Are they any good?

Do you reckon it adds to teh gaming?

I've got so used to the non-shock one, i'm not sure i remember what i am missing comparing with the old dual shock ps2 controller.

IMO it's a must on racing games!

Thought you'd have known that been the racing FANATIC that you are lol.

But on a racing game I always use a wheel. Thought you would have known that! :tongue:

Got mine from yesasia.com, took about two weeks to arrive though.

Cost $60 including delivery, which works out around £30 (the normal sixaxis is £35 in the shops :shock: ).

Almost everything I've tried so far supports it too :thumleft: Resistance, GT5p, Uncharted demo, Blazing Angels 2 demo, Pain, Stardust.

Battery lasts just as long as the sixaxis, something I was concerned about, but apparently it has a larger capacity battery :)

Oh, and available in black, white (which looks sweet), or silver. I got the black on to match my original sixaxis :?

Well no, at best it is pretty crude, but then again its much more realistic than a controller.

I use a logitech driving force pro (the GT4 wheel). Would really like a G25 though with clutch and H pattern gears.
