    Hi guys

    Just got my hands on a friend's old PS3 but I have to sort my own controller(s).

    Anyone know where I can get the best price on a controller?

    Amazon's free delivery usually requires a sale of more than 25pounds. However it's based on the supplier you are buying from on Amazon.

    You would be better off getting a good ps3 3rd Party controller for a 1/3 of the price instead of a Sony Licensed controller.

    Because they are awful? You get exactly what you pay for, an inferior product with no reliability whatsoever.

    Agree, I got one and it is crap compared to the original. Build quality and button responsiveness not the same.
