The controller looks larger than the Sixaxis and has gotten several great reviews for feeling great in the hand -- which is one thing I'm looking for in a third party controller. However, many of the other reviews say it's unreliable, the rumble is crappy, and the connection cuts in and out mid game. For $50 I can't have any of that. Still waiting for that perfect third-party controller that might never come....

I really never liked 3rd party controllers... Although this one had promise because it used some aluminum plating to "dissipate heat" from the hands... I'm one of those guys that can get pretty sweaty hands when intense parts of games kick in and that doesn't help me play better.

I would be happy with this controller if instead it was bluetooth capable, larger battery, and instead of rumble had small fans blowing through the underside of the plates like a heatsink to really keep my hands cool... that'd be awesome. ultimate awesome if rumble could fit without causing the controller to last only 2 hours.

I dont stare at my controller while playing. Glowing buttons dont wow me. Too bad it doesnt seem to function good and its styling is bad just like when people put body kits on cars driving with them unpainted. I like my Dual shock 3 better then that controller.

It looks more comfortable than the Sony controller. Thats one thing I liked about the 360, the large controller.

Sold.

+1. I really don't see why looks should even factor into the purchase of a controller. I guess these guys don't have abnormally large hands like we do!

Looks shouldn't, but the quality should. This thing is a POS. Go read some of the reviews.

Nyko is a piece of CRAP!!
The Mouse I bought fell apart in 2 months time, the grip literally disintegrated and the rest just kind of melted for no real reason. @_@

THe controller I bought same thing, buttons got jammed, the sensitivity sucked, grip somehow melted too. My hands AREN'T THAT HOT. WTF!!

I'm glad i didn't buy third party this time. I never had issues with 1st party
psx , or any other console first party controller

The Wireless logitech one is also comfortable. I used one with my ps2 before i got my ps3. They made 1 for the PS3 also.
