Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent Cheap Controller Pair for Couch Co-Op

Most of the reviewers giving this negative rating based on sticks sharing common d-pad and button inputs don't seem to have grown up with the original Dualshock-style controller they emulate. In the middle of the controller, between the sticks, is a small button called "Analog". When you press it, the red light turns on, After that, the analog sticks become analog sticks and no longer share input with the D-Pad and buttons. This is a throwback to the days of the original Playstation where early games couldn't work properly with the analog feature enabled. However, my first order came with a poorly assembled one - the vibrator motor assembly broke internally and rattled. around and I only had two of the four discs I was supposed to have, so I returned those two and ordered a few more. They have arrived and work great. My experience with these controllers is based on a previous order of other "universal" controllers of the same design with other brands. In general, the entire sequence of these controllers work roughly the same. The keys tend to be a little tight at startup and wear out after a while. Triggers aren't analog and you typically have a single pressure point near the center of the trigger, and pressing trigger "2" down can cause the trigger to rotate inward a bit without depressing the button - something to watch out for. The sticks are fairly responsive, although they have a fairly wide deadzone and their analog active zone is actually very short - it's very easy to jump over a certain range and go to either 0 or 100% either way. The "Select" and "Start" soft keys are clean and responsive. The D-Pad isn't the best, but it works, although it's not 4 separate buttons, it's a whole panel of 4 buttons, that jut out around the plastic case (compared to the D-Pad on the Xbox controller, which is a full plate that's completely external, not a shell). They have a single pressure point near the center of the trigger, and pressing trigger "2" down can cause the trigger to rotate inward a bit without depressing the button - something you'll notice should pay attention.
