Not worth 33 quid at all though

33 quid for a DS3 makes the Harmony one at 69 ...well different league.

I prefer the DS3 over the sixaxis purely for the extra weight and better sticks. The rumble is just a bonus.

slapped a set of real triggers on as well, mint.

real triggers?

are you on drugs? They aren't the same thing. Get a blu-ray remote if you watch movies on your ps3.

I'm talking functionality.

What I am saying is £33 for a DS3 is pricey for what it is.

I'll be getting a IR recciever for the PS3 so the Harmony one will control the whole cinema room!

Including the lights~!!!!!!!

Agreed. The DS3 is a waste on films. The BD Remote is a fantastic piece of kit if you do watch a lot of media though.

Hey McFly I bought a DS3 for games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It does everything you need it to do on the PS3.

Theres nothing it does that a standard controller wont do..

Its 33 quid for a rumble.

Thats my point!

given a six axis retails for about £27, no it isnt lol

Not sure where?

even so its expensive for a rumble!

its the price of a controller, 360 pads are just under £30. im not sure why you find it so expensive when you want to buy a harmony one to replace a remote that capable of doing exactly the things you're buying the harmony for. yet you dont have a problem spending 70 quid on that!

Shiny Shiny screen!

Its more than just rumble, the sticks are better and its abit heavier. I take it you aren't into games? I can see why you feel alittle lost with this thing then. Get a blu-ray remote if your PS3 is going to be for your home cinema.

30 quid for a controller is not expensive. You use it a lot for games and it lasts a long time.

I don't know why you're complaing about 30 quid. Judging by your home cinema build, you seem pretty well off.

I am enjoying playing some games on the big screen.

I'm not complaining ,It was just an observation.
