Two types of Madcatz Wireless Controllers
Madcatz MicroCon Wireless Controller (PS2)
There are intially 2 types of controller, both Madcatz.
One controller uses three AAA batteries is slightly bigger in size and the plug-in unit has a short wire extention connecting to a remote receiver.
The other controller uses two AAA batteries, has rubber grips each side of controller and a one piece plug-in unit in which receiver is inbuilt (much better idea).
Batteries last a long time (so remember to switch controller "OFF" when finished.
Neither unit has a vibration facility, unlike other controllers.
You need to search thoroughly to locate on Amazon, both unit types.
Dodgy controller
I bought this controller for a brand new PS2 and tried to play it with Pirates of the Caribbean. Guess what after 20 minutes it stopped working. The left control joystick refused to let me go left. I plugged in the wired controller and all was fine. Off to the shops now to take it back and demand petrol money also. Do not buy this product.
Great Handy little Thing.
I got this controller about 2 weeks ago so I could play my playstation 2 from a distance.This is a great controller but not perfect it lets me play from a any distance (within reason) and it makes my coison jelous when hes playing with wires and I'm not.
The controller itself looks nice but mein looks nothing like the picture on the web site.It has a nice black design and has grips on each side of the controller.Unlike the review below the start and select buttons are easy to press.The controller size is smaller than the offical sony controller so this means the directional buttons and the other buttons are smaller as well.
The controller is very easy to use in the box you get a recever that you plug into the playstaions controller socket then you put 3x AAA batries in turn the controller on and away you go.I have rechargeble battries and they have lasted for 2 weeks and still going.
In summary This is a great price for what you get so if you want a basic wireless controller buy this.
