So what functionality is the touch pad supposed to serve then? It doesn't seem practical, unless its just for swiping through the OS?
What in the actual fuck?
I hope the touchpad is multitouch. Two finger tap for friends list, three for sending message, four for chat window, etc.
With PSEye possibly being bundled does anyone think it has lost the Mic Array due to the controllers having them?
There is something strange going on with the shoulder buttons. It almost looks like there is only room for 2 shoulder buttons.
Question: Will we see the final controller/console designs next week?
Kinect isn't exactly as proven a science as touch-screens. The Move also functions better and has been less force-fed this gen to gamers. Plus, this also doesn't look super-expensive, although I expect a controller to be $60-75 now for PS4.
This rough controller has a lot going for it, if it's real. The d-pad and improved sticks alone... it's a refinement and not a 100% redo, which I always appreciate.

Sony has no shame. Are they really going to try to sell screens on controllers having seen Nintendo innovate that approach with the WiiU? Ripping off rumble from the N64 controller, motion controls with the Sixaxis, and now SCREENS with this unnamed PS4 controller, I have never been more disappointed. Can they not come up with an innovative idea for once in their companies lives? At least with the Vita they at least tried to innovate with rear touch panel capabilities, but this is just getting ridiculous. Sony I sincerely hope you change your plans while you have the time. Maybe then will I consider dropping money on this travesty.
Trust me sir, you're not the only one disgusted by these tactics. Rising above the clear corporate machine is something we as gamers must do. Onward we must push in order to secure a place where we as gamers are no longer taken advantage of. Look, I know some of you fine folk are okay with blatant plagiarism in the industry. Let us reject in this instance though the clear shenanigans and gimmickery this controller represents. I know I won't be there day 1 for PS4's launch. Nor will I be there for day 2 of PS4's launch. Gone are the days where honor was a concept that pervaded the Japanese gaming industry.
Stupid question time.
Its a touchpad and not a touch screen which means it cant display any picture righ? right?

You could be right! Would get rid of the ton of bulk with the Eye.

Lets not go down that road againIt's the Christina Hendricks of Dual Shocks.
Except it isn't a screen. As for "ripping off" motion controls, Eyetoy says hello.Sony has no shame.

Probably not. I think it will be used to quickly access certain functions.Stupid question time.

Tell me you're serious.
headphone jack... wtf is everyone talking about.
that makes no sense. if you use headphones they get run through a receiver... It would be a huge waste to wirelessly transmit the audio signal to the controller to be processed and exported through a headphone jack... let alone a huge waste of power/battery life.

Nintendo needs to sue here, I take seriously the idea that a company should be encouraged to create their own ideas versus leeching off of other successful products.
On this controller I see the heart and soul of the WiiU and Dreamcast.
Positioned in the center where everyone can see it is everything wrong with the gaming industry today.
End this Sony.

150 dollar camera vs a touch panel in the controller

Well the DS3 weight is good for me a bit more aswell - I guess without knowing the inner workings we can't tell how it will work out. I am excited nontheless.See I want the controller to have some weight to it. Lets not forget the six axis
