have you taken a look at the hexbin package? 'cex' , 'pch' & 'col' will let you
make the changes

Google on "R Graph Gallery" to find examples with code.
You can also almost certainly RSiteSearch() on appropriate keys to
find a pre-existing function (which someone may provideyou on the
list).
Also:

Look at the symbols function for some options of doing what you suggest (you
can also do a search for "bubble plot" for a couple of other implementations).
If you want to go a bit further than what symbols does for you then look at the
my.symbols function in the TeachingDemos package.

You don't give an example, but in general you can use a vector for cex with
the values proportional to the third variable.
Same goes for color: col can be a vector, not just a single value.
This has been discussed before on-list, and fairly recently.
