they should bundle it with mgs4.

I can live without rumble, but it's pretty damn integral to the MGS experience.... dammit.

Isn't it already bundled with the MGS4 PS3?

It's ridiculously overpriced.  I'm just going to wait for friends visiting Asia to bring me back one.

it was cheaper for me to just import one, no taxes too

Yea, the price is gay as fuck but oh well. I want rumble and I don't have a second controller, rendering TM:HO and CAC useless.

i just want a heavier controller tbh, not a fucking plastic bottle with analog sticks.  i'll probably jump on the DS3 with an online coupon.  full price?  fuck no.

I imported one from Play-Asia, cost me AUS$52 which is fine considering the Spastix controller is AUS$80

I actually like the Sixaxis more, the rumble implementation is so subtle on GT5p it may not be there at all.

55 bucks?  Whatever.

I need the rumble. Guess I've got no choice but to buy a couple of 'em.

Correct, the solution is in the OP
