MS busting it all open everywhere for a buzz and Sony show the equivalent of an ankle and have tha innanet going nuts!

That two tone makes it look cheap, like there are two different finishes on the plastic with the standard DS4 controller underneath and the new shiny on top. Sorta like a Ricer car with a big ass wing and bodykits or a Rap Car with big wheels, booming system and cannabis inhaling type behind the wheel.

On the plus side it looks super ergonomic, dpad appears great and the sticks are in the right place. Plus those new features sound really interesting.

The hypeman cometh.

Is this the best people could come up with on discord after half an hour of brainstorming?

 

[jshackles]

Did anyone else read the blog post in Mark Cerny's voice? .

 

[Bladed Thesis]

I think it is safe to say than many folks think the same as I do that the DualSense is sexy as hell and it looks a lot like the Xbox One controller. In no way is that a bad thing.

It's the best gaming controller available in my opinion.

I like the new direction on this DualSense. Hate the name.

 

[Saber]

Did they showed the back of controller? I want to see if theres any sight of backbuttons. Seems like a neat idea for me.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

I personally like it quite a bit. I think it looks very cool. Makes me that much more excited for the design of the console.

 

[Lone Wolf]

Edit: Want to add that it's not official, just a mock up. The controller in itself is very well designed but the original color scheme doesn't mesh well.

So much better in all black. The 2 tone makes it look cheap to me.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Amazing.

Sony is doing everything right with PS5.

Except the CPU clock speed, GPU CU count, GPU clock speed...

 

[The_Mike]

People kept saying they'd prefer the new PS5 over Xbox Series X, but who would have thought all it took was a knock off of the Xbox one controller to make them take the jump.

 

[Gormless Noodle]

I know its a part of vr so i get it but let me trun it off for fucks sake.

The person who appreciates it is my daughter while playing spyro.
She is only 5 but she loves to see her life displayed in colors. She know red means you get hit one more time you dead.

But yeah why keep this shit now that its not part of vr.
Come to think of it how will the vr camera sence the controller wothout the light on the back?
So much for resusing the current vr headset on ps5

Well, they did say that you could use your DS4 on the PS5 but that it would be up to developers whether they make it usable in PS5 games. So maybe they'll still let you use the OG VR headset on new VR games, if there are any.

 

[Deleted member 740922]

I'm glad SONY showed the controller first before the console, Microsoft fans need to leave SONY fans alone, today is a win for SONY.

Weird. At least you never said "M$" this time though.

Just wait until the PS5 is a tower design too and then it'll magically fit in the entertainment centers that are all too small for the Series X.

Sat Reciever and remote, Wii , Wii U (among other tech stuff), that is white, all have started to turn yellow.

Both my Wii remotes from 2006 have not changed significantly, the only thing slightly yellowed is the dpad but the clear buttons look just as white as the day there where bought, slightly scuffed and scratched but no colour change so I wouldn't worry about these buttons.

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

Welp

Thread was fun while it lasted

 

[wolywood]

So this makes it pretty much a given that the PS5 base model will be black and white, yes?

 

[Fulcizombie]

Except the CPU clock speed, GPU CU count, GPU clock speed...

And the ugly controller.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

Cool, I like it.
I would prefer a version with colored symbols

 

[ethomaz]

Except the CPU clock speed, GPU CU count, GPU clock speed...

What is wrong with these?

 

[gamechanger87]

So this makes it pretty much a given that the PS5 base model will be black and white, yes?

yes

 

[Musky_Cheese]

My thoughts too - this looks big.

 

[Tripolygon]

Shamelessly stolen

Color combinations are going to be dope af for this controller.

 

[HawarMiran]

I want one in black. I hate white stuff. It is not pleasing to my eyes

 

[itsjustJEFF]

I personally can't take an individuals opinion on feel/layout/weight serioulsy, when it comes to a picture of a physical object. Too much bias is involved in that process.

I like the "modular" look of it, like a clean Voltron or something. From a pure design point of view, i like the shit out of it. Not that biggest fan of this color way. I'm just imagining how dirty this thing will get. I'll be on the look out for an all black version. Can't wait to get hands on with this thing. I have an Astro C40 and I like the size of that thing.

 

[decisions]

Damn that thing is nice. Glad they changed things up personally.

No headphone jack? Sony better let us finally use BT headsets then.

“DualSense marks a radical departure from our previous controller offerings and captures just how strongly we feel about making a generational leap with PS5. The new controller, along with the many innovative features in PS5, will be transformative for games – continuing our mission at PlayStation to push the boundaries of play, now and in the future. To the PlayStation community, I truly want to thank you for sharing this exciting journey with us as we head toward PS5’s launch in Holiday 2020. We look forward to sharing more information about PS5, including the console design, in the coming months.”

– Jim Ryan, President & CEO, Sony Interactive Entertainment

 

[Business]

The worst thing has to be the name. Dual Shock was tacky af but after more than 20 years it was a household name. Dual Sense is ... toilet paper?

Seriously...

 

[Pantz]

Put me in the minority group. Looks hideous to me.

Don't really care how a controller looks though as long as I can turn off that light it will be fine.

edit: It's grown on me a little bit thanks to people who added colored face buttons.

 

[Marcinkowski]

beautiful desing. hope for an improved battery

 

[darkestdame]

Lol look at the amount of likes. PlayStation really does stop the world anytime they have some new info

 

[Md Ray]

Just Amazing..
just unique
Just wow

I hate DS4 now lol

This makes DS4's design look like a dinosaur. But the only thing I'm not a fan of is the two-tone color.

 

[munancho]

Whose alt is this?

Your first post in the thread read like console warrior propaganda.

And your replies read like social justice warrior styled whining making non issues into rallying cries. Run along you little scamp *ruffles hair*

And you need to tone down your snarky mode and enjoy the discussion. If you have any interest, thats it.

Hey dawg we heard your hit dog holla so we hit your dog so it can holla while it hollas. Holla!

Is this the best people could come up with on discord after half an hour of brainstorming?

Yes. Bask in the presence of its glory, peasant.

It’s not even available, lol

 

[Aion002]

Yep. Black>>>White.

 

[MasterCornholio]

Needs more boomerang.

 

[Md Ray]

They kept the track pad ? wasn't that what drained DS4 battery ?

Not trackpad. Light bar.

 

[ManaByte]

 

[Birdo]

My attempt to fix.

[Great Hair]

Could be a good match.

 

[TBiddy]

I've always found the Dualshock controllers to feel and look cheap. The DualSense looks to be a big step up. I assume they changed the name for two reasons;

1. To underline the whole "haptic" thing
2. To get away from the DualShock inheritance

 

[bronk]

Damn you dorks fight over controllers too? Go back to the console threads.

 

[Gamerguy84]

Carbon fiber wrap over the wight please.

 

[samsrt_]

This has to mean either a white PS5 or a dual-tone white and black PS5, can't wait to see what it looks like now

 

[ethomaz]

MS busting it all open everywhere for a buzz and Sony show the equivalent of an ankle and have tha innanet going nuts!

The hypeman cometh.

War? Really? Over react much?

Just stating a fact. MS have literally had their console in bits for people to see to generate hype and Sony drop an image of the controller and folks lose their minds. Nothing at all "war" related there in my mind, maybe you should clean your third eye because you're obviously projecting.

Sorry but nobody cares about Xbox.
You can go there is you wish.

 

[mrMUR_96]

Really hope there's some different colour options, not feeling that two-tone.

 

[Saber]

My attempt to fix.

Its looks worse imo lmao

 

[dolabla]

I want a translucent one. A slate gray color like the ps2 controller I had.

 

[TGO]

People kept saying they'd prefer the new PS5 over Xbox Series X, but who would have thought all it took was a knock off of the Xbox one controller to make them take the jump.

Yeah... I'm not seeing it
It does have the Vita Buttons though.

 

[Fnord]

To all complaining about the two-tone thing, you do realize that the DualShock 4 is two-tone as well, right? It's just significantly more subtle.

 

[JimboJones]

With the moving of the light bar I guess that's them dumping support any sort of camera tracking.

 

[Tripolygon]

Damn I'm not a huge Mario fan but I want this to happen.
