=== Controllers and accessories === [[File:DualShock3-in-Hand.jpg|thumb|[[DualShock 3]] controller in hand]] {{Main|PlayStation 3 accessories}} The standard controller at the PlayStation 3โs launch in 2006 was the wireless [[Sixaxis]], which featured a built-in accelerometer capable of motion sensing across three directional and three rotational axesโsix in total, hence the name. However, it lacked vibration functionality. In late 2007, Sony released the DualShock 3, which added vibration support while retaining all motion-sensing features.<ref name="TGS DualShock 3 hands-on">{{cite web |date=September 19, 2007 |title=TGS '07: Spot On โ The Dual Shock 3 |url=http://www.gamespot.com/news/6179170.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071012102413/http://www.gamespot.com/news/6179170.html |archive-date=October 12, 2007 |access-date=September 20, 2007 |website=GameSpot}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=October 8, 2007 |title=DualShock 3 will launch on November 11 in Japan |url=http://kotaku.com/gaming/vibe/dualshock-3-getting-all-ceramic-white-for-japan-308546.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071221060114/http://kotaku.com/gaming/vibe/dualshock-3-getting-all-ceramic-white-for-japan-308546.php |archive-date=December 21, 2007 |access-date=January 14, 2008 |website=Kotaku |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=February 26, 2008 |title=Sony Announces New 80 GB PS3 Bundle, DualShock 3, Red PSP |url=http://www.dailytech.com/Sony+Announces+New+80GB+PS3+Bundle+DualShock+3+Red+PSP/article10868.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080415231145/http://www.dailytech.com/Sony+Announces+New+80GB+PS3+Bundle+DualShock+3+Red+PSP/article10868.htm |archive-date=April 15, 2008 |access-date=March 17, 2008 |publisher=Daily Tech |df=mdy-all}}</ref> Numerous other accessories for the console were also developed including the [[Logitech Driving Force GT]], the [[PlayStation 3 accessories#Logitech Cordless Precision Controller|Logitech Cordless Precision Controller]], the [[PlayStation 3 accessories#Blu-ray Disc Remote Control|Blu-ray Disc Remote]], and the [[PlayTV]] [[DVB-T]] tuner and [[digital video recorder]].<ref>{{cite web |title=PlayStation 3 Accessories |url=http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080113064221/http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories |archive-date=January 13, 2008 |access-date=January 14, 2008 |publisher=SCEA}}</ref><ref name="PlayTV press release">{{cite web |date=August 22, 2007 |title=PlayTV on PlayStation 3 explained |url=http://kotaku.com/gaming/clips/play-tv-on-ps3-explained-292541.php |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080912172259/http://kotaku.com/gaming/clips/play-tv-on-ps3-explained-292541.php |archive-date=September 12, 2008 |access-date=October 14, 2008 |publisher=Sony Computer Entertainment Europe via Kotaku}}</ref> In response to the popularity of [[Nintendo]]โs motion controls on the [[Wii]], Sony introduced the [[PlayStation Move]] in 2010.
