PS3 Wired Controller
SCORE: 86
There are a variety of companies that make
PS3 controllers. I have a new favorite in the form of PS3 Wired
Controller from Snakebyte USA. This controller looks very similar to the
Sony one, and it feels a lot like it as well. There are differences of
course. The biggest difference is the logo. That we can immediately
determine which product we are using.
PS3 Wired Controller looks like the Sony Playstation 3 controller. The
home button, start and select buttons are a little bit different. The
logo for the triangle, circle, 'X', and square buttons are also very
different. They look more artistic to me. The bottom of the PS3 Wired
Controller is drastically different as well. This wired controller plugs
right into the Playstation 3 video game home console.
The buttons on the PS3 Wired Controller make satisfying sounds as
players use it. This is the extent of the sounds on the PS3 Wired
Controller. This is a controller so I won't punish it for that. PS3
Wired Controller is a useful piece of hardware especially if you are
looking for an additional controller on the PS3.
Snakebyte USA has created a very solid controller. I abused it in a
variety of ways and it continued to work. For those freaking out about
that, let me explain that it is part of determining the worth of a
product. The PS3 Wired Controller is two meters long. That is what the
box tells us. I checked the website page, and used a conversion tool to
verify that is six and a half feet. I found this to be an adequate
distance away from the Playstation 3.
There is one aspect of PS3 Wired Controller that felt odd to me. That is
the start button. I checked the original PS3 controller from Sony and it
has the same oddity. What is this oddity I am referencing? The right
joystick is close to the Start button. This is only noticeable when
starting a game, so it is a mild thing.
The PS3 Wired Controller feels really comfortable in my hands otherwise.
It feels very similar to the Sony controller. All of this cheaper than
the suggested retail cost of the Sony one. I like the PS3 Wired
Controller, and feel it is worth the price of admission if you are
needing another PS3 controller. Wireless would be an improvement for
future PS3 controllers from Snakebyte USA.
