PS3 Lava Glow Wireless Controller – Red
This is a pretty nice controller, bigger than the standard controllers and better for your hands overall. Its functionality is nice and it plays smooth. The glow feature is nice and the 3 AAA batteries powering it last a long time (about three weeks). One problem is it’s wireless but it doesn’t use the system’s Bluetooth, so one of your USB ports has to have a transmitter plugged into it when you use it. Also, the controller starts to wear after about two months – mine being a bad connection with the R2 button because of how much it’s used on PS3 games. Because it’s not a Bluetooth controller, it does not have any SixAxis capability. It’s a good controller while it lasts, but I’ve switched back to the DualShock after getting sick of having to hammer the R2 button with my finger every time.

This controller doesn’t automatically connect to its USB receiver, so every time you want to use it, you have to go to the console and push a button on the receiver, then push another button on the controller to get them to pair. And it doesn’t necessarily work the first time. Plus there’s no way to attach the receiver to the controller, so it’s easy for them to get separated / the receiver stick to get misplaced.
Once it’s connected, it works fine, but it’s not worth the trouble.
