Forums - Sony - The PS4 controller works with the PS3 (for most games)

The Fury said:

Only need 1 controller for 2 consoles? Time to look for some internet deals and trade in my crappy on the way out DS3s.

I would definitely keep a DS3 just in case. It would be nice if they gave a proper compatibility update to make up for the lack of backwards compatibility, especially with the number of games that I want that aren't coming to next-gen

Yeah it works well played 3 matched of TLOU, Options and Share double as start and select, altho are harder to press which i guess is expected so you dont press them when using the touchpad.

The PS button doesnt work so you still need a PS3 pad to quit the game.

A much better controller for playing TLOU with, wish i had looked to see if i could of rebound the shooting keys to the triggers, as they now feel the more natural position for your fingers, rather than the l1r1 buttons from the DS3



Whats the point of using the ps4 controller?
