25%??? Where did you get that number? I just pulled a random number out of my hat and it showed about 67%

He is reviewing the hardware itself, not "development" or something even more vague than that.

Even if that 25% number was real, what's stopping him from belonging to that group?

The development referance is to his earlier stuff.   I realize he may be one of those that likes the DS4 better.  He did say something about his hands.

The numbers come from people a I know that have tried both.  It might actually be closer to 20%, but it's an opinion thing.  And one absoutly hates Microsoft or Xbox (I forget which one, perhapse both)  with the heat of 10,000 angry hornets on the sun, and he said it caused him great pain to admit it, but that he thought the Xbox One controller was the best. 

Plus a few, like 10% like the WiiU best.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

I am deeply excited to try both controllers! But, lets me honest here...I use a wheel more than anything else. Oh, and someone earlier mentioned using a controller for a racing sm...I can't do it anymore. If I can't use my wheel I play something else.

Wow, someone that spends the last several months campaigning against the Xbox One, Kinect and Microsoft like the PS one better. Colour me not surprised.

He hasn't campaigned against the xbone or microsoft at all. Quite the opposite, he's made videos in support of them since the reveal.

You should check your facts before you make comments.

I did and watched them and stand by my statement.  I’ve seen him before.

He is a reviewer that seems to know little of innovation, design or development.  He is one of those bad complainers that harassed Microsoft needlessly and relentlessly.  Then ends his long winded statements with ‘well it might be ok’ which sort of dismisses everything.

He post titles that are controversial to get attention more than good feedback.  Hits sell, and I guess that is what he is trying to do.  He will probably be back in Microsoft’s camp in another video or two.  Notice how he glossed over haptic feedback?  Soon he will say how much he loves it.

He is entitled to his opinion, and in my experience about 25% of gamers, giver or take, who have tried both like the DS4’s better.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion.  But when something smells fishy, there often are a few hidden fish.

Yah and your numbers are believable because you have such a history of not favoring Xbox 



It's really interesting that Blunty prefers the DS4 over the X1 controller even though his favorite controller this gen was the 360's. Another thing that should be mentioned is that the alignment of the X1 controller's bumpers and triggers is awkward, as shown in this vid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKBZRfURUaQ). On the 360 controller, there is a gap between the bumpers and triggers. However, they're put "together" on the X1 controller. That kind of design makes the controller worse because I'd like the bumpers and triggers to be distinct.

Thats great. Your aloud your opinon. But the general concesses is the 360 controller is superior to the ps3 controller. In every way apart from the Dpad.

"Where do you go when you've already produced the best? That must have been the problem facing Microsoft when it came to designing a new controller for the Xbox One.

All but the most stalwart PlayStation fans would admit that the 360 controller is more ergonomic, more responsive and more accurate than the still very usable Dual Shock 3, and it's no surprise that it's become the choice of controller for most PC users too. When Nintendo came to design the Pro controller for Wii U, it was Microsoft's controller that it took its inspiration from."

And many of the people who said 360 controller > DS3 are now saying DS4 > Xbox One Controller

It's really opinion. Like debating which color is better Green or Blue

Although I did find your earlier post about the Wheel interesting.

I used the DS3 for GT5 for a while and didn't think getting the Wheel would add much if anything to my experience. But I bought one and now... can't play without it. If for some reason I can't use the Wheel, I won't play GT5. I'll play something else. No going back for me lol

The only thing that smells fishy here is you.

It's not hard to check the videos he has put out in the last few months to see that he hasn't "harassed microsoft needlessly and relentlessly" or at all for that matter. Who are you trying to fool? 

You disagree with him, that's fine, it's really not a big deal. It's just pathetic though that you find it necessary to lie and make shit up over video game consoles. 

Why should anybody take you seriously?

Believe what you want, but take a quick look at his video:

XBOX ONE? Xbox DONE. - The Griffin Family responds to Microshaf

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmIhF0-kYYE

He misleads about spying and advacates sucide.  Sucide over an Xbox One how more anti Microsoft could one get?

From more recent interviews where the rumble triggers on Xbox One have been now put into game demos like Forza 5, it adds amazing feedback just not possible without. I fear once ive tried the rumble features with games like Forza 5 where you get feedback under braking ( ABS, Traction ) I wont be able to play without.


you've played your whole life without rumble triggers-I'm pretty sure you will still be able to do so in the future.

 

btw-before they implement something real important like force feedbag analog sticks (comparable to steering wheels)we won't really miss it


I played 10 years without rumble and analogs, I don't want to miss them.

I can't see you playing Forza with a controller... sorry but you are saying something that won't be used for sim racing fans.


You don't have the right to speak for all of them :) The feature is still something I have to try.

The Griffin video was quite bland, but I'd like to nominate "advacake" for typo of the week!!!
