Quadruple Gold Good Trader Global Trader - willing to trade internationally Canada

Looking for a controller, but it’s not easy. What is the best 3rd party controller to get? I am mainly using it as a Blu-Ray player with maybe a little light gaming. I dug it out tonight and the controller is nowhere to be found,

I did all my PS3 gaming with a Hori FPS Assault. It does not have gyro controls however, so there are some games I can't play. (e.g. I could only play the Killzone 3 demo up to the point where gyro is required) And for some reason Split Second wouldn't recognize it. But aside from that, it has served me well.

The generic DS3's are fine, good actually. The only problem is IIRC they don't power on the PS3 from the controller.

Awesome ty. I walked into a 2nd hand store the company I work for has and my good friend said she had one. Ended up paying $3.50 for a pink DS3. It needed cleaning but it works. I may pick up a 3rd party controller later on.


Just seen I had DuckTales remastered .. need to play this lol
