Unbiased review of Sixaxis and comparison to Dualshock 3 Starters, yes they are using their same design to the Dual shock 2 and Dual shock and it is a trade mark of Playstation. Old? Yes. Broken?

it doesnt feel light, has a nice weight to it and i'm just now remembering just how immersive rumble is. An... more info
