Posted Mar 7, 2008 at 9:03AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: PS3 Tags: NiMH, Nyko, SIXAXIS

Nyko Technologies has previously unveiled its latest line of PlayStation 3 peripherals with the Zero Wireless Controller, but we've just recently heard its announcement via press wire. Aside from having the SIXAXIS motion sensing feature, it also includes Rumble Support for the more hardcore PS3 gamer.

To give you an idea of the full capabilities of this new PS3 accessory, here's a list taken from the Nyko website:

Dual vibration motors for full rumble feedback in supported games
Up to 25 hours of continuous play with removable, rechargeable, NiMH battery, complete with USB charge cable and optional battery compartment
Reliable 2.4 GHz wireless technology for reliable and responsive range of up to 30 feet
Equipped with a precise accelerometer that detects six different directions of motion
Standard backlit LED buttons, precision analog sticks, durable buttons, and curved triggers
Unique metal polymer hybrid design with heat-dissipating aluminum panels, available in three distinct colors to match the tastes of every gamer; Black, Silver and White

The Zero Wireless Controller is currently available at all retail stores for a premium cost of US$ 59.99. If you're into serious gaming, then you should make sure to check out this high end wireless controller.

Actually, the PS3 Rumble controller will retail for $55, and I'm sure you'll see it on sites like Amazon.com for $50 a pop. Take into consideration the fact that the price of the older Ps3 controllers will most likely drop down to around $30/$35, and third-party controllers like Nyko's won't mean much as things currently go. Until they start offering better hardware or more competitive prices, the first-party hardware is sure to win out.

Just go to Play Asia and buy a real one. You can get them now, they even have white and silver. My silver shipped yesterday. It only comes to $66.70 with shipping thats only a buck or 2 more than this after taxes. And it's official Sony.

Go here:http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-aifh-71-bm-49-en-84-k-40-extended.html

It helps me if you follow that link. But just type in Play-asia.com if you want. Just get the real one this one's reviews aren't that great.

Hehehe....it takes all kinds. I love keeping it around just to show how people FREAK OUT over caps and so forth. How can such few key strokes be so "annoying" to people. Hilarious.

Anywho, I agree! I'm waiting for the official Sony controller. 1. I hate dongles and 2. Of all the reviews I read, many people didn't like how this controller felt in their hands.

"Then he has childish arguments with anyone who opposes his views."

Only with you. I guess that makes you the child.

"Since I've already proved him wrong numerous times"

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! !! You have never ONCE done as such. Please humor us all and post some links to where you've done that. I'll get you started:
