Forums - Sony Discussion - Ps4 controller to include LCD touchscreen, biometric sensors?

I hope this rumor is false. Vita can already function as a controller, and I also hate having to look at two different screens to play a single game.

So reading some of the comments suddenly a smaller LCD screen than the WiiU gamepad is a cool idea?

It has a Sony stamp on it. So, it's cool.


As if it was ever not cool to have a screen on a controller in the first place. ¬_¬

This controller sounds similar to something else. I can't put my finger on it...

As a Sony enthusiast, I call bullshit on this rumour since Sony wouldn't want to be caught dead copying Nintendo WiiU remote.
Many of my peers here said so, too.



And of course Sony never copied Nintendo  before so yeah b/s...

:P I know right...maybe I was dreaming about this console called dreamcast which had a screen on it first

You know since biometric can measure blood pressure etc maybe a tiny screen in the upper middle part of the controller like in dreamcast can give the readings to us for us to see the tension level we are experiencing and so on

Seriously these biometric stuff intrigue me....I am having trouble imagining on how they could use it in games

I'm having deja-vu from when all the weird controllers starting popping up for the Wii U before ninteno did their reveal.  This seems to be heading in the same direction.  Where there is smoke there is fire!

I agree. They all looked so very ugly.
