Generic game controller for android TV

Hi all,

Can anybody recommend a generic game controller that I can purchase, that will connect via bluetooth to my 

Sony android TV model KD-43XD8099

 

Not to expensive, but something that is reasonable quality & will do the job.

 

It's to play games which can be downloaded onto the TV such as Real Racing 3, Asphalt 8 etc etc

 

Also what is an IR Blaster ? and do I need it ?

 

Many thanks
