I just got myself a Dualshock 3 and wondered if i have to do anything special to get the rumble feature to work, apparently you can turn the rumble function on and off but i cant figure out how. It says turn it off and on using the PS button but when i do that i dont get any option to switch the rumble on or off. Help would be much appriceated.

Just thought i'd hijack this thread, since it had an appropriate title, and i'd rather not congest the forums with newer threads.


Anyways. 2 questions.

1. Best/Cheapest place to get a DS3?

2. Is it really great? How do you like it as opposed to no runble etc?

Maybe Play-Asia or eBay?
It's a good change but not THAT good, don't rush out to get one but I do recommend you pic one up some time soon.

I'd say that play-asia is the cheapest place to get it. And they are quite nice, I like having the rumble back. Its especially good in MGS4

AUD $54.22 + your choice of postage from www.play-asia.com/ will definitely work out cheaper, especially if you're buying more than one and combining postage.

$52 US from Estarland with $7 for postage. if you buy a couple of games you can really get the postage cost down.
I bought one online yesterday, with five preowned games.
I should be able to sell those games on ebay and cover the cost of everything, this essentially getting a DS3 for free.

I got 1 white & 1 black DS3 from playasia, just arrived yesterday, ordered during their 25% off "in stock items" sale so cost only $100 including express delivery, good bargain. They feel heaps heavier & the rumble is strong. Sold my two sixaxis controllers for $70 so they only cost me $15 each .
