first of all I would like to say I have been a massive gamer since I could hold a controller, From racing games to 1st person shooting games, Arcade styles to rpgs anything with an amazing story line where I can sit for hours and play, So the controller is a very important part of the gaming experience and I feel the playstation 3 controller truly ticks all of the boxes.

I titled the review 'if it ain't broke. Don't fix it' because Sony seemed to get it right the first time with the playstation 1 and have carried on to tweak it up to the playstation 3. The controller fits comfortably in your hand and your fingers fall on the buttons, making game play very fluent and natural. Analog sticks are very smooth and responsive, some may argue that it would be better with a dent like on the 360 controller but the grip does the same job and I don't really don't think it makes a difference. The buttons are very easy to press and I really like the trigger like L2/R2 buttons, great for shooting games like cod or medal of honour.
