Whoa! Is it made out of titanium?
I thought PS4 controllers where expensive... but this is ridiculous.

You may want to wait a few months to see it drop to 30$ :)

I read that it also has analog sticks made of aluminum instead of plastic. So if you have a habit of breaking your analog sticks in half, think of the money you are saving by buying one of those!  ::)

I'm still using my original Dual Analog controller for PS1 (not Dual Shock, my original Dual Analog).  So no, I don't think I'll get my money out of this.  But other, more angry people might.  ;D
