there are no flaws in this controller its great for tiger woods because you can adjust the sensetivity so you have better control of the backswing, oops that was a secret tip


4 out of 5 stars Playstation 3 HORI PAD 3 Turbo Wireless   October 13, 2008
This is a great Gampad that works with the PS3 and the PC. This gamepad has the Turbo function that is easily enabled or disabled per button rather than a univrsal clear etc. The only complaint I have is it's really not made for a person with big hands, but that can be said for most of them. It's definitely worth the buy though.


4 out of 5 stars (PS3) Hori Pad 3 Turbo Wireless ideal for Oblivion   September 2, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Having very mild carpal tunnel, I always look for a usable turbo (auto fire) function on controllers to reduce the need for thousands of button presses per gaming session. Not only is this the ONLY PS3 controller (as of 9/2/08) to have this function, it is the only controller with a variable rate turbo function. Some games treat a very high rate of fire the same as the button held continuously, so this is crucial. Further, the turbo can be "inverted" to be always on until you push the button. If you are leveling a character up, and need to, for example, cast a spell repeatedly, continuous auto-fire allows for hands free leveling up while you watch TV.

Downsides: This pad triggers yet ANOTHER Oblivion bug -- full left (270 degrees) on the left joystick doesn't work. Slightly up (271 degrees)or down (269 deg) work fine. (Another wireless controller, from a different manufacturer, behaved the same way. Both controllers work just fine with the PS3 web browser -- full left moves the pointer left.

The two switches for joystick sensitivity and turbo rate are positioned exactly where the start and pause buttons would normally be, with those two buttons moved down against the bases of the joysticks, where they are slightly harder to hit. The switches and buttons should be reversed, should this product ever be re-engineered.



5 out of 5 stars Love It   September 2, 2008
I read various reviews about this controller. Some good some bad. Still I purchased it on recommendation from another online player.

I only play Tiger Woods Golf (08 & 09) with it, so my experience is limited to this franchise only.

This was purchased mainly for the Turbo function, however I can get 105% - 118% by using tap.

Virtually don't have to worry about Hook or Slice.

This controller may not work as well in other games, but my experience in Tiger has been great!

Wish I had purchased it sooner.

Turbo feature is really nice, but the controler body is way too big and the joystick are way way way too small after of couple of games my hands were bothering me. Control feels sloppy. I went back to the PS3 orginial controler.
