 In all honesty we had a shock - pun intended - when we got the news that Sony have finally gotten around to releasing the Dual Shock 3 controller for the PS3 in Europe and its about time to.
The so called release date for the DUALSHOCK 3 is set for the 2nd of July 2008 in Europe.
The eagerly awaited (that is an understatement) wireless controller with vibration function will finally bring back the core feature of the controller that was ripped out due to a legal battle of the rumble rights - long story.
More than 28 million DUALSHOCK controllers have been sold since the first DUALSHOCK release for PlayStation in 1998.
Now DUALSHOCK 3 puts back some serious power into existing and future PS3 titles, with its vibration function.
DUALSHOCK 3 also retains the high-precision, high-response motion-sensitive aspects that have made SIXAXIS so popular.
David Reeves, President and CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, commented, "We are delighted to confirm that DUALSHOCK 3 will be released in SCEE territories in early July. We hope this will add to the intense gaming experience for our fans, as we continue to evolve PS3, its software and its peripherals.”
Almost all future PS3 releases will support DUALSHOCK 3, and the controller is already compatible with many existing PS3 titles (firmware upgrade 1.94 required).
Price will probably be around the £40 at a guess.
