Too Cheap To Buy A PS3 DualShock Controller?

Technabob writes: "This strange appendage snaps on to the bottom of your standard PlayStation 3 SIXAXIS joystick, turning it into a poor-man's DualShock controller.

PEGA's oddly-named "Vibrating Bag" adds rumble capability to your stock PS3 controller. Now they don't specify if the vibration actually works when the game generates its feedback signal, or if the thing just continuously rumbles. But couldn't your tired hands use a relaxing massage anyway?

In addition to adding some unwelcome bulk to the controller, the remote receiver that plugs into the console's USB port has a huge antenna sticking out of it, messing with your PS3's sleek good looks".

I've created a box that when ever there is a loud explosion in a game, the box will send out a big Boxing glove and punch you in the guts.

If it works on the X-box 360 send me a link to order a few so I finally can get those 360 fanboys their chrismas prezzies!

PS can it be adjusted to aim a bit lower?

gta_cb6704d ago

now now, soon as though in your profile it says you have both a PS3 and an Xbox 360 AND a Nintendo Wii you should know PS3Fanboys are just as bad.

diatom6703d ago

Hehe... I admit it... Nothing like busting out the wii with a few friends over and too much to drink. As for the x-box, I really enjoyed Mass Effect, Bioshock, Forza and my wife is a live arcade junky (can someone recommend a support group, she hasn't made me a sandwich in months). But at the core, I love my ps3....

ukilnme6704d ago

I'll be going with the DualShock.

mikeslemonade6704d ago

I'm still using the dualshock 2 for PS3. Sixaxis or DS3 it don't matter to me just give me the cheaper option.

GodsHand6704d ago

I did for while too, but some games force you to use the sixaxsis part of the controller. Which means the dualshock from the PS2 wont work.

This device does not justtify getting one, being an add on making the controller bulky, and unless your a solo player, you will need more then one of these devices.

moujahed6704d ago

If i went to the store, and a clerk showed me this... I would have to slap the sh!t out of them.

Iron Man 26704d ago

How much can a DS3 controller possibly cost?$50?quit being a cheapa*s like the Xbox fanboys

I'll be picking up two DS3 controllers later on this year;)

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle38d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy45d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12544d ago (Edited 44d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
