DualShock....
It always had multiple vibration motors. One for each grip. Then there was the DualShock 2 which still used 2 motors that only had a couple vibration levels. DualShock 3 was more of the same.
Meanwhile DualShock 4 actually featured motors with smooth variable rumble and independent rumble control for each hand-grip.
So PlayStation had HD rumble way back in 2013 with the release of the DS4 before HD rumble was a thing Nintendo decided to make ...
Traditionally a desktop computer will run its components at a predefined clock rate and vary the power needed to run software.
Mobile hardware does the opposite it operates with highly variable clock speeds and draws only the power it needs for battery efficiency.
PS5 doesn't have to worry about power limitations because you're plugged into the wall like a desktop, but to maintain relative quiet and effective thermal dissipation in a tiny form-fac...
I think it has more to do with the fact that Joy-Cons drift like Ken Block and Nintendo games are so easy nowadays that some of them literally play themselves.
Maybe that has more to do with it yeah?
@DJStotty
Still an added expense my friend
@timotim
Then you play them on PC or PS4 or PS5
It's been shown the most notable thing about it is that it's d-pad looks atrocious.
That also might be why some Xbox fans are in here trying to find fault with DualSense.
And the more pronounced curve in the grips. When I saw this I had the same thought as Majin-vegeta "It looks familiar..." Only the DuelSense's handles remind me of the PS3 boomerang that never came to be.
@darth72
I too have all manner of PS controllers PSPs and even Move controllers. I also own an Xbox 360 and Nvidia Shield TV controller.
Just looking at images of the silhouettes of the XSX and DualSense controllers there is no similarities that can't be explained by evolutions of previous hardware and neither controller looks to copy ergonomics from the other.
Unfortunately the XSX did copy the share button and DualSense renamed the Share Bu...
@AspiringProGenji
I just watched IGN's hour long convo about this controller and their staff are claiming this (which explains their lack of credibility).
@Unspoken
Actually the silhouette of the handles (and only the handles) reminds me of the original PS3 controller design. Remember the boomerang?
Yes just the handles but still they are more gently and deliberately curved to fit your hand than even the DS4 controller.
Meanwhile the XO and XO Elite controllers curve at the shoulders and then keep a very flat line through to the bottom of the hand-grip. This seems to be the case with Series X' controller as well.
...
Well this pretty well kills that BS the media is saying about Dual Sense looking like a certain other console controller.

People who are downvoting you obviously don't remember what the PlayStation Motion Browser in the PS4 was supposed to do.
It was mentioned that developers could provide links on the homescreen menu to allow users to jump right into specific modes. This probably is used in a few games but the reality is that it's not used often at all. Most of these things were relegated to Community features and specific game invites.
Not sure how this comment would start a flame war...
The patent discusses the ability for game developers to provide what you could think of as links to game content that is already installed on the console. Imagine booting the device and looking at your games knowing that you need to start the game go through all the splash screens and stuff before switching to MP which requires more waiting and so on.
Now imagine that once the game is installed you can choose from the cons...
Agreed. Not that grown men shouldn't have the right to play what they want... it's just that I can't see grown men wanting to play this.
The "hate" isn't hate it's criticism and the criticism is justified. Look I don't give a toss about Animal Crossing but naturally when the headline said AC:NH proves Ninty is worse than EA I had to see what the buzz was about. This lockdown on saves isn't what I expected to see at all I expected MT like other people... Still the Switch has multiple profiles. So why can only one user play the game? Aren't multiple profiles there to insure that everyone gets their ...
You can just play Sim-City... Or better yet learn to give Animal Crossing up.
Isn't it the same for Nintendo? And they still haven't learned either... Go figure, but this is the problem whether it's price fixing (Nintendo 1990's) or forcing users to buy new hardware to start a new save (the article above) Nintendo has always been a bad apple. They enforced region locks for decades and years after Sony and MS lifted those limits respectively. Nintendo's Switch itself is proof how scummy they are. I mean the Wii U was more feature complete than Switch...
@Ju
It doesn't make a difference whether developers optimize games for PS5 specifically or not. The PS5's I/O is much faster and this will shine through unless developers intentionally force PS5 to load things slower.
I/O is not really something developers will need to worry about on PS5 at all.
As far as fast travel XSX will just be marginally slower depending on the game while rapid traversal will likely be limited again by CPU/GPU performance li...
With the exception of Playground and Ninja Theory I can't think of anything good coming from the studios MS acquired in the past few years.
Oops I also forgot to mention this from 2015:

I guess the Switch's Joy-Cons aren't that innovative afterall.
