Don't buy two!!
By W. Herman
I bought two of these for the PS3 (Ken & Ryu) so my girlfriend and I could play each other, but only one will work at a time. The controller itself works great! When I have both dongles in the PS3, it will not connect to both controllers. Only one seems to work at a time. I've e-mailed MadCatz twice with no response. This kinda bums me out that we can't play each other, but oh well.Again, the controller itself works great with the game. It didn't work so well with Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix, but with SF4, it's perfect. Also, I brought my PS3 to a friends house and for whatever reason, it would not connect at all. I spent about an hour turning everything off and on and reversing the order and nothing. When I got home, it worked fine....go figure. And I had the correct dongle with me.So if you just get one, it'll work super, but two for the PS3 is a waste of money.

Stopped working after two weeks - buyer beware!
By Jhooud
If Madcatz would've spent more time with quality control, this gamepad would be an absolute must-buy for Street Fighter fans. The button layout is perfect, and the d-pad is far easier to use than the stock PS3 controller's pad. Unfortunately, after two weeks of use, the buttons started to produce either incorrect responses or no response at all. Kicks wouldn't work, and punches be the wrong strength (light would produce medium and so forth). The d-pad began to combine moves - pressing up and forward would produce a jump AND a kick. While the price was appealing, the lack of quality is very disappointing.

Best controller for fighting games
By PSony
+Excellent circular floating dpad; feels even mushier than the Saturn pad. I can do all moves with ease. I've heard of other people having problems with the diagonals but mine works perfectly. Easily the best dpad for fighters.+Face buttons are big, flat, doesn't protrude much, and are effortless to press. This is helpful if you press the buttons palm-down like on an arcade stick.+2 turbo speeds for each button. Useful for characters with moves where you rapidly mash the button.+Has a switch to toggle the dpad so it can act as the left analog stick/right analog stick/dpad on a PS3 controller, so it will work for more than just fighting games.+Wireless and doesn't lag. Uses 2 AA batteries. I suggest getting 4 rechargeable AA batteries and a recharger so you can still play while 2 of the batteries are charging.+Feels very solid and the grip is comfortable. Weighs about the same as a DualShock3.-As of this date, does not work with PS2 games (wireless receiver doesn't turn on when PS3 is in PS2 hardware mode). Hopefully Sony will release a firmware update to fix this. It does work with PS1 games.-There was a minor problem I encountered on the first day of using it. The controller kept rapidly pressing the down direction on the dpad. I just paused the game, pressed the dpad a few times, and the problem went away. This only happened twice on the first day of using it, and there are no problems on the third day now.This would be the best fighting controller I've ever used if it can work on PS2 games. I prefer it over my Saturn usb pad (PS3/PC) and the Nubytech Street Fighter 15th pad (PS2).EDIT: After using it for 4 weeks now, it is still working and I still haven't had to change the batteries. I haven't encountered the dpad problem after the first day. Highly recommended, but don't pay those outrageous $80-100 prices.
