I have an odd problem.

When I play games with a joypad, my hands sweat.

Profusley.

It's like I just washed my hands, and need to dry them off. It's part of my CF.

It makes it so I can't hold on to the controller and hit the buttons quickly. It's realy starting to piss me off in THPS3.

Does anyone know of any solutions? Like maybe some material I can use to make a body glove for my controller with? I'm about realy to scream my heard off and toss my dual shock through my TV screen.

I seem to remember a black rubbery coating for the N64. Was a similar one made for PSX?

Help me please!

I would recommend some talc like they use in pool halls but somehow I think that may be bad for the controller.

Maybe buy a Rosin bag from a sporting goods store?

Don't laugh, but I tried that. It's not good for the plastic. And it stays oily. <IMG SRC="smilies/confused.gif" border="0">

Hockey tape! Mummify that sucker in hockey tape and it won't go anywhere... Seriously, it's worth a try! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Is that white medical tape? I did that once with an N64 controller when I was playing the beachea level on Conker. It got really nasty after a few minutes. (the game and the tape)

I went to http://www.ebay.com and did a search for "Playstation grips" because I know I've seen them in the store-and sure enough, there's like 4 auctions that are pretty cheap for grips for playstation controllers. Hope this helps! <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
