Rumble all the way5
I only own dualshock controllers, so I cannot compare it to the sixaxis shockless controller. Works with PS3 and PS2 games. The design of the L2 and R2 buttons took some getting use with switching from the PS2 controller.

I tried to use the sixaxis for MotorStorm and had to turn it off. Is hard to keep the controller flat when laying in bed (the main way I play). It does add more "realism" to the game when you are able to actually use it.

Wireless is the only way to go.

Dual Shock 35
They should have shipped all PS3 with these from the start. Controller is noticeably heavier than the Six Axis, but it still feels good.

the rumble doesn't work with call of duty 4 game4
this control doesn't work for some games, only the ones that support rumble. so far doesn't work for call of duty 4 and motor storm. it works for assassin's creed. those are the only games that i have.
