3. Lighter controller, making it less physically exhausting to move the controller about.

cannibal127-9

I seriously hope that your 3rd point is one of either sarcasm or jest bc if playing video games (excluding the likes of DDR or EyeToy) is that demanding on your body you should really get your deconditioned @$$ off of the couch and outside for some exercise. 

"1. Extended internal battery life"  ----This will be a moot point if the controller can outlast you.  A 20 minute battery life may suffice.

"2. Tilt feature will make games far more realistic and interactive. (Resistance:FoM utilizes it, in the sense that when an enemy grapples you, you physically shake the controller to get the beast off. " -------Consider supplemental oxygen or 2 months of conditioning training before attempting to reduce the risk of cardiac failure. To your credit this does sound like a cool innovative way to use the tilt function but its not worth crippling yourself over :|

I typed this a while ago...This is in response to people who think Sony is stealing Nintendo's "idea":

That type of technology is not new. Just because Nintendo is "using it" for their controllers doesn't mean that it is THEIR technology. Using actual 'kinetic control' is something that was developed long ago. Sony just decided to take advantage of it now...quit the whining and realize it was only a matter of time until it would happen. Just wait, either X360 will eventually feature this, or for sure the next Microsoft console will too. It's not Nintendo's creation, just the way they used it.

Not to mention, the way Sony is using this technology is completely different from the way Nintendo is using it. Sony's way is more of a "tilt" function for flight games, etc. Whereas Nintendo's controller can be used for fishing games where the controller is forcefully "cast" like a fishing rod....it's different.

people who say sony stole from nintendo don't say it because they think it's new tech. its because sony decided AFTER nintendo showed off their new controllers at e3 not because of the special tech.

the button in the centre of the controller is a home button. used to log in to game accounts, sort out optons and turn the ps3 off. very similar to the xbox 360 controller.

The motion sensor will let us make quick movement such as rolling, jumping etc. I think the whole concept is great. The Wii, IMHO is a novelty product.

well..i decided to summarize this topic..since i dont feel like going through every of the 1000 some posts...

Its pretty much a dual shock controller...that is chrome (other colors?)...it has more trigger-like L2/R2 buttons, higher sensitivity (10-bit, not 8-bit) its analog sticks can move further than before, the mystery middle button is a "home" button..like on the 360...so u can play music in game..or pretty much do w.e the heck u want.

It has a motion function thing..not stolen or copied from somewhere else, it is used mainly for flying games.

Annoying buzzer has been removed...aka...no more rumble..it would interfere with sensors

it has Bluetooth technology...approx...actually....im quite confused...some ppl say 10m range..others 30m...

it has a pathetic 24/hr battery life, but can be recharged by connecting with the console..similiar to how many mp3 players r charged to computers...

which leaves only one thing unaswered..besides the range....why back to dual shock..why oh why....

I dont really think the motion sensor is such a good ideal though. It will be cool just like what Wii promotion video shows such as slash ur enemy with a real slash action....But how can u play like this relaxly ad for a long time? What if I just want to lay dowm on my bed and enjoy the game? I mean it is cool but not really that good for every kind of game.

Also miss the rumble function will be bad, it really make u feel more realistic when not have to use any shrength(not like pointing the controller to the screen all the time).

I think some times the motion sensor just makes gaming harder..........The best way should be having both function nbut u can actually select to use then or not, just like the rumble function now. that will be ideal isnt it?

THANKYOU SO MUCH for clarifying and justifying tilt tech in the new controller correctly for all you haters aout there. I humble you!

sony is making a big mistake.. rumble in videogames is a big advancement and it's here to stay as a standard it;s like the inclusion of fuel injection (in cars)and the use of gasoline over diesel. rumble brought players closer to the game just like -movie like storytelling...and removing it takes gamers out....SONY don't put back a very important staple in videogaming they WILL be in BIG trouble.no way in hell can tilting controllers be a replacment to rumble, it can be an alternative but not a replacement......YOU cannot push this on people.. I for one see no interest in tilting,shaking,and my controller stiff as a dead horse while action is going on,on the screen...sony can make two controllers--and also stop making excuses...not alot of people is over zelous about trying to play games without buttons,very big gamble for putting all your chips on an experimental first time thing...just cause nintendo is doing it.....gamers who work and want to ome home,turn on,lay back and push some buttons for a few hours... SONY----if they keep the biggest inclusion ever in videogaming out they wil put themself in a huge hole!!!!!....think of rumble as fuel injection that replaced carborators,gasoline that replaced deisel,cd that replaced cartrage,cd that replaced a cassette,....this is one of those things you can have together but not as a replacement...... you can have ketchup with mustard----ketchup or mustard---but not outlaw ketchup for mustard indeffinately!!!! you will lose...imagine mustard with barbeque..SONY is doing some very dumb moves!!!!!..reminds me of the nfl and ea....videogames seem to be goin too mainstream and that is hurting the core gamer the ones that was there since day one,infancy............it's going from underground to pop.....

While your argument is justified and the loss of the rumble may make a slight impact, I serious disagree that it's likely to destroy the system's chance of success.  I have used the licensed Logitech Wireless controller on PS2 for some months now, and shortly after purchase it stopped vibrating.  Honestly, I haven't noticed much a difference.

some games do rumble features very well and use it at propper times. other times its used so much that it gets irritating and painful. on many of my games i have turned it off and dont notice a difference.
i believe it was Kaz Harai that said they had to choose between a feedback function or a input function.
when you think about it, the rumble doesnt realisticly do anything in the game but the sixaxis functionality could add a lot more control to actual gameplay. in this day and age we need every extra button and action we can get.

   I've been researching online in multiple forums trying to find this information and can't for the life of me, so I figured I'd ask here. I understand the the PS3 controllers are usb plug and play, and bluetooth wireless, but is there a way to plug a PS2 controller into the system? Are they releasing a PS2 to USB converter for that? The only reason I ask is because I'm a die hard Guitar Hero fan, and I'd like to use the Guitar Hero controller on the PS3. Maybe Red Octane has relased info on a possible release of the Guitar controller for the PS3 specifically?

I'd be completely fine with the boomerang controller, just for the fact that the DualShock2 controller just seems dated for me. I've been forced to use that for years, and by the looks of it, I'll still have to.

i really dont notice the vibration...

one might not notice vibration in say, platformers, but it's very important in FPS and shooters in general. the fact that you press a trigger and you don't feel the vibration of your gun firing, it just leaves an empty feeling...
