Video Game Reviews of Logitech NetPlay Controller (Sony Playstation 1 & 2)
Customer Review: Do not buy this controller. I can't believe they are still selling this.
Summary: 1 Stars
I have purchased 11 of these controllers and only 3 worked. The rest did not work out of the box. The ones that worked wore out way too fast. The reason I keep trying is I really need one to play final fantasy xi. It is so much easier to play with one of these controllers. However they have buttons that are stuck on or that wont respond when I get them. I have contacted logitech and they have given me no support. There are no new ones. Any one you buy even if new in the box, has sat on a shelf for a long time. I believe this is why they dont work. I have had many many playstation controllers that work fine and take a lot more abuse than these netplay. They never have a stuck dpad or a stuck button.
It is very annoying that no one makes these controllers anymore.
Don't buy this. It's been sitting in some warehouse for years by now.
Customer Review: They're nice. . . while they're functional. . .

I am an avid player of Final Fantasy XI, and this keyboard/controller is a very convenient tool. The keyboard works quite well, the controller part on the other hand. . .
I have had to replace three of these for the same reason; the analog sticks shut themselves off somehow, then you have to go and unplug and replug the controller cord in to fix the problem. This can be very bad when auto-running in Valkurm Dunes or any other dangerous area. >.>; That, and sometimes the analog sticks make you turn around and walk backward for no apparent reason, and it's hard to stop. I don't know how this happens to every one of my controllers, I am very gentle with them! >.< I like these while the controller is working properly, but I do not like being forced to replace them every 6-8 months for the same irritating problems. . .
Customer Review: Bad Quality Control - Good Concept
Summary: 3 Stars
I recently purchased this keyboard/controller combo and am already on the second. The first had the stuck 'O' button problem right out the box. Took it back and exchanged it for another and it too had the stuck 'O' button. I decided that at the price I paid and the fact that I like the keyboard part that I would keep it. I removed the 20 screws on the rear of the controller and popped the 'O' button back in place. Now it works fine. The analog sticks are very slippery to the thumbs - there are no rubber material to supply grip like on the normal PS2 controller. This is a nuisance and so I don't use the controller.
I would recommend that if you're looking for a decent keyboard and you find this one on sale - get it. Just look at the controller as a bonus item.
Customer Review: Great performance, poor quality
Summary: 3 Stars
This Keyboard/Controller can't be beat when it come to ease of use and comfort. However this is my fourth one I have had to buy in three years due to the same flaw every time. The left Directional control keeps giving out in the X axis and makes the system believe you are always holding down, Until the plastic parts inside along the X axis break and you are no longer able to move fowards or backwards only left and right rendering the unit unusable. I am buying a fourth today since mine just gave out and I play FFXI, and I will proablly buy another in a year or so because there is nothing else out there like this and it's a nessecity if your playing a game that requires a combonation keyboard and controller. Hope this helps.Customer Review: Great idea, but quality may warrant a class action suit ?!?

Best buy had a stack of these at a great price - so I picked one up before reading the other reviews here. I was slightly suspicious, because the tape on the boxes was broken, but none of them had a "returned product" label. Alas, the buttons stick (and somehow deleted my Star Wars Battlefront profile from my memory card!) and the d-pad doesn't work very well. It's amazing to me that this many people could have the same problem with a product from a company like Logitech! I guess this is why the price was so much lower at BB and is why I won't waste my gas money driving back to the store to return it.
