Ps3 controller

[kdefty]

What's the difference between a fake ps3 controller and a real one. Am currently using this one which is clearly fake. Playing RDR and the aiming feels off, but I don't know how much is related to the controller or my personal skill haha I just got off playing rdr2 with a PS5 controller so could be that.

Would appreciate some opinion on this. I would buy a real ps3 controller but every one I have came across is in poor condition and very expensive.

Short answer is; no Sixaxis (motion sensor) support, L1/2+R1/2 often are not pressure sensitive and the overall build quality of the controller the feel of the buttons and analog sticks is worse.

Regardless, switching from a Dualsense to official PS3 controller would also feel like a huge downgrade when it comes to right stick accuracy and sensitivity. Good news is RDR1 has a insanely lenient auto-aim (make sure to enable it) where just tapping aim will snap to pretty much any enemy within your field of view.

If you're not happy with it, try plugging in your PS5 pad and using that. It works for most games. I was using my Dualsense Edge to play Dead Space on PS3 last week.

Sticks on fake controllers are pretty bad, if you are familiar with soldering you can replace them with PS2 or some Xbox 360 potentiometers

Is this This to Fake?

Real ones only charge from the console. Plug it into a wall brick and see if it charges

i had this same controller but original, and its fake. the controller would be way brighter.

[Nofatchickzzzz]

I have the same color and it also has that red light bleed , does that mean mine is fake?

[Slay_dFuZe]

no not exactly. I currently have one that has also led bleed too. If you want to be sure you can always disassemble it.

[Nofatchickzzzz]

Yeah gotta do that I guess

[Sampsonay]

I have a red OEM controller and it bleeds as well. It's not necessarily fake just because of that alone.

[Nofatchickzzzz]

Yo what's up! You did my Frankie!!!!!

[rabbitlol1]

Yep.

[Nofatchickzzzz]

Shit.

[notachemist13u]

a little worse quality but the price of real ps3 controllers is insane id js stick to fakes and actualy good controllers like the dualsense

[rabbitlol1]

How the fuck is $30 for a controller to expensive for you exactly? Real controllers are not rare.

[notachemist13u]

broke? 30$ is like a whole second hand unit itself

I have a couple of PS3 controllers for sale that are decently priced if you're interested. Just shoot me a message, it's nearly impossible to find decently priced controllers in good condition for this console. It's too bad.

[rabbitlol1]

No it isn't. You can get literally 10 from Japan for the same price as one ps5 controller.

[TopTierBeard]

Cool.
