Title: Cheap construction
Review: The light grey PS1 Dual Shock differs in construction from the earlier dark grey (first gen) Dual Shock. These light grey versions have VERY stiff directional pads that make pushing diagonals nearly impossible. The D-pad will click and make noises like a button rather than moving smoothly between presses. For example, if you push Up and Right at the same time, the controller will only register one or the other. Your character in the game will not move in both directions at once, ie diagonally. This isn't an issue if you plan on using the controller for the analogue sticks only, but if you're playing a 2D game or older game that requires the D-pad, you will be in for trouble. Buy a third-party controller or a PS2 Dual Shock instead.
