"In A Spin Over Dual Shock"

Any got any dual shock controllers with the analoge thumbs that spin around? Its annoying, is there a way to get the thumb pad off the stick and then be able to stick it back down with super glue? Or maybe phone Sony and blag another one. So whos in a spin about dual shock controllers?

Never happened to me, but i remember someone from here phoning up Sony with the same sort of problem and blaging a new controller.

Pro evo had these problems, he phoned sony and they sent him a new pad, try giving sony a call :D

I know Pro Evo had one which he sent back with his faulty PS2. Did he have another one that he sent back?

I think I will ring Sony up. And get a free controller, how much is it per min for the phone call?

I can't remember the number, but i think its an 0870 number, not sure though, sorry

I know the number, just want to know if its one of those £1 a min ones or whether its a nice respectiable price like 2p a min.

i have rang before and its not expensive :-)

I think I must be one of the only people that, by default, uses the D-pad instead of the stick - with the exception of games like Half-Life and Red-Faction..... and punching people on SSX Tricky that is!

Does anyone else find the stick(s) a little too fiddly for normal games like Pro Evo, or THPS3? Also, is me not using the stick holding me back from getting top scores do you think?!

I have a controller tht when you push the right stick forward it clicks, so I rang sony and got through pretty quick and I had a second controller a week later (FOC).

They will ask you for the serial number of you console and when you bought it.
