    Well guys, here it is, the Dual Shock 5, I mean Dual Sense:

    https://blog.us.playstation.com/2020/04/07/introducing-dualsense-the-new-wireless-game-controller-for-playstation-5/

    Introduces haptic feedback to the triggers, much like the Xbox One and Switch. It will also have a built-in microphone, and the Share button is replaced by a Create button, which I guess will be more or less the same thing.

    Also, judging from the blog's careful choice of words, I guess the touchpad won't make the cut? Still that thing up there looks a lot like a touchpad.

    Anyway, I'm just glad to see that they are slowly getting further and further away from the Dual Shock shape.

    It literally says it has a touchpad in the article.

    Looks alright. I wonder if the PS5 itself gets the same 2 tone colour scheme.

    @Malek86 They do mention the touch pad when talking about the light going either side of it.

    Okay, so by and large they're the same controller really, but with the haptic feedback. Not a bad thing I suppose, you don't wanna mess about with the formula too much.

    Having the light bar shining directly into your face is what everyone was crying out for.

    Oh yeah, I definitely missed that. It would be necessary for backward compatibility anyway.

    Hmm. Saw the banner image, thought, "looks rather snazzy." Then I saw the full pic further down and for some reason my brain is telling me it looks a bit like the Ouya controller. Might be the sharper top... corners? Are they corners?

    Shoulders. I think I mean shoulders.

    I quite like it but it looks more like what I’d expect from a concept than final design.
    Likely means we’ll get the black and white console, with blue light, which will jump out of your tv unit visually. That’ll look a bit shit if so.

    The share and menu buttons being angled bother me somehow.

    I'm surprised that they are moving away from colored buttons. Maybe they didn't sit well with the white color.

    Also, at this point I take it to mean that the default PS5 color will be white. Possibly with blue light. Very Star Trek 2009, which I would hate.

    That rubber on the analog sticks looks the same as the DS4, which is not great news unless they severely improved its durability.

    Yeah it is a bit silly. I'm just going to make a new ps5 controller thread and a seperate console thread. Then can a mod merge the relevant threads into the new threads?
    I'm going to post this post in a new thread, just so people know what's happening.

    Thanks

    Yeah, this isn't Resetera you know!

    Also, the rubber on my DS4 sticks is still fine (bought April '14).

    People are only bumping my thread because they hate Armoured Bear more than me.

    Which is saying something!

    The only thing I want to know is will there be less lag on this compared to that piece of shit Switch Pro controller.

    For what it's worth, I really like the design - Not that I spend a great deal of my time looking at my hands while playing...

    However, what has been seen cannot be unseen:



    You're welcome...

    It reminds of of Portal for some reason. I really like it.

    It's ugly as fucking sin. Gunna stick out like a sore thumb alongside all the other black pieces of AV equipment under my telly. I assume they'll have different colours, but that is a horrible one to use as the poster child.

    Never had any problems with my Pro Controller. I only use it in docked mode, which are you playing with? I also haven’t had any issues with my DS4 controllers. My nephew had issues with his DS4 that cleared up when we changed his TV to game mode. Could this be the route of your issues?

    Is it the Black bits you don't like?

    I have to say I think it looks pretty cool. I’d want a Star Wars design though. I have all three PS4 designs and the Artoo 360 console.

    I like non black consoles, having endless black boxes is a bit dull IMO.
