Sony Official PlayStation 2 DualShock 2 Controller (PS2)

This feature measures how hard you press a button. This is particually useful in driving games, pushing the accelerator button down hard will mean you "floor it" and speed off. While presing the same button lightly will mean you accelerate at a more relaxed pace.

I've had two dual shocks for over 4 years now, and if i'm totally hounest, I don't treat them very well. They go flying accross rooms in frustration quite often, yet have still worked fine to this day.

All the buttons are easily accesible and the controller is comfy for hands of all sizes. Which is more than I can say for the XBOX and Gamecube contollers.

If you are looking to replace your current PS2 controller, or want to purchase more for multiplayer fun with friends and family, I would reccomend no other controller. Except no immitations and go with the official and best.

The dualshock2 controller is identical to the orgininal dualshock, which was a favourite among gamers, apart from colour and the analogue feature.

Although the Dual Shock 2 looks like a black version it's older PlayStation brother, there are several improvements. The pressure sensitive buttons allow increased precision and the analog sticks feel more tactile. A great controller suitable for all game genres.

This controller is by far and away the best one available for the PS2!! If you need a second controller, then buy this one because all the others (although slightly cheaper) are not in the same league! Fork out the extra cash and get this one!
