The ultimate gamepad

New of the controller comes standard with wireless (wireless) ausgestatet. Charged it is a USB cable, which will be joined in the PlayStation3.

Also new is the round button below Start and Select. This is perhaps already known to some by the Xbox 360. This button is used to return directly to the main menu or turn off the console.

Sony has something further copied from the Xbox. The shoulder buttons, formerly known as L2 and R2 are now on as an accelerator to push (hard to explain how to do this on its own).

The newest, best and eponymous feature is the six-axes function. This function takes movements was similar to the Wii. So you can, for example, control as MotorStorm, hold the controller like a steering wheel and left and right movements. Of course, this also applies to other games (eg in Genji 2 Run the role) is. The Sixaxis controller is in 6 directions einsetztbar (up, down, left, right, front and rear).

Unfortunately, the little miracle part has a disadvantage. The vibration function is no longer there. Many have complained that the rumble feature would interfere with the play. Therefore, Sony built from this feature and made the Controller 128 grams light. Sony confirmed but that there will soon be also a Controller with Rumble function. We hope for the best.
