Funny how there is no thread about nintendo allowing the Xbox controllers or the Dualshocks on its systems. But Sony gets this nick picking crap. Also, isn't the DS4 more compatible with most PC rigs than the XB1 controllers?

This isn't about a console manufacturer not supporting other controllers, none of them do that natively ovbviously. As far as I can tell sony is the only one that has gone above and beyond to actively prevent the use of adapters that I very much enjoyed last gen. 

And the xbox 360 controllers are more compatible with pc's than any other controller.

I am talking about the Xbox 1 and the DS4 compatiblity with the PC. DS4 is more compatible with PC than the XBox 1's controller. Maybe until an update.
