A must have for xtra guests! - Review written on October 24, 2008

Though only a handful of Playstation2 games require two or more players, is always best to keep an extra set of controllers at home.
They are long lasting, and can withstand some minor abuse such as falls on the floor, or the anger of a young frustrated player who tossed it away after loosing a round.
SONY made these in other colors, and I'm glad they went beyond the basic black, and included this ocean blue and the gray, and a few others. This one has some transparency so you can see a little bit inside.SONY's design is made for the human hands and is very comfortable after hours of gameplay, unlike Nintendo's design on their Gamecube controllers, this one feels natural in your hands.
This color is very appealing as it not too dark or too clear. If blue is your favorite color, like mine, get one!

When I first purchased the PS2 dual shock controller from Amazon, I was under the impression that I was purchasing a Sony product--similar to the image that was being advertised on the website. However, to my amazement, the package that I received was a bootlegged version; I felt like I was duped. Unfortunately, weeks later in my follow-up feedback, it was finally brought to my attention that the item was not an original Sony product. In the end, I wished that the seller could have been more forthcoming about the product, otherwise I might not have purchased it in the first place. I guess that's what happens when you pay $7.50 for it; it was just too good to be true.
Overall the controller is still compatible with the PS2 system and the item was shipped, brand new, in a timely fashion. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the genuine version then this is the way to go, otherwise do not even bother.
