    ""How is the Warranty Work?""

    Yeah great Engerish Shopping Square, sounds heaps reliable.

    • I've only ever bought from their eBay store (Apus) and they've been fine. Never needed warranty support though. I can't vouch for the company or the product but thought it might be interesting to some.

      • because apus bound by ebay and paypal buyer protection

    Isn't a SixAxis controller a Sony branded controller? Or are they trying to get around it by calling it SixaxisTM to make it look like it's the real thing?

  • Controller - $9.95
    Shipping - $9.99

    Go figure.

    • I'm pretty sure they jack up the shipping rather than the item price to avoid tax.

    A word of warning: Sony periodically blacklists imitation controllers in PS3 firmware updates, it's happened to me with cheapy controllers I've brought off eBay before.

      True, some third-party controllers stopped working after the 3.50 update in 2010. Not sure of any other occasions? That's the risk you take with a $10 controller I guess.

    • That's gonna make people resent Sony… but that's Sony's problem. I'm kind of suprised since HDD's are swappable.

      • Well if some people were restricted to the original 20GB (60/40GB in Aus?) then it would be an absolute waste of money when most games take 5GB HDD space. It would be a controversy and a half.

    These imitation controllers are horrible. Ok for OS navigation or video playback. For gaming you will end up throwing it at the tv in anger

    • ^^ This.
      I hate myself for going cheap and buying a 'Generic Brand' controller.
      Battery life was maybe 25-30% of the original
      Turns itself off within a few minutes of not being used
      Didn't seem to be as responsive
      That was just my experience with the one i bought anyway

    • Would these work on PC with directinput or will it need glovepie too?

  • buy a dozen you will need them or buy the original for the same price.

  • Worth a note here : the ones I bought from dealextreme has been working really well. No issues with battery life. So some generics may be worth it.
