The real PlayStation 3 controller revealed


Sony just revealed the final controller for the PlayStation 3 during their E3 keynote (which we're live-blogging here). What does it look like? Short answer: an awful lot like the PlayStation 2's existing Dual Shock.

There is one addition. The PS3's new controller contains some additional Wii-esque functionality without any sensors needed. Did Sony just gank Nintendo's secret weapon? Looks like it.

Specs include:
  • X-Y-Z, pitch, roll, yaw, and lateral motion detection
  • Bluetooth and wireless controls
  • It's lighter than the PS2 controller
