Simple clue left handed people are better in using their left hand and controller layout makes a difference to most left handed people I'm pretty sure of that. 


Yeah but its just moving your thumb from one place to another. I never see why it's even an argument. Both of them are easy to get used to.

I'm left-handed and I've never had any issues with the left stick of the Dualshock. Right stick, that's another story, but that's just because generally it's used for things that require more precise movements and stick generally aren't very good for that. Either way, I've had no stick placement issues with any of the Dualshock controllers so far.



For me the 360's left anlouge stick is in the perfect place and I'm sure me being left handed has something to do with it.

Cool story.

I'm sorry but now I've seen two posts like this one in a few hours, both from MS fans posting in a thread that shows PS4 in a positive light somehow. This adds nothing to the thread. If you don't like it, explain why or just don't comment on it. "Cool story bro" or "cool story" is just spam.

what are you talking about? Sony fans only do this, they even needed to make an "positive xbox one thread". 



Christ you guys will fight over anything, can't wait for both consoles to launch and you guys start debating which console smells better. The new car smell of the PS4, or the smell of winter of the xbox one? Who will win?

They're too wildly different and high in quality for one to be better than the other, comes down to preference and nothing else.

Good luck explaining that. In this site, people consider PS4's On/Off LEDs superior.


Yea that whole preference thing is crazy

 

Wouldn't it also be crazy if people went as far as saying that the DS4 sticks were in the "wrong" place? That would be crazy



Not really because the left stick is easier to reach no matter if you are left or right handed.  At least the DS4 did one thing right by finally having inverted/concaved thumb sticks.

the PS4 certainly smells better. see the thing is its a combination of power, electricity and ram that makes the Smell great. the X1 has the power brick so it just takes away from that amazing smell of strong powerfull electricity that makes console smells unique. its also known that GDDR5 smells WAAAY better then DDR3. and last but not least the PS4 GPU is about 50% more powerfull. around .5 TFLOPS. to thats .5 smelling flops better. this is FACT who ever says other wise is a ragging fanboy



There are 2 articles out there saying the DS4 is better and next thing you know this is anecdotal  data that the DS4 is better than the X1 controller.  Sometimes I wonder if people are really that hard up to crown some type of winner for something that will end up being a personal decision.

My take away from these articles is that the DS4 is a better controller than the DS3 and thats huge in my book because I am one of those people who did not care for the feel of the DS3.  

I really do not care if one feels slight better than the other as long as they both feel good.



Preference. The only thing I dont like about the xbox controllers is the analog sticks, to me it feels so much better having them next to each other.
