Sony,
Has really stepped the Dualshock line of controllers up 3 notches. The touchpad, ergonomics and sixxasis. Really comfortable in hand and much larger than its prior predecessors. Enjoy hours of gaming with this controller.
I love it but the battery life could have been slightly better.

Works as well as any other ps3. Camo is a great alternative to the solid color controllers.

Official Sony controller; why fix what's not broken. The design is flawless. I've used the same controller that came with my original PS3 since 2006 until I needed a new replacement from parts wearing down.
The texture, the feel, the weight, the layout of the buttons, the size, the battery life... it all just feels good to me. I have nothing bad to say about it.

Official Sony, better than a 3rd party controller

A good controller that helps show why it is usually better to go with official products instead of 3rd party ones. This controller is very durable. During hard gaming sessions I have gripped it and rotated it in ways that you probably shouldn't. It has also been dropped and, on more then one occasion, attacked by my cat. But it still works just fine! The battery also charges relatively quick, so it isn't often that i'm not able to play when I want to. The digital Camo design is also very nice. It helps the controller stick out, so I always know where it is. If I have any gripes with it, it is that I am above average in size, so the controller feels small in my hands. But after I start gaming with it, I acclimate to it rather quickly.

I love this controller and when I eventually wore out the original one (same controller) that came with my PS3 I knew I wanted to get the same exact one. I have heard so many terrible things about the cheap brand controllers that can be bought at other retailers and how they need to be replaced often because they are- well cheap. I play rough and have not broken one of them yet! I also like the feel/ texture of the controller its smooth and not slippery when my hands get clammy.

Not only do these controllers look cool, but they also work very well! I replaced the default dual shock 3 and figured sure camo for COD makes sense. The feel of these controller during game play is great! No slippage like with the gloss black controllers. Very happy!

Was in need of a PS3 dual shock controller and after review controllers not made by Sony, decided to get the Sony made one. Got it in gold just to change things up a little bit and it works great. No problems and my kids like having a different color one.

This is a great controller. Since it is by Sony and the official equipment for the PS3, you cant go wrong buying it. The buttons are easy to press and using the controller is comfortable. The pretty gold color is a plus.

PS 3 controllers are reliable and long lasting. I have had to replace one due to water exposure and another because the buttons began to stick, but that controller was several years old. However, I am disappointed that the price of the controllers has not gone down. The controllers cost the same as they did when the PS 3 was new.

As always Sony has outdone themselves with a stylish, functional item that will please even skeptics. Color pattern is very well put together and believable. A must have for my collection.

The gold controller is exactly the same as the stock one that comes with the ps3. Its a great controller I have had no problems with it, the gold just adds to a more premium feel.

Nothing like a fresh controller. Got it so I could play 2 player games with gf. Batteries last long and charge fast. They kinda feel sturdier than a Dualshock 4.

Larger than PS3 controller, with play enhancements

The PS4 controller is larger than the PS3 controller, which makes it easier to hold, and has a smooth slicone like covering on handles for easier grip. Play enhancements include real-time action sound directly from the controller speaker, new mic, and larger colored light display to signal activity, battery life, etc. There are also added buttons at each front left and right side to enhance game play moves and stunts in various games, and has a "share" and "options" buttons on face (top) next to left and right finger buttons; includes an an ext port and headphones jac.
