So much for all of the other rumours out there citing September and October launches. It looks like the Deep Red and Metallic Blue DualShock 3 controllers are now available - if you know where to look. The red one (above) was scooped up at GameStop and the blue one (below) was bought at Best Buy, both for $54.99 USD.

Earlier rumours pointed the red and blue DualShock 3 controllers to an October release date, but it looks like it could actually be earlier than that. We should probably refer back to the very first rumours about the two controllers because they could actually be a bit more accurate. According to the latest Gamestop photo, the "Deep Red" and "Metallic Blue" DualShock 3 controllers will actually be available starting on September 22nd. The $54.99 USD price tag will probably remain the same.

Personally, I like the silver DualShock 3 better, but some people out there are tired of the bland colours. Here's a picture of the "Deep Red" and "Metallic Blue" DualShock 3 controllers. It was scheduled to hit the market in September, but it looks like it will be delayed until October. I'm sure you wouldn't mind waiting. Anyways, if the earlier rumours are true, this will be available for $54.99 USD when it launches. What about the PS3 Slim!?

On Thursday, I reported that the silver DualShock 3 has hit GameStop shelves. Well, it looks like Sony will also be releasing a "deep red" and a "metallic blue" colour this September for $54.99 USD too. Well, I know I'll be picking up a silver one, if I ever get the PlayStation 3 that is.

Alright, so the silver DualShock 3 is now available at your local GameStop. It hit the stores one day later than we expected, but I'm sure the fans won't mind. The silver DualShock 3 is now available for $54.99 USD, so go and pick one up.

E3 looks like it will be a massive event for Sony. The unveiling of the PSP Go! and apparently they could also unveil a slim PS3 model. Sony, of course, denied any hardware redesign related announcements, so just take it with a grain of salt. If you remember, a couple of days ago, the white DualShock 3 controller spotting was called a fake because of the UPC code. So, Sony is really being talked about everywhere right now. They're behind in the console war, so they must do something drastic and this could be it.

Could they unveil a slim PS3 at E3? Possibly. But, no one knows for sure. I'd be extremely excited if Sony revealed a slim PS3 because I still haven't gotten my hands on one yet. Hopefully, a slim PS3 will be cheaper and will come in 3 colours (black, silver, and white), but that's just my wishful thinking. I also hope they officially announce the white DualShock 3 at E3. Come on Sony! Do something.

We heard about it a couple of days ago, but the rumours continue. It's still unconfirmed, but it is now listed in GameStop's future retail list. The silver DualShock 3 controller will be launching on June 24 for $54.99 USD at your local GameStop. Again, could this mean that a silver Playstation 3 is in the works? I don't know. It could be some wishful thinking, but if you pray hard enough it might just come true!

That's the latest rumour on the streets. It all originated from a certain GameStop employee who said that they will be receiving a shipment of PS3 DualShock controllers this June. Since the silver controller is coming this June, could it also mean that a silver PlayStation 3 could be on the way soon after that? It's a possibility. The silver PlayStation 3 is said to make a debut this year at E3, but we'll just have to see if that really happens.
