PS3 slim and Controller w/ MW2 November 24, 2009 Shaw L. Tan 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
It is ok, but not great for me.
1. experienced wireless connection got jammed all of sudden (blue tooth or WIFI?)
2. simple power off process without looking a TV. Drain battery power easily if not pay attention
3. experienced lower control buttons did not work properly all of surdden
4. PS3 slim was not good (basic functions)as I expected. HDMI connection is unstable.
*the controller and SP3 slim are good, but still need to focus on basic functions. I tried to keep the controller and SP2 slim, but I returned all. Hoping Xbox360 elite system has solid basic functions.

Solid Controller, My Personal Favorite Controller of All Time November 23, 2009 Siklootd (Santa Fe, NM) When Sony came into the video game scene many years ago with the PSX aka PSOne, they created one of the best controllers ever made. The shoulder buttons are very comfortable and easy to press within a split second, great for games that require fast reaction time. The four face buttons are spaced perfectly, and the overall design of the controller fits the hand perfectly. Sony hit the bulls-eye with the PSOne dualshock controller, and they transferred this design over to the PS2. The design was still so popular that Sony could not resist transferring it over again. The added benefit of the dualshock controller on the PS3 is no more wires! The controller easily syncs with the console and has a great battery life as well. The controller also comes packaged with a USB cable that you can use to charge the controller with in case of long gaming sessions where the battery may begin to run low. The major reason that I prefer this controller overall the other controllers that have been released is because of the directional pad. The d-pad is perfect on the Sony controllers. It allows for precision and accuracy in every genre of gaming. I was disappointed when Sony launched the PS3 and its controller lacked rumble capability, however, with this new release the dualshock design is back and better than ever.
They slept on the red light check out day November 21, 2009 Crashlanding These new painted DualShock 3 controllers are better than the black ones, because the paint finish makes them easier to grip. The black plastic ones become slick when your hands sweat while gaming, while the painted ones have a matte finish that adds a little texture. I have a silver one and this red one, both have a nice look.
The problem with the red version is that the indicator light next to the usb plug shines through the casing. With the light and the paint being red, the light gets an intensity boost and it shows through the top of the controller. It's not a big deal to me, but is surprising coming from Sony as they usually don't miss details like that. Otherwise this is a great color red, with just a bit of metal flake. Get one of these and spice up your gaming.
Forgiving on the hands November 19, 2009 J. Young (Vancouver, WA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I play a lot of FPS games for hours on end. I own the PS3, Xbox 360 & the Wii. Out of all of these systems' controllers I like the PS3's Dualshock 3 wireless controller the best. It's smaller and smoother to the touch which is a lot more forgiving on my hands. My hands tend to hurt after playing FPS games with the Xbox controller because of its larger size and because of the rough texture on the outside of the controller although this is less of an issue if I'm playing games other than shooters because I tend to not grasp the controller so tightly. A great feature of the wireless PS3 controller is that the batteries last a long time in between charges and there's no need to switch out batteries as they are built into the controller. Also, I tend to beat the hell out of controllers and this controller can take a beating. I have went through several Xbox controllers over the last 2 years because my thumb sits awkwardly on the left analog stick which eventually wears a hole through it after just a few months. Lastly, I own Katamari Forever and having the left and right analogue sticks symmetrical, side-by-side makes the Katamari experience more enjoyable. Playing Katamari on the Xbox isn't as easy.
DS3 works. November 18, 2009 Movser Ngai It is made in China, but it works find for both PS2 and PS3 (JPN).
