I thought I saw that as well. Maybe im imagining it though.
I don't own a PS4 yet, so I have a question for you guys.
Does the dualshock 4 turns the lights on immediately after turning on the console, like the DS3 turns those red lights on top?
Yes, it does. And it's on the entire time it's in use.
Shu listens
How will you tell controller 1 from controller 2 without the light bar? The DS4 doesn't have any other leds. Press the touchpad and the speaker will tell you the number?
Thanks.
I'm trying to understand how is Sony going to do this. If the lights are always on, and the DS4 was designed to have the light always on, then how is it possible to turn it off with a firmware update? Wouldn't it be necessary a hardware modification?
The PS4 sends signals to the DS4 to change colors. Will the "turned off" effect be just an additional transparent color? If so, the battery life time would remain unchanged...
Holy shit, they actually listened
When your kids end up outside and eaten by coyotes you are going to wish it wasn't.
I really liked the light bar use in Outlast. When you were in night vision mode it was green and when you were out of battery it flickered until it went black. When you were almost dead it was red
In some games the light will flicker on and off (such as when firing a gun). So the capability of it turning off is there, even if for just a few milliseconds.Thanks.

The whole light bar insanity reminded me of the rumble debacle. Sony was so adamant no rumble was a good thing and then begrudgingly put it in
Good. Controller battery life increased by a hundred thousand trillion!
