Sixaxis controller

Advantages: Motion control, blutooth
Disadvantages: Feels light

I have owned a playstation 3 for a number of years now with a sixaxis controller. The controller is extreamly suffisticated as well as all of the normal buttons which are used for conventional gameplay it also contains a gyroscope which monitors its position and movements in six axis, clever hey. The sxiaxis motion control offers a new way to play games and makes things more interesting and more challenging. For example when playing a racing game ...
...may play a game where we just use the motion control which makes it alot more challenging and adds alot of amusement. Some of the best games I have found to use with the sixaxis include Super Rub a Dub very entertaining no matter who you are. As time goes on the use of the motion control wil get better and better and will include better refinement and more intuative ways of use. Overall the Sixaxis controller has a very sturdy build quility a ...

Review of Sony Official PS3 SIXAXIS Wireless Controller

Don't chuk it out the window or through the TV!

Advantages: Cheap price if you need to buy one, one comes free with the console.
Disadvantages: None

The Wii Nunchuk controller is used with the Wii console, both produced by Nintendo. The Nunchuk is used by plugging it in to the bottom of the Wii Remote (see my reviews for a review on this too!), it's very simply to use and very simple in design. It is designed to be held in one hand and is suitable for use in many different games (you will be prompted by the Wii when you need to plug it in or when it's no longer required. There are three buttons ...
...these are used for playing in a variety of games from being a shooter to being a boxer. If you use this for boxing it will help you to weave and block yourself as well as help you throw punches. In a first person shooter style game you may well use the joystick for moving your character and the C & Z button to shoot your gun & aim. The design of this is fantastic, it is white to match the rest of the Wii equipment and the console itself, it's very ...

Review of Nintendo Wii Nunchuk Controller

Overated fight pad

Advantages: Feels more comfortable than original controller and has a turbo feature
Disadvantages: D-pad is still not improved

Ok so I have not long recieved this from ebay and because of all the hype from these controllers being sold out they have now increased in price on the secondary marker. I managed to get one for £50 which I thought was a good deal until I used it. The reason why I purchased this was so that it can replace my normal xbox controller as the D-pad sucks for fighting games. As soon as I recieved this I tried it on Street Fighter 4 straight away and to ...
...original controller. The D-pad on the control is similar to the sega saturn one but only worst. Its hard to pull out the moves on this control as when you need to input specific commands the D-pad feels loose and is all one big button and you find yourself doing a dragon punch instead of a hadouken. Whilst it does look great and varies in different style as there is a Ryu, Ken, Chunli, blanka and a rare Akuma. The control is actually quite comfortable ...

Review of Madcatz Xbox 360 Street Fighter IV FightPad

Good. Better. BEST!

Advantages: Very Useful In Many Games
Disadvantages: Not Good In Some Games

Amazing? Good? Fine? I would say this controller is a very good choice for any Wii owner. The Wii console has a various amount of games meaning that this product will be perfect for some specific games. If you enjoy the old arcade styled platform games, this is the controller for you! If your a high speed racer who loves to race on racing games, this is even better! If your a new owner of the Wii console and need some help getting started and run ...

Review of Nintendo Wii Classic Controller

I <3 this controller...

Advantages: Wireless, Beautiful Fit, Pretty Buttons!
Disadvantages: Requires AA Batteries (can be rectified with a Play 'n' Charge kit)

This controller has allowed me to do so many wonderful things: I have been able to play Halo 3, CoD4, Prototype and Guitar Hero (well, not specifically GH because you use a Guitar.. duh!) and will continue to allow me to do this... WIRELESSLY. Ahh, people always shun Microsoft's Xbox, but I think it is beautiful - it's controllers are no exception. The controller fit is perfect, with triggers being exactly where your index fingers want them. The ...
...the buttons are pretty colours :D I love the little Xbox symbol in the centre. It's even interactive! If you press it, something happens (well, if the Xbox is off and you hold it down... IT TURNS IT ON! OMG I LOVE THIS THING) Huhmm... sidetracked? Wireless controllers are the way to go, and if you have an Xbox, don't settle for annoying wired controllers, go for this beautiful piece of equipment! ...
