Does anyone know of a wireless playstation 2 controller that doesnt suck? I bought a junky wireless Gamestop controller a while ago and the buttons dont respond too well, to the point where it is ruining the gameplay.

So if anybody knows about knows about one please post a link or just tell me where I might be able to buy one.

Thanks a lot. I really need a wireless ps2 controller. They're a tad expensive, but that's to be expected. Thanks again.

The Logitechs are the best, but if you want to save some money and get a controller that is the same quality get the newer Pelican controllers. They are $25 (some Game Crazys sell them in 2-packs for $40).

DO NOT get the old crappy Pelican controllers... they are just utter crap!

http://www.logitech.com/lang/images/0/3493.gifAh, that's my baby. I bought two of those (through this site) and have rarely touched the Dual Shock 2 since. These are the best controllers I've ever owned.

The logitech one is good, but it does not last. The X button broke (the underlying plastic was ripped) after about 3 months of moderate usage. I was very disappointed since I like everything about the controller. I have never broken any PS/PS2 pads before this.

No signs of wear or anything. What do you do with your controllers?

I didn't do anything,I played mostly Disgaea during that time (which, as you can guess, pushes alot of X button). I don't push hard or anything, like I said, I have never broken a controller this way, ever.

The thing that killed my Logitech controller, actually, I believe was God of War. Or maybe Devil May Cry. It still worked, but the X button started to get really loose. I replaced it during one of the refurb deals recently.

Have the newer version of logitech wireless and have had no problems. I love these and have no desire to go back to corded.

If it's only 3 months, you could probably get Logitech to replace it under warranty. I heard they are prettty good with their warranty service.

You can find used Logitech wireless controllers at EB games or Gamestop for $19.99 or $14.99. That is where I got mine for the xbox and ps2. (Make sure you get insurance! Its worth the extra couple bucks, especially when you get them this cheap.)
