Customer Reviews

Almost Perfect4
I purchased this as a present for my husband, and am mostly happy with what I have. As many reviews have stated, Dualshock is a much better experience for playing games than the original sixaxis.

My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a USB cord to charge it. That being said, the great thing about PS3 is that it isn't proprietary and will take any usb cord.

Overall, a good purchase.

Great item.5
The controller has a heavier feel to it than the issued one for PS3. What can I say that wasn't mentioned on other reviews. This product works great. My only gripe is that PS3 should have made the dualshock the issued controller.

Works perfectly5
The controller works beautifully,and the extra weight on the controller doesn't make much of a difference. Though it does feel a bit sturdier than the non-dualshock ones.
