Alright, I need to get a second controller, it's no fun playing those multiplayer games on your own when my friend came over.
AND I really want LittleBigPlanet, But unfortunatly, I don't have money for both a DualShock 3 and LBP..
I'd would keep enough money if it were a Sixaxis controller, but we don't have them anymore in the Netherlands..
So, are the cheaper 3rd party controllers any good? I heard alot of stories about them breaking down :O

Thanks in advance :D

i would not buy any controller apart from an official sony one.

if you want a sixaxis controller your best bet would be to look on somewhere like ebay.

I would stick witha standard Six-Axis as well if you're on a tight budget. You can even pick up a used one for pretty cheap f you look around, just remember to charge/sync it before use, I always thought my controllers were broken when I first got my PS3, and would try to use the controllers on my buddies console.

well thats a risk that you will have to make i havent gotten a third party controller myself because of the fact that they might break down. maybe you can order a sixaxis over the net im sure you can order it.
