Welcome to PS3 Controller
PS3Controller.co.uk is here to get you the best deals on wireless controllers for your Playstation3. The PS3 normally only ships with 1 controller and so to get the best out of the console you'll probably end up having to buy another controller. How else are you going to prove to your friends that you are indeed 'king of the road' in Gran Turismo, or not to be messed with in Call of Duty 3.
Connecting contollers to PS3
The Playstation 3 supports up to 7 controllers connected wirelessly (via bluetooth) to the console, so no more tangled wires, when you're playing those multiplayer games.
SIXAXIS Wireless Controller
The new contollers used with the PS3 is called a 'SIXAXIS Wireless Controller'. What this basically means is that the controller is motion sensitive (through six axis) and so in certain games you can control the character / vehicle / action by simply moving the controller. So you want to move left, well then you 'lean' the controller to the left.

Dualshock 3 / Rumble Controller
Sony have also released a new Dualshock or Rumble controller. This controller has a built on 'motor' which is activated when certain in game features occur, when this happens the controller vibrates, or rumbles, and so gives you extra feedback as to what is happening in the game. For example maybe in a game you are driving a car and crash the controller could vibrate to simulate this, or your character gets shot and the rumble controller shakes to add that bit of realism to the game. The dualshock 3 controllers help bring games to life.
