CIPON Wireless Controller Replacement for PS-3 Console, Bluetooth Gamepad Remote with 1.8 M Cable (Black)

Wow, I realize the PS3 is an old console, but that's why I purchased this controller. OEM PS3 controllers are difficult to come by these days, and I can't imagine buying used ones. br>br>Having said that, I do own a couple of third-party PS3 controllers, and this one is by far the best. I put my skills to the test by playing Black Ops 2 and Ultra Street Fighter 4. I assume that if it can play competitive games, it will be fine in all other genres. br>br>joysticks are good, by which I mean that the dead zone is similar to that of any other controller, such as the Xbox One or the PlayStation 4. As a result, it can play shooters just fine, and it can also handle fighting game inputs. I'm not sure why some 3rd-party controllers have such poor joysticks. I'll gladly pay more for usable joysticks rather than just functional ones. Buttons are great, and I really like how it was designed. Rumble is also good, and it doesn't require a USB dongle to connect. People may have issues with the trigger because it functions like a button rather than a set of triggers, but because the PS3 controller market is on the verge of becoming a legacy console, this is a great buy or a MUST buy for PS3 owners.

There are a lot of controllers out there with different designs, but I was most impressed with this one's stylish design. I like how thick and responsive the grip is, as well as how smooth the control is. I recently purchased a new one. But beware: the battery life has now been depleted for seven months, and the device will not charge and no replacement is available.

br>It works well and is more comfortable than the PS3 controller that came with it. Shoulder buttons are strange at first, but once you get used to them, they become second nature. br>It's a real shame it came used and with marks on it. The logo on the Center button was off to the side, and the plastic red trim piece on the controller was popped out and not set flush in the grove designed for it. br>br>Overall, I would recommend it if it was brand new and cost $12. This is an excellent controller that you should purchase. br>br>It just irritates me that I have to waste time returning yet another used item from Amazon when it should be brand new.

If you need precise controls for aiming or any other gaming-related task, this remote is a waste of money. I saw a description of the product that claimed it could self-report precise controls, which is completely false. Before the character in Modern Warfare 2 can throw his grenade, the L2 button must be depressed completely aggressively. And don't bother with aiming- When you try to move the stick slightly to the right for a more precise shot, the character remains stationary. I even increased the sensitivity settings, but it didn't help. Unless you're playing a game like chess, just go to eBay and buy a Sony remote.

Because I couldn't find a decent aftermarket PS/2 wireless or wired controller, I bought this controller to use with the Brook adapter on my PS/2. Even when the controller was laying on a table and not being touched, all aftermarket PS/2 controllers had problems with the character moving around. br>br>I've only had a few minutes with this controller, but I really like how it feels - very strong - The joystick and buttons respond to your inputs - I was able to connect without any problems. The only drawback is that the power button light flashes while charging, which is supposed to stop when the battery is fully charged. I charged it for 30 hours and the light never stopped flashing, so I have no idea how long it takes to fully charge. Aside from that, I've been extremely pleased thus far. If anything changes, I will revise my review.

Our granddaughter uses it to play all of her games on the PS3, and our children use it to watch movies. It performs admirably, has a stylish design, and a few extra features. It works, and it works well, which is the most important factor.

I read somewhere that these analogue sticks are decent, and I agree. Tired of overpaying for used PS3 controllers and blindly purchasing 3rd party controllers with poor analogues (it's as if they just put a d-pad on top and masked it as joysticks, all third party controllers I've seen have this issue, no ability for proper control in fps, platformers, or racing games)? These controllers, on the other hand, do not have that problem, and I can confirm that their analogue joysticks function properly. In my opinion, there is no need to use any other third-party controller. Advantages: br>br> The price, the usability of the analogue joysticks, and the responsiveness of the face buttons are all factors to consider. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. L2 and R2 are a little mushy at first, but it grows on you. br>br>I'm happy with my purchase and will buy more in the future as a backup.

The only gripe I have is with the l2 and r2 buttons. They feel a little flimsy, but they do the job, and I'm thinking about getting three more to complete the set!.
