What is the best alternative to the Playstation 3 Dualshock 3 controller for first person shooters?

by admin on April 6, 2010

I am wondering if anyone knows of a controller for the PS3 that has Xbox 360-like triggers and analog sticks. I have looked online for many hours and have found a few that seem descent, but none that I thought were really good. I am aware of the XCM cross battle adapter(plus and 2.0,) but i am looking for a wireless option. I am also aware of the Niko Zero controller, The Shadow Wireless Controller by Dreamgear, and other similiar products, but most of these either lack concave analog sticks and or concave triggers and most seem cheaply made. I am also aware of KontrolFreek’s FPS and Speed Freek Add-ons and similiar analog stick toppers. I am also aware of Giotecks Real Triggers and similiar products. I am also aware of Ben Hecks modded PS360 controller, but I don’t have the money to buy 2 controllers at around 50$ each and then possibly screw up when modding them. I am also aware that there are some PC controllers that supposedly work well on the PS3, but none of them seem to have all of the features I want. The absolute ideal would be a controller shaped similiarly to the 360′s controller that has wireless capability (preferably Bluetooth,) concave analog sticks, concave triggers and fully programmable buttons (so that PS3 games that have shooting mapped to the L1 and R1 buttons can be played with triggers rather than bumpers/shoulder buttons.) The bluetooth wireless and fully programmable buttons aren’t as important, but those things would be nice. I am also aware of how arrogant I sound in this question and I am sorry for that. I am just trying to avoid any redundancies. Any ideas or answers would be greatly appreciated.

most fps’s have customizeable controls, but the analog stick locations cannot change because that is the way all ps3 controllers are, but if you are looking for a larger controller like the xbox controller, go with a madcatz(but i think madcatz makes crap products)
