Sony PS3 controllers. are they this loose?

Import a Japanese dual shock 3, there's a big difference. They're slightly looser than the Dual Shock 2 but to be honest, I actually prefer them. The Sixaxis and non-JP DS3s are shit though.

Where did you order your's from? I want to buy a ceramic white one, but play-asia doesn't ship to the EU for some fucking reason

I got mine from a shop that imported stuff, I paid £35 for it BNIB. Which isn't bad considering you'd pay that for one of the shitty european ones, made in china or whatever.

You could try ebay, I have no idea whether or not you'll be guaranteed a Japanese one or not, you could try posting on the B/S/T since we have quite a few Japenese members here, or people with strong connections to Japan.
