Limited edition Destiny 2 Dualshock 4 releasing alongside console bundles

Eww. It looks tacky, like $0.25 stickers were slapped on.
The Destiny TTK LE console still looks amazing until this day.

Looks gaudy and super cheap. Almost looks like zero thought and design went into this.

Also, not being sold in UK, Poland and Russia. Sounds like a political statement.

Oh look. Another awful looking PS4 controller. Sony are so far behind MS in this field. Some of the colour schemes for XB1 controllers this gen have been utterly gorgeous. Case in point:

There are lots more, but these two tone ones are stunning in my opinion. Then you add in design lab, which not only lets you fully customise the colours but also add metal triggers and super comfy rubber grips, and you've got a far more grown up, well designed set of hardware.

PS4 controllers look like toys by comparison. Nintendo controllers do too, but at least the Switch controllers are seriously vibrant and have interesting, different colour schemes (see, Splatoon 2 pro controller and the gorgeous varieties of neon joycon). Dual Shock 4s just look like cheap toys unless you go for the black ones in my opinion.

Appreciate the time, care, love and attention that went into crafting this wonderful special edition controller.

Pad looks like my nan was let loose armed with a hobbycraft bumper pack of sticky embellishments.

This controller is an actual representation of how much work Bungie put into Destiny 2.

I think the controller is trash and no effort was put into this particularly controller (which is prob more Sony's fault)

but this kinda of statment is unfair. Over 1000 people worked/are working on Destiny 2

They must have been up all fucking night coming up with that design. All got pissed and had a sing song... Jeepers.
 
Well, the big news here is hardly the pad, it's how hard Sony is pushing the bundles this year, at least in Europe. That's 5 Destiny bundles after 7 FIFA 18 bundles, and we have yet to see what they are cooking with Call of Duty and Star Wars.
 
I'm usually one to drop dough on anything from Bungie, and this is such an afterthought that it's not even worth my time. To hell with it.

Yeah, 12 PS4 bundles announced for the EU market already, insane. Like you say more will be coming for CoD and Battlefront, but I believe GT Sport will get some too. Then there's the possibility for a family friendly Crash/Knack 2 bundle.

I was hoping that it'd have a similar look to the Destiny 1 PS4.

Could have looked amazing. Instead it looks lazy.

That's the TTK design. Destiny 1 also launched with a plain glacier white design and I don't think it's lazy at all. It's much nicer looking than the jet black model.

Looks like shit.

Titanfall Xbone controller is best limited edition game-based controller

Yeah, I still really like mine. Although I swapped the back half with the standard one that came with my Rift so it has a headphone jack and better shoulder buttons now.

I've always thought of the Lunar controller as the "unofficial Destiny Xbone controller." Wish they'd make something classy like that without the branding for PS4, too. Maybe with the rubber grips and monochrome buttons.

My mistake. What I meant was having a similar design of the TTK console and applying it to the controller.
