(More customer reviews)Accuracy in shooters is my benchmark for controllers. I've bought many products to try and make the PS3 have a usable and accurate controller that is comfortable in my hands (I'm 6 feet tall, not that I have particularly large hands); the best combo for me is to use these and a silicone controller cover on the dualshock 3, using only my index fingers on the bumpers and triggers (no 4 finger configs). These (and I assume the legendaries) excel where I had issues with the FPS freeks because the Dualshock 3 tends to creep up into the palm of my hand and I end up pressing on the side of the FPS freeks rather than let my thumbs sit IN the cups as they were designed. With these I can crank up the sensitivity much more and my thumb settles easier and stays on the tip of the analog more consistently. I also find it easier to use them in non-shooters as well. I've also finally been able to headshot more consistently and feel that I am one large step closer to mouse-level controls on a console (it's a personal dream you may share). As a side note, I've had so many problems with controllers this gen that I'm considering going over to Xbox next gen just for the controller. I've scrapped 3 3rd party controllers including the Logitech (incredibly stiff triggers that I tried to modify and gave up on), the Dreamgear shadow (poor analogs), and the NYKO zero (trigger springs started sticking badly). Sadly, there are no decent third party controllers and this with a silicone cover seems to be the best bet.
I'm rating this a 4 and not a 5 for one simple reason: softer silicone analog covers like grip-it react less to sweat and really stick to your thumb whereas these are harder and are slightly slicker. The grip-it's don't fit well on these because they are too small.
