The responsiveness between this controller and the PS2 is impeccable. Many PS2 games require extremely precise control, and the Cordless Action Controller worked every bit as well as a standard PS2 controller in this regard. Where a lesser wireless controller would have made acceleration difficult in Gran Turismo 4, pressing the button down slightly to head into a curve at a lower speed was just as easy as it is with Sony's controller. Likewise, Metal Gear Solid 3 requires analog movement of your character, Snake, and pressure-sensitive actions such as pointing your weapon without firing to hold an enemy hostage, was simple to pull off.. Really, the only area where the controller falls a little short is in the force feedback department--its rumble just can't match that of Sony's wired controller, so Snake's heartbeat when he hides from enemies just doesn't thump all that hard in your hands. But that's only a minor drawback.
Bottom line: if you're not a stickler for the rumble feature, the Logitech Cordless Action Controller for PS2 is by far the best option for PlayStation 2 gamers. The extra $15 is well worth the wireless freedom.
