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



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



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

Knock this form of trolling off or your time here will be short.

Thank you.

Looks good, and bodes well for a visually striking design for the console itself I hope.

 

[Nymphae]

Didn't Cerny say in a past interview that it only a hair bigger than the DS4, about XBox controller size and weight?

I don't know but I'm looking at the handles on my DS4 right now and they look a lot narrower near where the shoulder buttons are. I don't think they'd drastically change the feel of it, but from those pics it definitely looks beefier.

 

[GlassAwful]

Its not just two toned, there is a drop off and edge as it transitions from white to black. It almost looks like a shell smothering a Dualshock 4. Why would they do that?

 

[Postaldude40]

So they fiquerud out a cooling solution for the controller now….
jokes aside it better have great battery life compared to the horrible PS4 controller.

 

[Jtibh]

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.

But that means in order to keep my vr backlog i have to keep a ps4 controller or buy a ds4.
Or maybe there will be a new ps5 vr out soon after launch that doesnt require the camera.

Man i feel like they are just rushing things out so they can stay relevant in the media.
Everything feels half ass.

I am ready day one either way, dont care about all this xbox fan hate i know sony will bring quality but honestly what the hell is going on over there?

The same day you pull tlou2 from store and refund people you show us ds5?
I just dont get it anymore.

 

[Alphagear]

Colour scheme could suggest ps5 console is white and black.

[FranXico]

Welp

Thread was fun while it lasted

5 pages it lasted until the Discord gang came in.

 

[stitch1]

I like the design. Kind of like a mashup of a Xbox One and DS4 controllers. The color scheme will have to grow on me.

 

[SirTerry-T]

i want so bad.. best looking controller ever. thank god

"Second" best looking controller ever...let's ease up on the hyperbole throttle a little

What has discord anything to do with this?

Exactly, it does look like a shiny new bodykit wrapped round the old insides (well outsides) of the DS4 on those first pics as there seems to be such a contrast in the finish/plastics. We'll see when the real images are out but that all white version looks even worse.

Hopefully the real deal won't be quite as jarring but its an odd detail to put in a render.

 

[Tiamat2san]

Some nice improvements. (Shape and light bar)
I was hoping for asymmetrical sticks , too bad.
Haptic feedback scares me when I see the thickness of the front buttons.
I hated haptic on apple products.

Just one last thing....
Please, please, don’t do a white console...
Pleeeeeease Sony.

 

[Azelover]

I like what I'm seeing.

I wish they would unveil the whole console within a single presentation.

 

[Birdo]

 

[GymWolf]

i kinda like it except for the usual analog stick placement.
the color is ace.
i hope construction quality is not utter shit like ds4.

do we know if it has a jack (or at least a john)??

 

[Hostile_18]

Most people on Reeee hate the colour scheme.

The black should slowly fade to white via 50 shades of grey to show how inclusive the controler is.

 

[Humdinger]

I love how it looks. Especially with a color scheme imposed on it...

 

[SonGoku]

Just noticed the buttons are clear like the Vita. If it has the Vita-like D-pad... Clicky BLISS!!!!

Look closely.

You think ?
Hope you are right

It was one of the most requested features for the controller in a research Sony did.
Mostly because you can use voice commands with it.

 

[Yoboman]

Love it. Matches my dualshock 4

 

[TGO]

Fixed
I'll try the colours next

 

[Physiognomonics]

I thought PS5 was going to be compatible with PSVR but this doesn't have a light bar?

They said PS5 will, not DualSense. DS4 will very probably be compatible with PS5 for anything BC.

 

[ksdixon]

Yes! They got rid of the light bar! Don't have to worry about the battery draining fast.

it's there. that blue is the lightbar.

I assume it's gonna be red/green/pink for players 2,3,4 like on PS4 controller.

 

[LordOfChaos]

That's some quick work, internet

 

[Mista]

Yeah for voice commands its going to be good but party chat I don’t think so.

 

[PuppetMaster]

This looks hot!!

Really like the two tone look and no color on the buttons.

 

[Sorcerer]

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

No paddles. I'm sure the Playstation "Elite" controller will have them. I wonder if the current paddle add ons s will work?
Seems Sony took some inspriation from their boomerang controller prototype.

 

[MasterCornholio]

Yeah, the DS4 battery life is garbage. Has SONY addressed it?

"We also took thoughtful consideration into ways to maintain a strong battery life for DualSense’s rechargeable battery, and to lessen the weight of the controller as much as possible as new features were added."

I wouldn't take this as confirmation of an improvement but at least they thought about it.

 

[ethomaz]

I think the buttons really needs to receive some colors.

 

[-Arcadia-]

What has discord anything to do with this?

I believe an Xbox Discord (unofficial of course) was discussing ways to shill on Era. It’s become a bit of an in-joke.

 

[Hostile_18]

I definitely prefer without the colours. Feels less like a toy, more a premium device.

But can I have a Neon Pink controller please, white buttons (if your taking orders lol ).

 

[TheAdmiester]

Looks much nicer build quality but the triggers are still a terrible shape IMO

 

[GHG]

Yeh the quality is usually poor but it can be pretty cool in certain circumstances (characters talking on radio etc) if you're not using headphones.

 

[munancho]

Thank you.

Why don't you go back and actually read the flow of comments? No trolling, real or imaginary, has took place here besides the demented delusions of a few petulant shriekers doing all they know how to do - overreact to problems that don't really exist.

All I did was a state a fact, a fact anyone with a working brain can see:

MS laid their whole machine bare to generate some interest whilst Sony drops a render of a controller and folks go crazy. A pertinent observation I'd say. If you've got an issue with that feel free to contact me via PM for clarification.

Thank you.

 

[Hayabusabruh]

Now all of a sudden the xbox controller design is "sexy"

 

[Liamario]

Altered the colour of the buttons and for me, that looks nicer. Not as sterile at the very least

 

[ksdixon]

It doesn't look like a vibrator. I'm relieved.

i'm confused by this post

 

[makaveli60]

Wow, that looks sick! Though I miss the colors from the buttons.

 

[Alphagear]

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

They will get the games right which is all that matters.

 

[Birdo]

Also RIP to the Dualshock brand name.

Over twenty years of service.

 

[Shi11]

So can sony fanboys admit that the xbox controller is better than the DS4 since they love the shape of this controller now.

 

[GymWolf]

Most people on Reeee hate the colour scheme.

of course they hate it, it reeks of white privilege from 10 miles away.

 

[TheStruggler]

Is that the final colour scheme or you guys think it will be black? If not, white console confirmed for launch...?

 

[Liamario]

Fixed

I think that's a little too much on the colour end of things. I think the colour on the logo messes with the over aesthetic negatively.

Some of you really can't help yourselves lol.

I have zero sympathy.

Ah, excuse my ignorance. Never knew about that.

Yeh the quality is usually poor but it can be pretty cool in certain circumstances (characters talking on radio etc) if you're not using headphones.

Yeah but this will be coming from the controllers speaker like the current controller. Its also good for voice commands as ethomaz said

 

[iconmaster]

I anticipated something much more conservative from Sony given their current-gen domination. This is unexpected.

 

[hyperbertha]

i'm confused by this post

Why wouldn't I be relieved that it doesn't look like a vibrator?
