Anyone have any thoughts on the "new" Ps3 controller? I do like the Dual Shock design (although my hands have gotten more used to the Gamecube contoller), but I would have preferred something a little different. Plus this accelerometer thing seems like a very last-minute hack.

Somewhere they mentioned a "tilt sensor", which seems an interesting idea. The controller in itself is starting to look outdated, would have preferred something fresher.

Late reply but..
I've heard the "new" ps3 controller does not have dual shock. You can control games with the sensor on the controller though. Like the wii controller.

Yup, no rumble. They had to get rid of it because of some copyright problems.
