Good move with the triggers and caps4stix - it's a whole WORLD of difference. Bung a silicone skin on it as well (it's amazing how much 'beefier' a skin makes it feels) and the Dualshock 3 is all of a sudden halfway acceptable. Kind of.

And that was just towards the end of Uncharted. Real triggers much improved though.

Wow, I can't easily pull them off my 360 pad or my DS3 deliberately. They wrap over and under the thumbstick head and are very securely fixed on my pads.
Silly question, but are you sure they were 100% on in the first place? Maybe you had a defective moudling or something, or an older version? I've just tried pulling both sets of sticks all over the place, and given them much heavier abuse than they'd get during normal gaming and they still won't shift!

Weird.

My caps 4 stix are fine also. I did have to almost turn them inside out to make sure tht they went all the way around the top of the thumbstick though.

I found the instructions for making one here. Looks fiddly though, but definitely doable. Well, maybe...
Well, Im no good with that sort of thing - too impatient with fiddly bits - so my mate is gonna have a go for me as he loves stuff like that. I will post pics if and when he gets it done but it probably wont be for a couple of weeks yet.

The only problem is that you will be stuck when it cones to the sixaxis bits, thats the reason that I decided not to get one.

Killzone 2 uses the controller's motion sensor feature for certain things in the game, like arming bombs.
