The controller only lasted a week then died, the other thing is what no one tells you on these sites selling them is that aftermarket controllers don't have the interactive ability so you can't play games that require 6 axis controllers.

Man this thing looks and feels awesome but sadly it is one of the most unreliable controllers ever sometimes it will randomly hit a button which can be really frustrating in the middle of an online
FPS battle. Also sometimes in a game the camera will start moving in a random direction, mine usually goes down but sometimes it goes up. Also, this has happened twice to me, if you push the sync button the thing will not reconnect to your PS3 it just blinks for 3 minutes then shuts off I've tried everything on the stupid thing but it will not connect to my PS3.

first of all dont listen to the other reviews, the reason it wouldnt sync with those peoples ps3's is because this controller has a little part that goes in the usb port nd you need it to sync, it works is all i can say, it dosnt have motion controll like the real ps3 remotes and it goes through batteries VERY quickly, like 3 hours so i pretty much have to keep it plugged in at all times but other than that it works other than that the little usb connector on the front jammed in so i had to get a screwdriver and open it to fix it.

The day I got this Item it worked fine then the next day it did not work..

I play call of Duty allot. This is a cheap inexpensive controller to use while playing it. I found the analog stick on the PS3 controller was getting screwed up while playing this game. It might take a match or two to get used to it but it is a pretty good feeling controller. I'm not sure I like the rumble part of it though. It feels pretty sturdy while in your hand, not cheap and light like most aftermarket controllers. It is not bluetooth so you have to use a usb fob, but that is not a problem. The instructions that come with the controller for syncing it up don't work. I found online if you turn on the PS3, then Turn on the Controller, then hold the sync button, then plug in the usb fob, then when the flashing lights slow down push the home button it works just as intended. Once synced the home button works just like a blue-tooth controller. For $23 this controller is well worth the money, especially if you play COD and don't want to shell out the $50 every couple of months for a new sony controller. I'm a little disapointed that sony would put out such a crap controller!

the controller broke in three days I think it was refurbished but can you check the product before you ship garage out to people. sell the dam thing on e bay that is expected on that website.

I've purchased this remote....I'm not pleased with it at all....
It doesn't function right.... When you try to move the up and down analog
it doesn't respond...So please don't purchase this....
And i would love to have a better one...I'll even send this one back.....
THIS REMOTE SUCKS BADLY!!!!!!!

PS3 Turbo Shock III Wireless ControllerThe Intec turbo shock 3 PS3 controller is a great alternate controller. It is substantially cheaper and is most similar to the Dual Shock controllers that come with and are sold for the PS3. It functions the exact same as the dual shock 3, and I believe it will be a worthy substitute for people trying to save a little money. There is no awkward shape or funny placed buttons for you to get use to. Plus it is a lot cheaper than the alternate controllers sold in brick & mortar game stores. The Intec turbo shock controller takes triple a batteries and comes with a USB plug that use must use to sync with the PS3. The hand grips are slightly bulkier and it has a chrome face plate that might require cleaning, but for a price range of $5 to $30 I think the minor adjustments are doable.

Pros
1.) About 60% faster response then the official PS3 controller
2.) Works almost completely like the official ps3 controller
3.) Has turbo for most buttons ( i have not try top buttons yet )
4.) Has shaking support to increase the lifelike of games.

Cons
1.) Needs AAA batterys to be called wireless ( Batterys are not included )
2.) I have no idea if this supports for slim ps3
3.) Requires for the usb signal to be plugged in to work ...
4.) Sometimes conflicts with the official ps3 controller ( if both are turn on ) but it can be fixed by holding the PS button ....

If you ask me if you should get this for your PS3 system i would tell you with a big yes, even though i have no idea if it works on PS3 slim as i heard it has trouble but i do not have a PS3 slim only a PS3 Fat so i can't tell you if it does or not ...

Controller is nice works very well and i've been kicking peoples but in the games with the precise play of it really good!!!!!
