I've used lots of different Playstation controllers, but the Sony made Dual Shock controllers are undoubtedly of the best quality -- better than any of the third-party knockoffs. So spend the extra money and get the real thing. Though more expensive, they're a better value in the long run.

I think I spent all of about 5 minutes trying to decide what I wanted when I decided to purchase a second controller for my Playstation. The dual shock controller is far better then the original controller. Not only does it improve game play because of the vibration but it also gives you the choice of the directional pad or the analog joysticks! When it comes to purchasing accessories for the Playstation it always best to go with Sony. It is definitely worth the extra (money) you pay vs. some piece of junk aftermarket controller.

What I was attracted to about this particular one is the cool transparent colors; the blue and red are my favorites. A great buy, and I would have to recommend it to anyone looking to add a second or third controller to his or her Playstation.

I traded my friend a game for this controller and it was well worth it. I noticed that i would do a lot better in all types of games which are mostly racing. You move around a lot better with this controller. If you want to add to your playstation gameplaying skills you need to get this controller it will definately help and it is well worth the cost evethough it is a lil pricey. So go and get it NOW!!

I use this on my coputer to play arcade roms, it work with a special
usb to playstaion converter.

This was an excellent controller for PS1, as it offered the excellent 'shock' feature, which made gaming better and more realistic. It also looks great, and has more accessible buttons. It looks alot like the standard controllers that came along with PS2's, so u might not be THAT impressed if u've already purchased that system. Also, there are now great wireless controllers that are awesome.

This controller i got for my playstation was my 3rd controller, the other 2 were the original gray ones. my brother in law has a transparent blue Viper 2 controller and thats the one i wanted, so i tried to copy him and this was as close as i could find. To me, this controller is just like the gray ones only blue, but the shock is better.

The PS1 controller by sony, in my opinion, is the best quality compared to other brands. The only thing I don't like is the L1 L2 R1 R2 buttons, it is confusing and difficult for me to quickly press one or the other during gameplay. Otherwise this controller is great.
Pros:
1) Small, lightweight, portable
2) Good quality
Cons:
1) L1 L2 R1 R2 buttons are confusing
2) Joysticks (in my opinion) are too close together
3) Start and Select buttons are too little
