I actually have four. Two Sony and two off brand. I've never had a problem with any of them.

Of course im not the only one using my controllers :)

I will NEVER buy offbrand ps/ps2 controllers, the three i bought for my ps stopped working within months whereas my sony ones have only been broken by people (spills, buttonmashing, dropping, ect)

I have two Pelican AfterGlow Pro controllers.

They're a little bit smaller than the Sony Controllers, and the second shoulder buttons are recessed back a ways. They actually fit into your hands a lot more naturally than the Sony ones, and it makes it a lot easier to use all four shoulder buttons, as you can comfortably keep your middle fingers on the second ones.

Anyway, I've found that their design makes some games much easier to control, as everything is more accessible. However, there are also some games that don't feel quite right on them (Katamari, in particular). All in all I've been quite happy with them, but I'm glad I have a set of Sony controllers to go back to as well.

Once, I bought a Mad Catz controller. It was janky from the moment I started playing with it, and completely stopped working within half an hour of casual play.

I've always wondered how that is started.
i know the "kissing disease" but two non-mono kids couldn't get it, right? Or does it just form on its own. :?
Can get ahold of me @spookyxcraig

A kid at my school once got mono because he pierced his ear with an unsanitized safety pin. His ear turned blue and got all infected. >_<
