Great Trigger Grips

I bought this item only for the trigger grips. They are much more comfortable then the regular triggers. I always found the triggers on the sixaxis/dualshock3 controller to be too small and uncomfortable. Especially for racing games which require more accuracy while pushing down for braking and accelerating. With these on, it's like a whole new controller. The "armor" that comes with the grips is pretty useless. The only service i think it provides is that while you have the armor on, you won't accidently push the start/select/PS button.

Must buy for PS3 owners

The armor is completely worthless, it doesn't even fit right (it falls off if you hold the controller upside down), and is a lame excuse for charging $10 for two little pieces of plastic. Besides, what kind of armor covers 20% of what it's supposed to be protecting? The triggers however, are absolutely essential for the DualShock controller. I could never go back to not using them. They add length to the controller so it no longer feels like it was built for a 10 year old's hands (still not as comfortable as the 360 controller but vastly improved). They are snug and don't fall off during intense gaming. Most importantly of course, they keep your fingers from slipping off the bottom. Couple these with a rubber skin you can find on Amazon or at Gamestop, and the DualShock 3 is significantly more comfortable. I will buy them for all of my controllers going forward or until Sony figures out how bad their "trigger" design is.

Great

Really not much to say. The triggers are the best accessory for your ps3 controller. The control and grip are perfect for all types of games...especially FPS (first person shooters) and racing games.

Buttons work great on controller for triggers. I didn't need the silver center plate. I am not really sure why the set comes with that.

awsome but

The actual center "armor" piece is hideous and makes accessing the start and select buttons a chore. However, the triggers are perfect and really fix what I believe is the one thing wrong with the Playstation 3 controller. Worth $10 in my opinion.

Triggers are awesome, armor eh not so much.

The triggers are amazing work just like I wanted them to. But the armor keeps my controllers from fitting in their charging station, plus they make it very hard to hit the PS, Start, and Select if you have large fingers.

But the triggers are worth the price alone, if you happen to use/like the armor well then that's just a bonus.

Armor pointless but trigger grips are helpful

I've never been a huge fan of the ps3 controller since the 360 one came out and it doesn't seem like sony cares to change their design at all except make the L2 and R2 different. The armor is kind of cool but i wouldn't this for that and all though $10 is a lot for two pieces of plastic its worth it for one controller.

triggers are cool..... cover is a waste!

Let's get the bad out of the way - If you're buying this product for the controller armor (I dont know of anyone that is), dont waste your time. It doesnt fit either of my PS3 controllers (one is a dualshock and the other is a standarard sixaxis).

On to the good - The triggers are easy to apply and are very sturdy. When I first opened the package and looked at them, I didnt think they'd stay fastened under gameplay but I was wrong..... they're not going anywhere, but can be removed if needed. The only negative I have with them is that I get a bit of finger fatigue after playing for while. It seems that the triggers protrude a bit further away from the controller than the Xbox 360's triggers. So while it's a similar feel, it's not exactly the same, but an improvement none the less.

I recommend the trigger portion of the Armor package to anyone looking for better trigger control or to get a feel similar to the 360's triggers. For me, this was worth the price. As for the controller armor that didnt fit, I threw it directly into the aluminum recycle bin. ;-)

A+!

I purchased because i was having problems keeping grip on the L2 and R2 buttons due to my large hands.

This is how the controller should have come! It is 10x easier to use.

I would definitely recommend this product to ANYONE who has a ps3 controller, regardless of hand size. It just makes it so much more comfortable to use!
