Poor Quality controller - Reviewed on 2008-12-19

These controllers DO NOT LAST. I have had to replace my controller three times in the last twelve months due to the analogue sticks becoming faulty. When playing games such as call of duty (when you need the R3 button to sprint)the analogues break and become unresponsive through general use. Playstation have released a ridiculously poor quality product which I am suprised past any quality control tests. I regret buying these crappy controllers.

The PS3 remote looks a lot like the PS2 remote but will not stand a drop on to a laminate floor!
My son dropped his and made it "rattle", I took the back off and couldn't believe how many small parts are inside, (unlike the the PS2 remote).
Yes it is a good remote to use and seems to hold its charge for a long time but considering the console's high build quality and the price of new controllers, it should be as robust as the old PS1/PS2 controllers, (certainly not made for throwing whilst playing a frustrating game)!

these controllers are not nearly as good as x box 360's ..i bought my ps3 2 months ago and the left joystick is now worn out..in 8 weeks!! thats not really any use is it?
needs sorting out to be able to handle the use it is ment to be design for....
even when it worked it was much harder to aim with...

Ok, for starters will say to people who complain that there is no rumble feature. Its a 6-Axis controller if it had a rumble feature it would be registered as movement and effect your game. Duh!
But anyway to my review. The only thing that i like about this controller is that it is light...thats all i like. It feels a bit small and it also feels like it would snap in half if i gripped it too tightly. I do not liek the shoulder buttons, the lower ones feel like they would break easily...guess what!? They did. Now i have an Xbox 360 so i play that a lot more that my PS3, so i left the controller in my drawer (with nothing on top of it may I add), i got a game for my PS3 as it had the expansions free for the PS3...when i went to play it...the R2 + L2 buttons wouldn't respond...there was a lot i could not do. I have no idea why they broke and i don't really want to fork out ??30 pounds to play a game that cost me ??20. i am very disappointed.
