While this controller feels great in you hand, for what it's designed to do it falls short.

As a FPS controller this thing has all the right features, turbo/macro, sensitivity settings. However the right stick has way too much dead zone for anything but left and right. As a person who prefers to be a sniper in most games this is a dealbreaker.

Go ahead try to make a tiny circle with the controller in any sensitivity setting. The controller seems to only work well in 0-45-90 degree rotations and nothing in between. Making small adjustments to my aim in games was frustrating and not worth what I spent. I went right back to my DS3 and was much more satisfied.

If the team could make the analog sticks work as well as the DS3 then it would be a great controller. However for shooters this just doesn't work.

I did however kick some ass in button mashers. (IE running games, some fighters)

This controller fits my hands so much better than Sony's Dualshock. It has almost an Xbox 360 feel to it (whose controller I prefer) and all the buttons are very responsive and work excellently. Plus, it looks sleak.

Highly recommended.. Mass Effect Trilogy is playing WAY better with it than the Dualshock..

I like this product, and people will especially when they convert Consoles, (WII U or Xbox to PS3) Button Mapping is flawless, very fluent, and closely compacted, as well as a flawless D-Pad that's easy to maneuver. Holding it doesn't make your hands cramp, enough space to hold it w/ both hands and is a MUST have for Xbox Controller Lovers. Controller should be more expensive, it's very nice and cheap and the material feels very nice in my hand. Only Con is the back buttons and the sensitivity on the R3. Back Buttons are Stiff and the R3 Button is sensitive, but easy to get used to after you use it. Over-all rating / 8.5 (See the Review Video here: By Cronizone)

Honest reviews on PlayStation 3 GC-2 Wireless Controller

One of the things I dislike about the PS3 is the DualShock 3 controller, I love the Xbox 360 controller and this product has the best of both worlds, the battery lasts even longer than the DualShock's one and the controller itself is very comfortable.

The turbo feature is amazing too, I don't use it that much but it's very helpful when you have a very repetitive task in a game and you have to press the same button a lot of times, this aplies mostly to RPGs for me.

.. the R1 button stopped working. No matter what I did, it wouldn't register when I pressed it. I much prefer the Xbox 360 shape of the controller, but if the buttons don't work then it's useless to me. I threw it out. I won't risk buying another. Such a shame too, because it felt so good in my hands. Very unfortunate.
