 Love it! June 20, 2008
This has helped to clean up my living room from the clutter of cords and controllers. It is friendly to all ages, just like the normal controller, except for the cord of course. Would recommend this to anyone.

Logitech makes the best wireless controller hands down! Seems flawless and feels good. Batteries last a while and there is a hint before they die.
 Great addition for any PS1/2 May 30, 2008

I have been using my controller for a little over a week. It's nice to have a well-made cordless controller for the PS2 and not have to worry about wrapping extension cords just to reach a couch!.
Overall I am pretty much without complaint. I have never had a single lost signal or any interference or lag. This controller does pretty much what you would expect it to do.
Cons:
1) Batteries. - This controller doesn't seem to play very nice with rechargeable batteries. I was only able to get about 3-4 hours of use out of it on a fresh recharge of 2500mAh AAs before the low battery light began to blink and all vibration was forcefully disabled. I know the batteries still have alot of life in them, but I guess since rechargeable batteries only hit about 1.25v instead of the full 1.5v of a retail battery, the controller thinks them near empty all the time.
2) Buttons. I don't particularly like the D-Pad. It feels like a cheap piece of plastic suspended over a stick. I never feel like I have as accurate control using it as the standard PS2 D-Pad.
Overall, with those two quirks aside, This controller operates as you would expect and feels well-made.

After a few times of pulling the controller too far away from my PS2 Slim and jerking it around I started to get frustrated. The limited variety of places around my TV also frustrated me because I couldn't put my PS2 on top of the TV with the controller cord being so small. At first, an extension running down the side of the TV worked well but I still wanted to get rid of the cord. Don't get me wrong, I think the Playstation Dualshock 2 controllers are some of the best controllers around to date. But being the proud owner of an Xbox 360, wireless controllers are an absolute luxury and Microsoft has wireless controllers down to a fine art in my opinion. So, with credit card in hand I tracked down a wireless controller at Walmart. In my hastiness (as always) I picked up the Pelican Predator (whatever version it is). At first, the controller worked fine, and for twenty bucks I thought I had a good deal. But I quickly discovered the controller to be too uncomfortable and it had the crappiest rumble I have ever felt. I am very wary of Pelican products now. We'll just leave it at that.
So, credit card in hand again, I jumped on Amazon and tracked down the Logitech PS2 wireless controller. I bought a refurb, but it was guaranteed to work, had a warranty, and was the cheapest ($20 w/ Sh&Ha).
I received it today, and I was scared because it was the same as the Pelican controller at first glance. Then I held it. Very comfortable fit in my hands and all the buttons were just RIGHT THERE. No stretching or funky stuff. You can turn the rumble on and off at the flip of a switch as well. It also has a lovely timeout mode for when you aren't using it. But when you go back for more action, it wakes right back up. Flawless reaction times without any radio signals or etc. The rumble is better than the Dualshock controllers as well.
People are right when they say that this controller is the best wireless controller for the PS2.

Controller works great with most games. Uses radio frequency so no need for direct line of site. Slight lag when playing fast action sequences while other radio devices are in use nearby. I use it near my sat radio, weather monitor, phone, etc. Works at a distance of about 20 feet. I would recommend this product to friends.
Fast shipping and good customer service as usual with Amazon.
