    Bought one today and as said above for 16.99 must be worth a look.
    Argos have them for 22.99 also have a dual wireless for 24.99.

    I got a logitech one, which at the time was the only "official" wireless controller that sony allowed, off of eBay for around €15 last year.
    Looks and feels identical to the wired sony one...the analog sticks were slightly looser but you get used to that. Not hard on batteries either.

    ended up getting the twin pack in argos for 29.99
    Pretty good, slightly different shape to the official ones, but it means i don't have cables come all the way across the room

    Got a logitech wireless action controller in the end. Its excellent. Build quality top notch (moreso even that sony's).

    Cool.

    Might i ask where you got it and how much?

    Also what's the story with those little controllers they have in Gamestop.
    Are they any good?

    Thanks

    I bought one of the lidl wireless ps2 controllers a few weeks ago. I would highly recommend them if you can get your hands on one. I was worried buying it but figured it was less than 20 quid so what the hell! But once I got home and I started using it, I was delighted with it. I have only ever used an official ps2 controller and I noticed no difference between the lidl one and the official one when I was using it. And the wireless range and all was great. Only thing is that there is no instructions with it and you have to programme the odd button now and again, but it only took me a minute to figure this out so I'm sure anybody else could figure it out even quicker. I would highly recommend the lidl wireless controller!:D
