Personally I'd stick to the Sony pads.... I know they're more expensive but the quality is vastly superior to the 3rd party ones.

Depends on what type of 'cordless' you mean.

If you mean Infra Red, then I wouldn't bother. I've never had any IR stuff for the PS, but I have used IR peripherals on other machines (CDTV, PC etc.), and they're not like your average TV remote that works from any angle.

You usually have to keep them pointed almost exactly at the receiver, and that's not a good thing when a game gets a bit frantic.

If you're talking 'radio control', then they should be better, with next to no lag, but I've never used any.

Also, consider the price of batteries, and the fact that you run the risk of your controller dying on you at a crucial part of the game! :-)

Anyone tried cordless joypads? I quite fancy getting them but wonder if there is a slight delay compared to wired joypads.

Are you getting a multi-tap?

If not, why do you want 'another' joypad? If you're going to buy a Sony one, and there's one in with the console, why get a third?

Still, whatever your reasons, I'd buy two Sony pads.

General opinion is that there isn't really a worthy substitute to the Sony pads, so why compromise?
