...card for £29.99.
Third Party:
There is no shortage of third party controllers, 4Gamers, Logic3, Madcatz but none of them come close to this masterwork which totally outclasses them all. Please dont allow yourself to be seduced by the price tag. Do the right thing get a Sony :D ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Sony game pad
Advantages: Very comfortable, many control options, loads of buttons Disadvantages: D-Pad can the thumbs after a while
I have this controller hooked up to my PC for use with pro evolution soccer 3. I previously owned the sidewinder gamepad but there are too few buttons on this controller to make full use of the game. Pro evolution soccer was designed for the playstation controller so it seemed sensible to buy the PS2 controller for use with this game. There is a special adapter out on the market that allows you to connect the PS2 controller into your PC USB port ... ...to this website to get the adapter but if you would like to know where to buy it from msg me and ill tell you the website because i dont think you can buy it anywhere else at the moment. Look and Feel: I think everyone has seen a playstation controller in there lives. The controller is very comfortable and fits perfectly into the palm of your hands. Every single button is within reach and no extra hand movements are needed to use different buttons. ...

Advantages: Easy to reach buttons, dualshock adds excitement Disadvantages: Playstation Thumb - recognised medical condition!
They have GOT to bring out a more comfortable version of this - my thumb has never been so sore! As you'll know if you read my review of the Harry Potter Quidditch game I bought last week, the combination of twiddling the controller plus the dualshock left my thumb feeling like it had been dislocated - when I got up the next day, my thumb felt numb from the knuckle down to the tip. This is a recognised medical condition - "Playstation Thumb" - it ... ...in the thumb, leaving them de-sensitized. Apparently this also affects people who use road drills! Some road drillers have found this to be permanent - is this what we gamers can expect? Is an epidemic about to sweep the land? Well, probably not - at least I can switch off the dualshock feature, but the poor road drillers are stuck with it. And it's my own fault I suppose - playing the game for far too long, into the small hours, is bound to have ...

Review: Sony Game Pad.
The Sony Game pad, overall is an extremely responsive control pad, so you can get the fast response when playing those type of games where you need to multiple things quickly. It is a very attractive pad + its great to use, very nice to handle, comfortable. Its very easy to use, buttons are well spaced out, and easy to get to. Not really, any extra features it has, besides controlling the functions of the CD & DVD player. ...

Advantages: Nice and good on the hands Disadvantages: hard to reach select and start
I have had a playstation for the past 3 years and I have noticed how this pad is better than any other. I have been to many game stores and tried different controllers and also controllers for other consoles and I have found this pad is more ergonomic. It fits your hands perfectly and you can reach the main buttons with out the need to ever look.
I have a few problems with this controller though; firstly it is hard to reach start and select as they ... ...not completely nessacary, however, these controllers do get quite warm with playing some very tensional game and the sweat on your hands does make the controller very slippy. When playing racing games, it is very hard to jump from one button to another with the same thumb and this can hurt after and hour or two.
Overall though, I think this is the best gaming pad out there, so buy it if you have a PS2 and not already got one! ...
