I am looking for a nice but cheap PS2 wireless controller and was wondering if anyone here might offer me some help. I heard that these ‘Hip Gear Wireless Controllers’ are pretty OK but I’m not sure that’s true since they’re ridiculously cheap. And I also heard they eat-up batteries extremely quickly. Has anyone here had any experience with them? Any kind of info would really be appreciated.
I’ve been using Hip Gear Wireless Controller for about six months and I’m pretty satisfied with it. I must admit that it spend batteries quicker then I thought it would, but I’ve heard that it’s like that with all the wireless controllers. The thing that worries me a bit anyhow is that I can’t find the manufacturer’s site so I don’t know who I’ll be sending complaints when something goes wrong. And I don’t think it’s ridiculously cheap – I paid 20 dollars for mine and I know people who bought their controllers for less than 15.
