Complete garbage!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Complete garbage the controller disconnects back to back while in game. The buttons randomly push back to back. The left stick moves itself constantly so I can't even aim properly on cod games. It's complete garbage and they need to remove this broken product from the store.

I love my PS3 remote. I always purchase the protection plan for the PS3 remotes. My boys are hard on them, and Best Buy is great about replacing them when a button or analog stick breaks.
What's great about it: Playstation has the best video game controller
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ive gone throught 3 of these so far in the past 6 months from playing NHL 10, It seems after using it for a while the same thing always happens, the right analog stick which you use to shoot and check which are key parts to playing hockey will get stuck in the 11 oclock position and must be pulled back to center everytime, which gets annoying after awhile, so there shot after it happens but at $60 bucks a pop there hellishly expensive
What's great about it: Love the wireless and original design
What's not so great: There made cheap, they need to be build stronger
I would recommend this to a friend!

Rumble Returns

When the controller begins to shake, that just makes the experience so much better. The vibration function is impressive, a little more advanced than Dualshock2 for PS2. The price is a tad dissapointing though. Compared to the SIXAXIS alone, this costs more and only contains half of the battery life because it uses more juice. But, the price is worth it. How many PS3 games actually utilize the SIXAXIS feature? Oh well, now you can vibrate while you use the feature. I'd say its well worth the money. Its more durable than the regular controller and it just seems more fun to use. Any gaming experienced is greatly enhanced using this item. Get it, it's worth it.
What's great about it: Rumble - Heavier - Better Plastic Material
What's not so great: Price - Battery Life

Much needed addition to the PS3

This is a great controller and something that should have definitely come out with the Launch of the PS3. The Rumble function, just like the DS2 is great. It is capable of very subtle shakes all the way to a very forceful rumble. This controller is heavier than the Sixaxis, but the extra weight makes it feel more substantial and less flimsy. As for battery life, it is not bad, it might not be as good as the sixaxis but it still lasts plenty of time. I have been using it for many hours on GTA4 and the battery indicator has not dropped down yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

this controller is nice to have if you have friend or family over but its a little expensive for a controller and its a little heavier than the old one. it doesn't matter to me, but some of my friends don't like really like the extra weight. the only reason i would recommend it is because its the best feeling controller and the other ones are hard to get use too.
What's great about it: its nice to have
What's not so great: the price

Works like the original. Because it is the same thing. Cordless is the way to go.
