what is the difference between the ps3′s Dualshock3 and the Sixaxis controller? i have a game that says you can control and do certain things with the sixaxis controller. The controller im using said it was a dualshock 3, yet i can still do the things it says i need a sixaxis for.

Dualshock 3 has vibration
Sixaxis doesn’t

That’s the ONLY difference.

P.S. A Dualshock 3 technically is a Sixaxis (because sixaxis the name of the motion-sensing technology)
Your game is telling you that if you have one of the non-sony controllers (some don’t have the motion feature), then you won’t be able to do motion-controlled stuff.

    Lol, what are you blind? It says SIXAXIS on the Dualshock 3 controller.

    As said, all PS3 controllers are SIXAXIS controllers. Dualshock 3 controllers are SIXAXIS controllers with vibration.

    Dualshock 3 = vibration
    Sixaxis = motion sensing

    There are only 2 types of PS3 Controllers.

    DualShock 3 Sixaxis & Sixaxis

    The Sixasis has motion control.

    The Dualshock 3 has motion control and vibration.

    Dualshock is superior.
