Forums - Gaming - The PS4 Controller Is The Definitive Controller For Gen8?

I like that they made analogues concave at last. Luckily they are keeping symmetric analogs, to me that's a must. Never had any problems with R2/L2 though

What a moron, calling next gen "Gen4". It's the 8th. Gaming didn't start on the N64/PS1.



Even though I prefer ps4 over xbox one I like xbox one controller. I dont want any any gimmicks (Six axis, light bar, touch pad, speaker etc) in my controller. Thats why I like xbox one controller. I wish dualshock 4 didnt had any gimmicks.



Controller comfort is a personal preference. There's no point saying one is definitely better than the other.

IMO the 360 controller is more comfortable than the PS3 controller but everyone has their own opinions.

There's no point arguing over them.

The dualshock was in desperate, desperate need of an upgrade, and it looks like Sony have finally delivered. (A gen too late for me, but better late than never)

Light bar is a nice touch and can ad ambient light to gun fire, or let you know when you're being hit. The touch pad also acts as a button, how can an extra button can be a gimmick? The speaker is going to add nice sound effects outside of the normal game. Six axis is cool in its own way but most of its uses are for gimmicks, so you do have one there. But it's pretty harmless.



I suppose this is an appropriate place for this.

DS4 is bigger than DS3 mainly due to fitting a decent size touch pad on.



The XB1 controller is barely different than the 360 controller. The only reason the 360 controller is different than the XBox controller is because that beast was designed for cave trolls. Only Nintendo innovates their UI with every generation. No one else really cares.

So a gen4 controller in gen 8? It still works, doesn't it?



Very nice. Everyone is complementing the new controller.
