Received my Dualshock 3 today...

I'm dedicating this weekend to setting up my new place -- especially my office/gaming/viewing room. I can't wait to be settled, gaming, and blogging at my usual pace.

Today the Sony Dualshock 3 arrived. I'll have to re-rent Resistance: Fall of Man to give it one last try. Maybe the third try with a meaty, vibraty controller will be the charm? In the meantime I do have God of War 2 at home, waiting to be played and returned to Gamefly. Maybe I'll try some of that this weekend instead of returning to The Darkness (which, as of my last post, had started to pick up).

I sincerely hope that the Dualshock 3 does for the PS3 what Akibono/Controller-S solution did for the Xbox. Say goodbye and good riddance to the Duke and the 6 axis controller.

Returning Resistance until I get my hands on a DualShock3 controller

Sony is allowing developers to patch in rumble support for the (still yet to be launched) DualShock3 controller.

Insomniac just announced that their most recent patch to Resistance: Fall of Man enables said rumble support. Now I just have to wait for the actual controller to hit the market...

I keep hoping that I'll like Resistance, but my day one impressions at launch ranged from depression to ... well, depression. After another week of R&C: Future Tools of Destruction I figure I'll return to rabid Insomniac 'fanboi' status and be ready to give Resistance another chance. Hopefully a meatier controller with rumble feedback will save the day and help me appreciate what other reviewers and fanboys have been raving about.
