Sony today announced that the rumble-enabled DualShock 3 controller will be in PlayStation 3 owners' hands by this April.

The new pad--which looks a lot like the old pad--will sell for $54.99, a $5 increase over the non-vibration version.

The price really does not bother me since it comes out to less than a 360 wireless controller, battery pack, and recharge cable by a good amount. Plus I do not see myself needing more than one since I mostly play singleplayer games on the PS3 and if I do need a second controller the person can just use my old one and live without rumble.

Does it still have those horrible analog triggers, or did those get a (much needed) redesign too?

Great. Now they can bundle them in with new PS3's. I've been waiting for this since release. Judging by how much crying is going on in here it seems most people really don't care but for me rumble is huge. Now sony just needs 1 killer exclusive.

Can't believe how long they took. Seriously, anybody half serious about this could've imported one months ago. The DUALSHOCK3 feels 1000x better than this SIXAXIS crap. Totally worth it.
