Unoffical controllers

Hi

I read ages ago how sony blocked unoffical controllers after 3.41 firmware. Just looking for a new controller as mines playing up and see that argos still sells cheap copies.

Does this mean the block is gone. Can't see argos still selling an unusable item?

Thanks

Rich

The block isn't gone; some companies have just updated/redesigned controllers to get around it. Also, some wireless controllers work by a USB dongle...so the system thinks they are wired and doesn't block them.
