Third Party PS2 Controller Hands On

Have had the third party PlayStation 2 controller (this one > here) for a while while now.  Have tired out six games with it.  Am very impressed with it.  Sure it’s not the same.  But it is pretty close.  The buttons to have more travel.  The sticks are very nice.  Am very used to they PS4 controller so jumping back to the PS2 the sticks are much closer together.  When I played some FPS games found that my thumbs bump into each other.  That is not the controller fault.  It is the games size a the original PS2 one.   If you are in the market for a PS2 controller and can’t find an original this is a very go option.

Third Party PS2 Controller

Have made a few post talking about soft modding my PlayStation 2.  All so talked about third party memory cards.  Have gotten the PS2 up and running.  The thing is my controller is the original.  The analogue sticks feel very sticky.  Gave it a clean.  Which didn’t help much.  All so the rubber is peeling off the left stick.  So was on the hunt for a new one.  Didn’t want to pay too much.  Looked at third party ones on Amazon.ca.  Found out for a good price, $13.00.  This one > here.  I know it will not be good as an official PlayStation branded one.  But if it works good and I can play the games fine.  Will be happy.  Should have it some time next week.
