I finally got my hands on a Dualshock. The rumble adds a little extra weight to the controller. Although it feels more solid it was nice to have the super lightweight original Sixaxis. The addition of rumble though is great and works well in Grand Theft Auto IV. Not sure of the battery life but beware that the Dualshock 3 does NOT come with the USB charger cable. I kept my old one for my original Sixaxis to use with the Dualshock 3. With Metal Gear Solid 4 just out, I figured it was time for this upgrade.

Package design looks strikingly similar to previous Dualshock packaging.

The controller looks the exact same other than the DUALSHOCK 3 text on the top.
