"I bought this for my 14 year old grandson for Christmas. He tends to get a little engrossed when playing on his PS3 and had been using the cheaper compatible controller(s) - he broke 2. This official controller is sturdier and is most definitely worth the money."

"This was £18 cheaper at Argos than the Game shop along the street, they said they wouldn't match it so I checked stock and reserved it on my iPhone, bought it and took it home. It's the real Sony thing and is perfect."
