PS3 controller: Official Six Axis v Unofficial

[MasterBlaster76]

Have any of you got this controller:

It's an unofficial PS3 controller, is it as good as the unofficial one or is it better to go with the proper sixaxis PS3 controller? It's expensive, ?35 for a controller is bloody stupid, the other one costs ?10 less.

I've not got that, but I had an unofficial one for the PS2, the analogue stick broke and it generally wore down. I'd say its better to go for the official controller, however, if you are not in need of it straight away, you might be better waiting until the Dualshock 3 comes out, as its got vibration.

If you need it quickly, this deal might be useful, if you want another game with it:

Thanks for your help. I don't care about vibration, it's bad for your arms long term anyway, so I'll probably go for the official controller, although that offer looks good I'll have to check it out.
