From our front-page news:
It feels like forever that PS3 gamers have been waiting to get their rumble on... because well, it almost has been. The PS3 launched in November 2006, which means that we waited a long SIX<strike>axis</strike>TEEN months to see this thing hit the street! What was the hold up? Who knows... maybe they had a billion SIXAXIS gamepads to sell off first?
The good news in all of this, besides the rumble of course, is that the DUALSHOCK 3 (caps are theirs) retains the SIXAXIS (caps are theirs) capabilities, which means that the original SIXAXIS GAMEPAD WILL BE DISCONTINUED SOON (caps mine out of spite).
These new gamepads are being sent out to retailers right NOW, and can be had for the same price that the original was priced at, $54.99USD. The entire list of supported rumble games is listed through the link below, with some, such as MotorStorm and Resistance: Fall of Man, requiring a quick download prior to the feature being enabled.

Just to give you a small refresher course, the DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller includes pressure sensors that rumble with each action. SIXAXIS technology is also included, so you can still use motion control, and the controller features Bluetooth technology for wireless gameplay. You can pick it up at any of the major retailers and at a cost $54.99 MSRP.
