@ Grouch
You might have to spend at least $50 to get something ok.

Those games aren't small and can't be stripped down much.

My Hori cost less than $50au but shipping was free, as I said I suspect they might be worth more now.
But still, if you have a dig around maybe there's a US supplier. They come in blue and black (I have the latter).
Just remember it doesn't have motion or rumble and it's wired.

I'll check ebay and see if I can find them there. rumble isn't an issue my current one doesn't have it and I don't even notice.

I'm just looking on ebay au now, it seems there is red colour too but I don't remember that when I got mine.

Cheapest I can see for me is just under $70au from Japan.
Local sellers have them here for $85 or more.

Obviously I can't see US domestic only listings using my ebay but here's a US seller as an example

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Hori-Pad...4AAOSwPCVX22Hs

Looks like $50us

I don't like the look of the fps assault pad it looks uncomfortable for me.

When using ebay search input:
hori pad fps plus

Don't worry about adding ps3 or ps4. Change results to worldwide and obviously price + postage cheapest.
Then just scroll through until you see US sellers. I found one very quickly I'd be surprised if you can't find any.

it's just not my style controller.

Ebay should auto-convert all prices to US.

Here it auto converts to aud but I can see the US price for US sellers.
Why would the rest of the world want to see US prices? :pwacko:

Well you'll have to settle for a used genuine DS3, taking your chances if it's shipped to you.
Or get another cheap controller like you have, the wireless ones aren't any better.

There are other options besides Hori pad fps plus but it'll cost more than $50.

If you aren't familiar with the game then maybe it would be annoying :shrug: idk. There's no way around the issue though, besides just simply hardly ever using your flashlight, and if you do turn it off quickly.

Once of the Uncharted games has some balance beam gymnastics crap iirc. :pwacko:

I think it depends on how the seller listed it.

You definitely should. It's one of the franchises that defined the PS3.

Buying them is probably easier honestly. $5 a game max.

that's why I'm looking around. that nyko I looked has a few bad reviews on another site I seen them listed on. the price difference between a used ds3 and a new clone is $15-$20.

I don't remember anything in the original trilogy :thot: Maybe there were motion controls but they should've been patched as optional.

The clones are shit, it's worth the extra cost for a good controller.

Did you get a system without a controller? I didn't exactly back read everything. :pwacko:

I remember a sequence or two. It's been awhile since I ran through them though.

@ Grouch

Maybe Hori pad 3 is an option?
Controls layout is more like traditional Sony. It should be cheaper than fps plus.

Looks like lots of Hori options for PS3 for $30 or less shipped. But from Japan so it will take awhile. Should be cheaper than a legit DS3 though.

Ah ok, yeah Drake's Fortune has motion controls that don't have alt controls. Remastered version is patched but maybe they didn't bother doing the original.
Not having alt controls is the dumbest thing ever.

There seem to be quite a few hori pad 3 variants, some are wireless and some aren't. They all look like sony layout, the PS3 versions anyway.

Pad 3 Gem might be ok too (if you don't mind it being lit up :wacko: ) but you'll need to look into the specs of all these.
Prices don't seem stupid anyway.

I don't remember motion crap in GA. I do remember lots and lots of swiping for the boss 'fights'.
