Today, Sony announced that they were bringing new controllers colors to America. The new colors for the Dualshock 3 are going to be Blue and Red! I personally would love both of them, but my favorite color is blue, so its a hard choice. Check out the picture below and tell me which one you think is the best below!

“Satin Silver” will be available at GameStop exclusively from July through September
“Deep Red” and “Metallic Blue” will be available at all retail partners starting in October

Those are horrible and ugly. They look like PlaySkool My First DualShocks.

I wonder if the choice of red & blue have anything to do with motion controls in the future? In the demos didn't they use kind of the same colors of blue & red? Just a thought...

I think that they both look cheesy, like those old ps2 controllers that you could see through or the colors they sold later.

If I had to pick one it probably would be the red one. I think it looks a little better than the blue. Blus your PS3 would look like a bruise if you had the blue one.

Cheap and easy way for Sony to make some money. Like the Blue but will not buy as my PS3 is black and I like black.

The wife might want the red one, but she is a communist so no surprise there,

Haha one of the funniest things I have heard today.

Blu boy · 07-29-2009, 04:04 AM

blue one looks ok i guess, i liked the 360 red controller more than that red ds3. they both look cheap if they were a lot darker in color and had a glossy finish, then i'd be interested.

I have a SixAxis and that's it so I may get one of each, we'll see.

I still like the white controller from Japan the best.

im surprised they didnt bring the white one as well to america red white and blue, all that jazz

they both look ok, i still prefer the white and black ones tho

LifeOfAPirate13 · 07-29-2009, 12:49 PM

I don't think they look that bad it's really all a matter if you like those colors. I agree the white one is probably the best looking one but keep in mind that the white also gets dirty super fast and is a pain to keep clean.

They are ugly as sin. But, did you get the white one from playasia.com I reckon?

Steve · 07-29-2009, 03:39 PM

I'll stick with the black ones. If I want to change it up then I'll get a white one.

Yup, had to have one before the US ones launched. Plus the different color was cool.
