I just bought another Dualshock 3 because BestBuy had them on sale for $39.99. Don't you love opening it and it's immaculately clean and has that new controller smell? And the analog sticks and buttons/triggers are all perfect? Maybe it's just me but I love stuff like that. :D

It is a good experience adding a new color to the controller selection. Of course, I only have two controllers right now (black & white) so I've only had that experience one time! :cry:

Next will be a red or a blue controller!

My loving cat spilled an adult beverage on my original controller. Works fine still, but the dpad is a bit sticky... I can't wait to snag another and experience immaculate DS3 bliss yet again...

I actually hate it. They feel weird and the plastic packaging is the worst packaging ever.

Like the shiny new aspect but I found the sticks are a bit stiff right out of the box and take a while to break in.

I mean in general.. everything that is in that plastic annoys the hell out of me.

That seems too good to be true. Are you sure it's not a fake?

No you are not the only one. I want to get the military green and the pink Dualshock 3 controllers. For 39.99 at great price. Yes the new controller experience is something that gamers can understand.

Other peoples just go "What?"

Then it is time to christen the new controller with an all nighter.

I always like to have two, so I can have one plugged in and charging and then swap it when the one I'm playing with runs low on battery.

I actually hate buying new controllers. Then you have to break them in again. I am gonna need a new one soon for both of my consoles. I am dreading it. I do, however, love buying new games. Opening up a new game to that new game smell and shiny case is one of my favorite things.

I can only imagine. I'm baffled: I wore latex gloves while playing with the new controller on my new PS3, and the thing looks worse than if I had played with Dorito fingers.
