Fun:
Do not buy this gamepad. It's not even worth your time and the trouble of having to return it. It will almost certainly not work out of the box. I've had to return two Mad Catz gamepads one wired and one wireless, none of them worked.
You have been warned.

My controller arrived yesterday, and I've already tested it.
Pros:
- Easy install
- Good Looking
Cons:
- AA Powered
- The ergonomic design is not as efficient as the sixasis dualshock 3. Finger touch analog stick while pressing start buttom.
This review was considering buyers that wil use the controller to play on PS3. It will work fine. Its not a dualshock 3, but its nice too. I've bought this one to use with arduino boards, so for me it will certainly a good choice.

Fun:
This isn't a bad controller for the price. I managed to get mine for £10 so very cheap in comparison to the official controllers which generally cost about £40.
The problem with this controller is that the buttons are quite chunky, you have to press them down harder and it just isn't as smooth to use as the official controllers that you will be used to. This is ok for the casual gamer like me, but if you are planning on using this controller all the time or for games that require quick reaction times I could see it becoming annoying. Another problem with this controller is that you have to use AA batteries in it, which not only is a pain in itself but also means that the controller is alot heavier to hold and alot chunkier.
I haven't had any problems with it working so far and it was easy to connect so no issues from that perspective.
Overall I would say that for the price this controller is definately worth buying if you are planning on using it for casual gaming or as a spare, if you're looking for something to use all the time that's smooth, light and good for quick reaction times then it's probably worth spending the extra for an official one.

This controller works well and is a perfectly acceptable replacement/accompaniment to the standard ps3 counter-part. Read more
