Initial thoughts by RaysurX

The "new" SONY analog controller was released to coincide with the release of
TOBAL #2 in Japan.  This new controller has the same design and feel of the
current controller with the addition of two ANALOG directional "thumb"
joysticks, Bigger and easier to find RIGHT 2 and LEFT 2 shoulder buttons,
larger hand controller grips and the most significant addition... FORCE
FEEDBACK!.
  
FORCE FEEDBACK works in the following way: For example.. if you are playing
RALLY CROSS (ANALOG + FEEDBACK supported) with this new controller and you
drive over a jump and land really hard!! Well.. this new controller will not 
only give you better control with its NEW analog joysticks but when you land 
really hard or hit something.. the controller will shake 'rumble rumble rumble' 
in your hands... YES SHAKE/VIBRATE! The sensation can range in severity from 
very mild to  very strong, the strong feedback sensation is similar to holding 3
pagers/beepers in your hands and all three vibrating at once. BUZZZ!!!!  The
rumbling/vibration is created with mechanisms or motors that are located in
the new larger controller grips. Also in fighting games such as the upcoming
American or current Japanese versions of TOBAL #2 and BUSHIDO BLADE, if your
opponent lands a solid uppercut through your face… you'll definitely feel it
through your controller! !! BUZZZ..!! 

The new ANALOG thumb joysticks are well constructed, responsive and
ingeniously nestled between the standard directional buttons and the X,
square, circle buttons making them easily accessible yet not obstructive.

This controller can be used with ALL SONY PLAYSTATION games but the ANALOG
and FORCE FEEDBACK features are only available in supported games.
Currently only 2 Japanese (TOBAL #2 , BUSHIDO BLADE) and 1 American game
(RALLY CROSS) support the ANALOG + FORCE FEEDBACK features of this new
controller.
But keep in mind that this new controller doesn't have to replace your other
controllers on the contrary, its actually 4 controllers in one! ANALOG, DUAL
ANALOG, Normal Digital, and FORCE FEEDBACK!

This controller also supports games that were configured for the "very bulky"
SONY DUAL ANALOG FLIGHT STICKS. Games like BOGEY DEAD 6 etc. etc.

Unfortunately the ANALOG thumb joysticks do not work with ALL "NeGcon"
compatible games.  With the exception of NEED FOR SPEED 2, all other NeGcon
games that I have tested thus far (Wipeout XL, all RIDGE RACER games, Formula
1 etc) have not supported this NEW controller's analog signals.

No batteries are required for this controller as the power necessary is
supplied directly from the Playstation via the controller cable unlike a
competitors NxxxxxxO 64's "RUMBLE PAK"  :-)  

Bottom line:
This is a well constructed, well designed and durable controller that will be
a fine addition to any avid gamer's arsenal of Playstation peripherals. The
force feedback is the main selling point of this controller and I found it to
be very entertaining and an enhancement to my gaming experience.
