Plenty of hand cramp I'd guess. It's hard to tell how big it is and there's no mention of size in the specs.

Dosnt seem as well deigned as the Xbox one IMHO.

But then again that can be said for the PS3 controller in general.

If it aint broke, don't fix it.

This thing however, seems *very* oddly designed, I'd imagine it'd block the L/R1 buttons and put the controller off-ballance somewhat. I would have bound it to the bottom of the pad myself.

what a bad rip-off. im not a x fanboy though i have both but you would of thought if their going to do it do it right and put it at the bottom like the 36 and the fact their trying to ram so much in makes it even more crampt.

No socket at the bottom of the PS controllers. So only one place to put them.
