Review: A Good Sixaxis Substitute - These controllers are some of the closest you'll get to a sixaxis for PS3. With 1st party controllers disappearing and a lot of scamming look-alikes, its rough out there. Cons: The joysticks are a little more sensitive, but not unplayable by any means. The triggers are a little.. mushy. They still work and have the proper range, they arent on/off switches like other controllers. Pros: These have a long battery life. Feels like forever compared to modern controllers. You can turn off and on the system with the PS button. A lot of 3rd party and wired controllers dont have this feature. The gyroscope works well and allows me to play games that require it. Over all I would rate 4.5, but due to a lot of lower ratings from people with high expectations, I will bump it up. Review: worst controller I've ever used: Horrible customer service :UPDATE Lowered rating - I use this on my PS3. Good controller for the most part. I love that it will wake the PS3 just like a OEM controller. Connection to the PS3 was a breeze. It does have a few problems for what I like. I would prefer it was heavier. It is VERY light. Feels very cheap. Now so far I have had zero issues with quality but still.....I would prefer it to be heavier (at least twice as heavy as it is). I also do not like the xbox shape. It looks and feels like a xbox controller only with symmetrical sticks. This may be a benefit for some but I MUCH prefer playstation controllers. I'm one of the few that likely prefer the OG ps3 sixaxis controllers over modern controllers. Now there is nothing wrong with this but the shape of the controller means I can only use it for an hour or two before I got to take a break. Again personal preference. Finally uses usb-c charging cable. Which is different from every other playstation style cable. So none of my playstation charging systems work. And with my USB ports on my PS3 all in use, and unable to use my normal PS controller charging systems. I had to set up yet another charging station for this controller. If only it used USB mini then I could have connected it with my ps3 charging setup. Again just a personal gripe, nothing really wrong with the controller. Finally my only complaint is that the sticks are too sensitive. I bought this controller because I decided I wanted to play Fallout New Vegas again. And this controller even with the game sensitivity turned all the way down is just too sensitive. Even the smallest movements on the controller moves your aim miles. Now I'm getting used to it, slowly. But it made for a week or so of pure misery. Now I know I could buy a new sixaxis and solve my problems but all too often the sixaxis controllers are counterfeit. I purchased 5 sixaxis controller right here on desertcart and had to send each and every one back as being counterfeit. From 3 different sellers.....including desertcart itself. Not their fault but still.......Until I can find a new, REAL sixaxis, this controller will work. As for the customer service. I had some questions about the controller and contacted retro fighters. I had placed my order but wanted some additional info on the controller. My only response from retro fighters was to have my order cancelled. Instead of responding to my questions, they cancelled my order and sent me a form email stating that all my data had been removed form their systems. ??? I have no idea what that was all about but I still needed the controller, so I ordered again via desertcart. Bottom line....I do recommend this controller as long as your aware of what your getting. I also HIGHLY recommend that you purchase via desertcart instead of retro fighters themselves. Then if you have any short term issues you can deal with desertcart rather then retro fighters. UPDATE: I left my original review above. However all the good things I said about the controller are no longer accurate. I have been using this controller for about 10 months now. The over sensitive sticks are no longer an issue as now the sticks barely work at all. There is absolutely NO fine control with either stick AT ALL. They are all or nothing. Example, your running along and want to turn slightly left or right, any movement of the sticks swing a MINIMUM of 90 degrees. Forget aiming, not possible. I'm into first and third person shooters mostly. Like I mentioned above, I was wanting to play Fallout New Vegas again but after about a month of playing I was no longer able to use the controller at all due to the lack of fine control. And it has steadily gotten worse and worse to the point that the controller is worthless now. I have had bad controllers in the past but this is by FAR the WORST controller I've ever had the misfortune to use. You would be FAR better off with a counterfeit sixaxis than this POS. ## Features - MAJOR COMPATIBLITY: We've got you covered!

I really didn't like how small and weak the normal PS3 controller felt, so I decided to go with this one. I will say the price was a little much for a controller but the quality is not bad at all, especially with how well built this thing is. It has every feature that the normal PS3 controller has with some other features that (I don't personally use) but you might like. Overall a very well built device. ## Frequently Bought Together - Retro Fighters Defender Bluetooth Controller Next-Gen PS3, PS4 & PC Compatible Wireless (Black) - Retro Fighters Defender Next-Gen PS1 - PS2 - PS3 - PS Classic - Switch & PC Compatible Wireless Controller, Grey - Retro Fighters Hunter XBOX Wireless Controller for XBOX/Switch/PC, Green --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/506367822-retro-fighters-defender-bluetooth-controller-next-gen-ps3-ps4-pc](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/506367822-retro-fighters-defender-bluetooth-controller-next-gen-ps3-ps4-pc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
