L2/R2 Buttons: The shape of the L2/R2 buttons has been altered, enabling increased travel and precision for more subtle control in games.
  • USB Charging: Plug into a USB cable and automatically charge the controller through the system at any time. (Use any of the four USB connectors on the PlayStation 3.)

Review

 

With the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system's Cell Broadband Engine creating experiences that were never thought possible, a controller was needed that would enable your experience to match its potential. Enter the new Sixaxis wireless controller. Utilizing sensors designed to read when a player angles, tilts, thrusts, or pulls, the Sixaxis controller allows game play to become a natural extension of the player's body.

And with the heritage of the PlayStation system's basic controller design still intact, gamers are now able to play the controls they've grown accustomed to while harnessing the added intuitive movements of the multi-axis controller.

I bought this as a secondary controller so that my girlfriend can play Lego Starwars With me.
Ok, so it doesn't have dual shock, but as there aren't many multi player games at the moment and it's only going to be used as a secondary controller, it doesn't matter. You can still play the game!
The price is good, (altho next time will spend the extra to get the other one) altho it thought it was a bit off that i didn't get a charging cable with it. Should i have got one? Nowhere in the write up for the product does it say that it doesn't have one.
All in all a good product, but could be better!

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Great!
