    Chillstream3
    I used it for 2 hours today while playing Resistance and noticed it does indeed keep your hands from sweating but that's about all it does. The speed control button only works when it wants to and the d-pad gets stuck either in the up or down directions almost every time you try to use it. It also didn't feel as responsive as the SIXAXIS. My biggest complaint though is that there is no PS button! There is no way to go back to the ps3's main menu when you are playing a game or watching a movie without the PS button. You can't even power on/off the system with this controller. Inventive idea but with many flaws.

    PS Button1
    If you don't have a PS3, then the comments by the other reviewers below are probably cryptic. I own a PS3 and when someone said, "No PS button" I realized that it was off my list as a possibility but after reading through the reviews I realized that there were probably a lot of people who would not understand what this means - and were they buying a controller the same day they were buying a PS3, well, they might consider this - Logitech is a good name in keyboards and they usually get it right.

    The PS button serves as an "on" button when the PS3 is off, thus allowing you to turn on the PS3 from the controller. (This works whether the controller is wired or wireless). When playing PS2 games on the PS3, you need to push the PS button to reinitialize the controller when stopping or starting the game. When playing PS2 games, you use virtual memory chips that are stored on the hard drive - you "break out" of the game to move the chips to different slots using the PS button. Some games only access the first of the two virtual slots, some access both of them but won't switch where they will save, but you can get the same function as you would with physical chips by breaking into the monitor and moving virtual chips from slot to slot while the game is running (but suspended).

    When you want to stop a game, ps2 or ps3, you hold the PS button for a couple seconds and a menu comes up. This allows you to determine the state of charge of your controller if you are using it wirelessly, turn off one controller, turn on a controller (so that you can join a game) renumber controllers and so on and so forth. It also provides the only access that allows you to stop a game - which allows you to access the browser that is built in to the system, download demos and complete games and upgrades that might be available through the Sony store and so forth.

    The point is that without the PS button, the controller is more or less useless - especiallly for PS2 games because they require that you press them to initialize the controller when you start the game. I'm not sure how I could use it - there may be some other way for it to get initialized.

    Now, I'm currently playing "Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII". I've managed to get as far as the first battle of Midway. It is a game which can be played with or without the tilt - and when the tilt is on, there are two patterns of controls - one puts the rudder on the second stick so that it does the same thing the pedals normally do and that is the one I use.

    But it would not be a good game without the tilt. I've played it both ways, and, well, tilt just wins. There are a ton of things I hate about the PS3 stock controller (the biggest of which is that the "L2" and "R2" can be hit accidentally too easily, you have no idea how many times I accidentally dropped hand grenades in Tomb Raider - Legend while picking up the controller after a break), but I won't replace it with something that does not have a PS button, and I probably won't replace it with something that does not have the sixaxis stuff. Yes, that probably means I'll be using Sony controllers forever...but Sony could license the fan from Logitech.

    I expect more games to put real function on the tilt in the future. That will further make controllers like this one less than useful. Maybe there will be a version two with tilt and a PS button - I'd kinda like a bigger controller myself.

    Lame - don't buy this.2
    I got this out of desparation but then found out there is no PS3 button - this renders this thing completely useless except it has a fan which addresses the problem of sweaty hands (what?)
