I haven't had much luck with PS3 controllers. I'm on my third one, and this one and the previous one have suddenly stopped working, and I've had to either unplug the controller and plug it back in, or use the paper clip trick to get them to work. And my current controller keeps saying "The battery for your controller is low", even though the charger is always plugged in. Do I just have bad luck, or are PS3 controllers just not that well-made?
