Create button is a new share button, with few tweaks.

All announcements from Geoff are fu . . . . g boring.Why he even bother.Worst game journalist ever

We learned it didn't have back buttons sadly

Agreed. It was just holding the controller in hand.

You gone fail this one too for "no new information"???

Aren't most hands on videos about as pointless as an unboxing video? Especially for something like a controller where each individual has their own wants and needs in how it feels and performs?

Maybe they will make one specific for the DS5. Either that or they make a spacer that would transition from the DS4 design to the DS5 so the existing BB can plug in and blend with the controller.

Once you get to using it, you cant play any other way.

Funny thing is, I just ordered a back button from Amazon expected delivery is August 4th. I've been trying to get one since release but didn't move fast enough and they were sold out everywhere. If you did find one online they are being sold for a hundred to a hundred fifty dollars. Now that they're being made and shipped to retailers again I moved with the quickness this time.

I really hope they done try to nickle and dime people by making a new attachment and charge fifty or more dollars. The idea of making the current attachment compatible would look ugly af because the aesthetics between the two controllers are very different.

Money makes the world go round, but at the same time the root of all evil.

I'm fine with that. Adding back buttons means EVERY gamer has access to them and games can be designed to use them for more options in games. Same reason every PS5 has a touchpad, btw. Same reason every PS5 will have an SSD and we're paying the cost for that. So that we can advance the lowest common denominator.

I think people thought the PS5 would because of the back button attachment, which made sense to have if they were going to do streaming of PS5 games, and you could use the additional buttons on the PS5 controller for BC games.

I guess in the end, it was just something that they saw had a market, so they made it for the controller. Maybe they'll have one for the DS5, but would have been nice if they were on there from the start. They wouldn't have to be as fancy and programmable like the one on the DS4 attachment, since you could do that on the system anyways, or sometimes the games, or devs could implement them as extra buttons for games.

Agreed plus surely the Sony guy could have just said yes, different colours are coming year 1 or something. Fucks me right off these marketing guys on lots of money yet they can't answer a simple question? What are they worried about? What were gonna hold off getting a extra controller on launch day? Like jeez just say multiple controller and consoles will coming like any other gen.
What answer did we get, "were concentrating on launch first"

I would take longer battery life over faster charging.

USB C is just a difference in port shape, not performance. That would be up to the charging block to either be a quick charge or normal charge. There are lots of C shaped devices that are not quick charge but Sony could have put a QC chip in the controller... who knows.

Fast charging leads to early battery degradation on every device that supports it because it generates more heat. I keep my phone on slow for that reason alone.

Its like the final episode of the Sapranos. You gonna go to make a comment and when you click add th-

Timezone thing maybe.... RIP
