4.0 out of 5 stars Decent controller, not as awful as everyone says, November 3, 2007

By	Zacharie D. McClain "Zacharie" (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

I don't normally give reviews, but I thought this one needed some positive feedback.

The controller is (as someone else said) basically a PS2 controller. Although it does have PS button to use for the XMB menu. As stated, it does not have tilt sensors and requires a USB port. However, the controller works very well and since I have 1 game that uses tilt controls optionally (Warhawk), I didn't see this as a drawback. However, one should keep this in mind when they make the purchase. It is a great controller to pick up if you won't require tilt, as it is $20 less than the OEM Sony controller.

The lack of bluetooth means 2 things: 1) You cannot turn the PS3 on with this controller, and 2) it requires a USB port to operate. No big deal.

Another plus of this controller is that it works with the PC. I plugged it right in to my PC using WinXP and Ubuntu and both picked it up fine. Nice bonus.

So, if you don't need tilt and don't have issues with using a USB dongle, this is a great buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, December 20, 2007

By	olajoe (Aurora, CO) - See all my reviews

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

Obviously it doesn't have six axis and you can't turn on the system but you can turn it off. But the controller is a little bit heavier and it feels a little wider because the outer grips are more narrow shaped. I laid one on top the other (Sony) and it's very noticeable. This controller is also taller because of the battery housing which for me it feels like there is more reach or space in between when using the L/R buttons on top and triggers on the bottom. Compared to the Sony controller this one also has a bit more plastic and that added with the weight of the batteries makes it feel more durable. So if you got bigger hands or you like to have a firm grip for me this controller felt a little bit more comfortable and definitely worth the reduced cost. By the way, I have used this to play through more than a handful of PS3 games and it works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars This product is better than the PS3 Syaxis, December 14, 2007

By	Tg2 "eat_sleep_golf" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Well I'm not quite sure why everyone says this controller doesn't let them get to the PS3 menu's with a "PS3" button because it sure works for me.
Here's why I like it :
1. It feels bigger and more solid than the PS3 wireless controller. (To me the original Syaxis is too small and feels cheap).
2. It seems to move smoother in shooters, more accurate as well.
3. It's a piece of cake to plug-in and get working. And it stays working - you don't have to relink it every time.
4. So far the battery life seems very good.
Much better solution for me...
Good Luck!
