    Bought a PS4 for Christmas with one controller

    Need to get a second controller, I see the gator claw in Argos is cheaper than the PS version

    Are there any drawbacks

    It being wired I'd assume is a huge drawback in this day-and-age.

    Unofficial controllers hardly ever feel as nice either, do they? Button feel on the normal PS4 controller is nice.

    I think it's always best to stick with official controllers with any console.

    That controller looks very similar in shape to a Xbox One controller - which is either a good or bad thing depending on preference.

    You get what you pay for.

    Might get a second hand one on adverts?

    my hands clamped up after looking up what that controller looked like. Looks horrible to hold and use.

    Considering the price difference and the fact that it is wired, doesn't really make much sense to but it over an official ps4 controller.

    Regardless of the games you buy, you will be using the controller over to play them so its pretty much a good investment considering that you will buy and finish games and probably never play them again and pay similar money.
