This is a great controller jus like the classic ps1/ps2 the design stayed the same. This is the perfect controller i can not say anything about the slick design.
As you may know this controller is wireless so you may use it from newere in the room so no messy wires hanging around. And the batttery lasts very long i dont have to charge it very often but i dont play hours every day either.
Only bad this about this controller is that unlike the ps1/ps2 controllers this does not have dual shock so no rumble :(.This is because sony could not get rights for the technology. Sony what happened?
Well good news this controller is being released again next year as Dual Shock 3 is comming out. So if you can wait i strongly urge you wait for it to come out as it is a great feature. The feeling for the game is lost without dual shock. Need For Speed didnt feel the same without it the ride felt so smooth and unrealistic.
It also has a great feature called SIXAXIS which was not in previous versions of the playstations controllers. This works similar to the Ninetendo Wii controllers where it is motion sensitive. This currently is not avaliable in all games yet but i do know that it is harder playing like that but with practice it will be just as easy and more enjoyable.
This controller is great value for money if you have a ps3 i strongly recomend it. if you dont have a ps3 i stil recomend it as this controller is pc compatible so you can use your favourite controller to play pcs games as well.
If you wish to use it on pc all you have to do is connect the usb cable that you usually use to charge the controller with to ur pc. Then you will need to download the driver then install it and then you are ready to go
