I bought a dualshock 4 ps4 controller and it was a fake one, he wasnt giving me a refund so i put "scammer" in his negative review and he said keep the controller and il refund you if you call ebay and take down the review lmao
i dont know why people do this, leave a negative review before getting their money back. 10/10 times ebay will side with the buyer, which can be a pain as a legit seller dealing with airhead buyers, but i take waaay more chances as a buyer. legit sellers are way more likely to get ripped off than a buyer ever will.
I’ve always had a soft spot for those clear controllers as i used to have the Xbox original crystal controller, I loved seeing the mechanics inside the controller work it’s magic.
@@dantevic Damn. Guess I should keep the 2 I do have clean and proper for whenever I go play my ps3 again. They're terrible controllers though. I went through 4 with my 7 years of playing on ps3, and I was constantly cleaning gunk off of them. I bought a pre-owned ps4 in 2016 and the controller they gave me still works like a charm and it stays so clean compared to Dualshock 3s. Shining a light on it now and it is pretty dirty lol, but I've never even cleaned it once.
@@gummibear696 yea it sucks as sony have stop making them. The only way to get them now is if you can get a new ps3 to buy or a used one that comes with the og controllers. I see amazon has the fat ps3 for $1000+ (third party resellers)

3:56 I KNEW you were about to refer to the over resistance on the sticks, ive tried random third party controllers before (mostly for curiosity) and the 2 biggest things for me were always the high resistance sticks and the unplayable set deadzone. Also some wouldn't register multiple buttons presses in a row or require an odd amount of force to activate.
To tell if a DS3 is fake, plug it into a wall outlet and if it doesn't charge, its real. Also try test it in safe mode as Sony requires you use the official controller.
I rocked one of those glows controllers when I had my PS3 back in the day. That thing lasted me forever. The DPAD sucks but with the type of games I play I rarely use the dpad unless it’s for menus or certain mechanics. I almost wanna get one again
That berry colored ps4 controller was very tempting when I saw it on ebay. That one in particular, I know a bunch of people bought it cause those colors are sick. If only Sony did official color schemes like that and didn't bump the price too much.
I remember my older brother having a wireless Afterglow light up blue controller for his PS3 and I really enjoyed the feel of it surprisingly. Honestly it's the best 3rd party controller I've held. (But I haven't held many so I'm sure there are better ones.)
Great video! I usually stick with legit controllers and stay away from those type of controllers you feature in your video. Thanks for showing what’s out there in regard to cheap controllers.
1:25 I'm glad I bought it when the stores actually had them cause now I cant find it. I love that color combo on it,for sure one of my favorite controllers I owned.
I'm so glad you did this, ive wanted a new dualshock 3 but its been so long since they were made. The dualshock 3 is by far my favorite model. its nice to see content on these controllers
Nice video. Good to see these kind of comparison. I think it’s funny that some consumers think that a cheap price means good value. This video shows the fact that cheap does not equal good value
Thank you for this, I've been struggling finding detailed videos on these cheap controllers. I would just buy an official DS3, but they have almost no durability and always break sooner than you want.
Ryan you saved me with this video, I looked carefully at a "new" controller I bought and discovered in the included instruction manual that it was a fake.
The gold DualShock 4 I had the exact same model. Same price and I always wondered why my controller was bugging out. PCI on Mlb the show would constantly shake. Randomly my trigger buttons would input into the game even though I’m not touching them. Thanks for this video, because without it, I would’ve always assumed it was me breaking the controller.
I love the blue diamond one, I have personally bought that before just to tear it apart and use that shell on OEM Sony ones just to make it stand out :)
Question, do the shells of these controllers fit with the actual DS4? It would be great to make some custom controllers without throwing the whole thing away. That top part of the "doubleshock" controller and that diamond-like controller look sick.
"...or get it from Sony themself..." Yeah Mystic, that's fine and dandy if you need a PS4 controller, as you can still buy those. But if you're still on a PS3, like my broke ass, then you're screwed if you want a NEW PS3 controller. Cos you don't know what you're getting if you pick up a real, but used one. I bought one from GameStop, and the base of the left stick, had broken, and been glued back together. Another thing to consider, is that you don't know how much life is left in the battery of a used original controller. If you get a brand new one, you know it's gonna last you a few years.
I bought two cheap controllers from eBay almost a year ago and I still have my backup. I’m not one of these professional gamers either.. (What a job) lol
Do you have any tips on where to find good replacement dualshock 3 controllers? It's difficult finding oems in my area and even the local enthusiast shops sell bad 'refurbished' dualshock 3s that don't work as intended. I've been trying to play Folklore which requires sixaxis, but as it stands now I don't think I'll ever beat it.
The afterglow controller around 7:00 has a wireless variant which requires you to plug a usb into the ps3 for it to connect. I had one and i honestly enjoyed it.
The “wireless controller” at 3:00 is actually really decent for racing/action and adventure games. Not so much fps titles, but I use it all the time for NFS and GTA V. It’s not bad for the price
There are tons of these videos, all conclude the same.... a decent 3rd party controller is very rare. Offiicial are too expensive, but do work very well...
9:37 I have one of those I needed a 3rd controller back when I frequently used the PS3 and it broke in a couple days *ABSOLUTE* garbage, on top of that the USB it comes with came broken
Just some tips I wanna add. For PS4 controllers, I found that the lighting doesn’t change in the fake controller during the game where it supposed to change compared to the original PS4 controller which seamlessly change its lighting during the game. That the way I figure out whether it’s fake or not without pulling it apart. Of course, you could take the easy way and get a bunch screwdrivers to help ya out.
Not sure why people underrate this. It must be a hit or miss kinda thing because I ordered I replica and had such a good experience that I'm getting 2 more . UPDATE: 2 REPLICAS CAME AND THERE ARE BEYOND PERFECT. SUCKS THAT PEOPLE ARE SO CLOSED MINDED AND THINK EVERYTHING HAS TO HAVE A LOGO JUST FOR IT TO WORK PERFECTLY. ITS LITERALLY A SONY CONTROLLER WITHOUT THE SONY LOGO. THAT'S ALL IT IS.

You can't get an official new Dualshock 3 because there are so many fakes looking exactly the same that you are basically playing lottery trying to get a real one. You are better off going for a decent third party controller.
Ldast Symply because I usually like to go back and play the PS3 games that I have been playing since 2007, I don't usually care about new releases for the PS4 and the Switch that I also own and still can get OEM or great 3rd party stuff.
Ebay, reputable seller and only purchase if gives front/back photos.. look all the label info on back.. it's best to look at pictures and compare them to a real one if you have one. I wouldn't buy one supposedly new in box... just too hard and can't see the back logo info. Just try to find like new and use your better judgement. If you HAVE to have new in box, Imo the safest bet are the ones that came with a game if seals still intact but $$$$$.
The Glowy Controler for the PS3 that you showed in the video reminds me of the 'Rock Candy' Controllers that were sold everywhere for PS3 and Game Cube, I think Xbox 360 had some too, but I never laid my eyes on a 360 Rock Candy Controller.
The controllers with that bad stick resistance usually loosen up after a few days of use. It happened to my Afterglow 360 controller. Unfortunately that means you still need to put up with it for that long.
I bought mine for only 5$, and it's working well on my pc. It's already a year. It also has vibration. Just download the x360ce, and that software can set your keys.
@@realvivifromloona if you can't afford cheap knockoff controllers then u need to get your priorities straight. Sorry I'm not gonna sugarcoat bc yall are soft...its called responsibility How tf are u buying a console and games, but can't afford knockoff controllers?
All PS3 controllers you see being sold for cheap online are all FAKE. You can confirm that they are fake by installing SCP toolkit on your PC and connecting the DS3. A popup will tell if your controller is genuine or not. I have had considerable experience buying DS3s online and can say with confidence that the only place you are going to get legit ones are from Japan.
@@Arethien On Amazon US you search for dualshock 3 'Japan import'. There will be new pieces which are expensive and used ones from the same seller with a much lower price.
That later gold ps3 controller i also purchased one of a while back and I was for a long while convinced genuine. I was really late to ps3 so have nothing to think otherwise. They work ok for me.
The berry-colored ps4 controller also used different square, circle, triangle buttons. If you look closely they are much larger than original controllers.
I got a fake PS3 controller in 2018 similar to those "official ones" but without the Sony text and a P3 on the home button (needed a controller and *really* low on money) and while it's nowhere near as good as official ones, it still holds up. It has syncing issues and the L2 button is just now becoming unresponsive. But after nearly two years it's still solid and outside of the L2 button. I'd still recommend trying to save up and getting official controllers, but don't entirely count out the knockoffs, it's a gamble absolutely but if it pays off, you got a solid controller that can at least do the job for cheap. As long as you don't rage at games and start beating on the controller (probably why the L2 trigger stopped working for me...) it still delivers the nice experience if you can handle the times the controller doesn't properly sync up, stalls out and you have to try again. They're made cheap, but you shouldn't bury them because of it, they can be actually decent
I bought the golden cheap ps3 controller in the beginning like in 2013 and I used it so much and it didn't break except the joystick leather which wore out which has chance of happening on like every controller

MxCP11 same until you’d drop it then the plastic would shatter
@@hollandbulky8808 I had it to, it was solid and I dropped it a few times and it wasn' t even scratched
I got a fake PS3 controller in 2018 similar to those "official ones" but without the Sony text and a P3 on the home button (needed a controller and *really* low on money) and while it's nowhere near as good as official ones, it still holds up. It has syncing issues and the L2 button is just now becoming unresponsive. But after nearly two years it's still solid and outside of the L2 button. I'd still recommend trying to save up and getting official controllers, but don't entirely count out the knockoffs, it's a gamble absolutely but if it pays off, you got a solid controller that can at least do the job for cheap. As long as you don't rage at games and start beating on the controller (probably why the L2 trigger stopped working for me...) it still delivers the nice experience if you can handle the times the controller doesn't properly sync up, stalls out and you have to try again. They're made cheap, but you shouldn't bury them because of it, they can be actually decent

Keep doing the good work mate! :)
I buy them and sell them for more lol scammer life will bite me in the ass later in life
Glad I went to the Black Friday sale at Walmart. I got 2 Dualshock 4 controllers for $39 each.
Damn that's a good price.
Mom: do you want to like play?
Me: "Okay the fuck"
Sister: bro, it's doubleshock!
I had that first PS3 controller you pulled out used it in the MW3 days! Good times!
Oh my god i had that same blue glow ps3 controller except it was green! And that bit of chunk hitting around loose in it too!
I have a O.E.M Berry blue DualShock4. And I get that exact rattle in my standard DualShock4 witch came with my PS4
Something i've noticed with fake ds3 controllers is that the analog sticks seem to only register 8 directions, with 3 degrees of sensitivity
I bought the golden cheap ps3 controller in the beginning like in 2013 and I used it so much and it didn't break except the joystick leather which wore out which has chance of happening on like every controller
