the controllers work (except for the PS1 dual shock, since the rumbling effect moves the chips in the controller around), but its the systems (especially PS2) which are pure crap. I have gone through 4 PS2's since the day the system came out. And all of them have "disc read errors" due to the DVD reader being moved out of place.

I ahven't ever had a problem with a PS1 or PS2. I know of my friend who had trouble with his Xbox, but that's about it.

The original PS1 controller (WITHOUT dualshock) > All game controllers ever.

Just about any controller is better than that n64 one... But I guess if you have 3 hands it works out perfectly for you.

Yup. In the time it takes to beat one of their 2 hour games, you would need to replace your PS2 thirteen times because of disc read errors and the like.
