Plus, recession means that 70 dollars isn't what it used to be.

Ah yes, I forgot about VAT, and its inherent homosexuality. Lucky yanks.

Alright... I'm not trying to start anything, just stating my opinion. But I guess your right, $20 isn't that much. I guess I'm just not as excited to get rumble on my PS3 games.

I used to think the same thing... that is, until I started playing games with rumble on my PS3. The Club just wouldn't be the same without it, in my humble opinion...

The Dualshock 3 is shipping out to the US next week, and there is some other news also.

Once the DS3 is out, Sony are no longer making the regular Sixaxis controller. They will still be available to buy, but one they are sold, that's it.

Just something to throw out there.

According to what's "written" on the top of the DS3 controller that I got from Japan, it's a DS3/Sixaxis combination... lucky me, I guess?

Mine too... but isn't that the case globally?

The DS3 still has the Sixaxis tech, you just can't buy a regular Sixaxis once they are all gone.

They are making a point of this because isn't the DS3 more (price-wise)? If so, they aren't lowering the price of it to the Sixaxis price slot meaning you will pay more for a controller now.

Oh great, controllers are already ridiculously expensive at the moment, IMO. I remember being annoyed at having to fork out ~£20 for a new PS2 controller some years back, thinking it should have been around a fiver less. I realise now how good I actually had it!

I thought this was pretty interesting, and I figured that I would share it with the rest of you guys...

My brother "preordered" a DS3 (with Next Day Air shipment) off of the EB Game's website just yesterday while we were at work... surprisingly, he received his controller today at work before we went to lunch.

He re-checked the website after opening the shipment box, and their website stated (earlier this afternoon) that they're supposed to be released in a week or so.

I just checked their website before I posted this... and apparently, they're in stock and ready to ship within 24 hours.

Pretty odd, if you ask me.
