When you order a brand new PS3, you wont be getting two playstation 3 controllers. With video game consoles, usually we get two controllers so that we could play even multiplayer games. But its not the case with playstation 3. If you want to play multiplayer games with your friends, then you should be getting an extra controller by spending some extra bucks at the stores. The controller can be used not just for gaming purposes, but you would be able to do lots of stuffs using the controller that you get with the console.

Playstation 3 controllers are of two types. You can get a wired one as well as a wireless one. If you are going with wireless controllers you’ll have to pay a bit more than the price of the wired contollers. Playing games using the wireless controllers would be really great. The controllers will make you feel as if you are in some other world. The controller will vibrate at various situations and you can set some options and make it not to vibrate, if you dont like vibrations on the controllers. If you are a gamer that gives importance to performance, then you’ll be surely going with the wireless controllers out there.

If you are thinking of playing simultaneously with your friends, you should be getting some extra playstation 3 controllers. For that you’ll have to shell in some extra bucks for sure. But it would be really worth it. Playing games with your friends would be more enjoyable than playing alone. You would be feeling to challenge your friends and from then on, it would become a cycle in which each of you would be challenging the rest of the players out there. One thing to note is that – you wont be getting bored that easily, when you play multiplayer games along with your friends.

The playstation 3 has got a good user interface which lets you surf the contents of the harddisk, play games online, play games from the cd rom drive and much more. But you would be able to do these only with the help of playstation 3 controllers. Without controllers, you wont be able to control your cool gaming console. They are the soul of the console and for the same reason, its one of the must have things with the console. Using the controllers, you can do pretty much tasks the same way as you do in your computer using a mouse.
