I played CoD MW3 just fine. That game also allows me to change the fire/aim to triggers.

I use it for Battlefield 3 as well however dice were to moronic to allow you to shoot/aim with L2/R2 so you got to use R1/L1 but its still better in my opinion then the PS3 controller with sticks that twist, hate that.

Just got to be sure you remember that Y is Triangle, X is Square, B is Circle, A is X.

Every game I used it on has worked fine.

Also it requires a wired controller.

Re: Best ps3 Controller?

if anybody out there was experiencing the same problems as me. watching this vid fixed my issues. it makes sense that the connector isnt getting good contact nad causing the controller to press random buttons.

I use the Batman controller. I forget who makes it. I didn't know about the adapter and wanted the 360 layout. I haven't had any trouble with it.

I was reading that this controller is very good and it doesn't look too bad. I think the PS3 controller is wireless while the 360 version of this one is wired.

The usual routine is this:

- 3rd party PS3 controller = wireless, but no rumble

- 3rd party 360 controller = has rumble, but is wired

Re: Best ps3 Controller?

Does that one feel close enough to the 360 controller? What are the triggers like on it? Looks VERY comparable, and if it's sturdy, I'll take it.

I don't own this one but I've read some really good things about it. It's $34 at BBY right now and was actually $19 a month ago.

Re: Best ps3 Controller?

Might have to try that controller (or the aforementioned 360 to PS3 adapter). We've just got one Dual Shock 3 and our SIXAXIS that came with my Motorstorm PS3 Fat, while rumble was still a 'last generation feature' according to Sony before they lost the lawsuit.

I've always just kind made due with the DS3, but did use these for a while until one snapped off never to be found again:
