So you walk into a store, give the sticks and Indian rub burn for several mins and then complain that they are garbage? Wow.. only on the internet.

Ok, now let me explain to you what you did. The rubber on the DS4 sticks are a coating, when you rubbed on the sticks for half an hour you heated that rubber up which caused it to separate and break down. It's a natural rubber, it's not something that you'd use on a car tire, but should hold up to above average use. What you did wasn't even above average use. You tried to break them and you succeed congrats!

+1. I played around with the demo unit at my store for a while. I wasn't silly enought to think, "Hm... I think maybe some day I will rub it extensively and create friction so let's see how it holds up." However, from holding the unit and using it the why I, and really any normal gamer, would normally do then I can comfortably say the controller is a solid piece of hardware.
