Hey IGN community, i had a question...
The SixAxis controller is old and the new DualShock 3 controller is the newest one.
Does new games ask the DualShock 3 controller now or can we still use our SixAxis controller for the new games...
And with new games i mean: Merc's 2, Fifa 09, Saints Row 2 ect ect.

I hope you guys can help me out :)

Lol to point out... its Gamespot.com. And it doesnt matter which controller your using only difference you should be aware of is that older games do not have vibration (if your using the DS3).

you have to buy some ruby red pumps first and wear them, then click your heels together 3 times. only then will the six axis continue to work with newer games. i would not try using the controller without first performing the preceding step, otherwise the ps3 will overload and melt.
