hey so my cousins are coming over this month so i went to the store and bought a new PS3 dualshock 3 so that i and my cousins can play some tekken 6.but this controller is a bit different.it is an original and from Sony but there are some differences between this and the one i got in box with my PS3.here are the differences:
the standalone is a bit grayish vs the the shiny black one i got with the PS3
this has kind of Matte finish vs the glossy finish on bundled controller
the sparkling(the usual standard dualshock skin) shiny skin of the controller is less visible vs the shiny black and sparkling of my previous one.
this all above might sound weird but i'm kind of perfectionist so i like my things the way they are.i love my old controller but the new one feels and looks different.
this the first time i'm buying a standalone controller for my PS3.i had kind of a same thing when i bought standalone PS2 controller.it was also a bit different.so anybody who has two controllers,please tell me whether it is normal or there is always a difference between standalone's and the one's bundled with the ps3.
