I love this, it just smacks of a Sony monopoly, oh and the irony is hilarious.
“It is possible that some counterfeit product may ignite or explode, resulting in injury or damage to the user.”
what about all the li-ion batteries that Sony sold that litteraly spontaenously combusted?
Dell, Acer, Packard Bell, HP laptops, all reported batteries exploding.

Think there a Fool to have a Fake controller,

Why have an expensive console and not have the high quality controller.

I had one (my mistake), could defo feel the difference so got an official one,

Kinda like spending 2,000 or so on a Apple Mac Pro 17 inch top spec laptop and having a shitty case to protect it

My view on it anyway LOL

I agree, get a decent controller and spend some money on getting the best.
But can you honestly trust a company that is selling a competative controller at a higher price and have a higher stake in profits?
A company that tells you that the knock-off might be dangerous, but has a track record of making dangerous goods themselves?
