We have more word from retailer conference Destination PlayStation: the DualShock 3—you know, that DualShock we've been waiting for since the PS3's launch—has gotten a US release date.

Set to launch April 15th for $54.99, it's slated to coincide with the release of GT5 Prologue. Oh yes, feel those engines roar through your controller and make your SIXAXIS-wielding friends envious...like they're just playing a video game or something.

Kotaku is usually reasonably reliable with these ... only six weeks to wait. Sign me up.

Five star thread!

I already got a ds3 tho -_-V

They better not come out with a damn blue or green one.. Ill be pissed -_-

BlackLightShark009 · 02-26-2008, 05:41 PM

COOL. Though ive already got my white ds3. Now i can replace my other 3 with ds3s. Dont know though if ill have all whites or do 2 of each color.

Fits the projection, pretty nifty.

.

Hmm, well that's a fun thought for me to have.

Anyone know if any of those custom paint-job ps3 places will do laser etches?

BlackLightShark009 · 02-26-2008, 05:58 PM

Ive not heard of a "custom" Ps3 painting place. Until that pic posted other day of a white ps3 wich they claimed they painted. I dont believe it at all cause it looked like they took a pic/or imported Japans 40GB. Anyway im sure some other place might do laser etche.

dk3dknight · 02-26-2008, 06:02 PM

I just want a black ds3.

I hope there made a little better then the six axis I noticed theres some spots where plastic can basicly snap off on the six axis near the r1 and r2, I got pissed at Gundam Crossover, and took the pissed offness off on the controller by doing a small dunk to the ground, took me awhile to get the plastic piece to fit back into place.

Anyone know if Sony will have a replacement program to allow us to exchange our SIXAXIS for the new DualShock 3. I ask this because I know that future PS3 shipments will be bundled with DualShock 3 so it seems unfair for early adopters to have to buy them.

PS3-Playb3yond · 02-26-2008, 06:04 PM

I'm getting one for sure.

Couple places do custom jobs that I saw, just paint though. Had a fun thought for a real Geek Out moment with the PS3 [laser etch some FF branding into it].

freaking awesome! I have been waiting for these to come out, I need a third controller... thank you Sony!

BStecke · 02-26-2008, 06:22 PM

Does the Dualshock 3 still have the motion sensor deal like the SixAxis? I'm hoping they're phasing that out . . .
