What premium gift would you get for a Steam Deck lover who’s already well-equipped?

I have the Deckmate stuff by Mechanism, and I really like it - it’s basically a little bracket that attaches to the back that you can then attach accessories to, like a kickstand or gaming pillow. The gaming pillow is pretty neat - it was kind of a luxury purchase, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised

Starfield is coming to PlayStation 5 on April 7, enhanced for PlayStation 5 Pro, with a Visual mode that runs 4K resolution at 30 fps and a Performance mode that features improved visuals at 60 fps.

On top of that, in-game audio logs and non-local ship intercoms will pour through the DualSense controller speaker, immersing you deeper in the action. Starfield has also been visually enhanced for the PlayStation 5 Pro, with a Visual mode that runs 4K resolution at 30 fps and a Performance mode tha

PlayStation just announced a Limited Edition DualSense controller for 007 First Light, releasing later this year. I was immediately bothered that the design, which is clearly trying to emulate the iconic opening, didn’t have “rifling” (the swirly bit in the barrel that stabilizes the bullet). I gave

PS5 controller makes playing feel difficult

I just bought the PlayStation five digital last week and I’ve been a long time Xbox player. The dual sense controller at least for me is a way better controller. It doesn’t take long to get used to it at all. If anything the dual sense is one of the biggest Wins of the console. It’s just awesome.

Testing PlayStation DualSense DIY Homebrew Dongle for P.C Gaming!

Since Sony PlayStation won't make an official dongle of their DualSense controllers for PC, so i made one for myself instead and it is fantastic! Thanks to Raspberry PI PICO 2W as well as the software that is developed by awalol, i don't have to deal with Bluetooth that has terrible latency whenever

Sony Patents Controller With Deformable Buttons To Let You Twist, Pitch, And Feel Gameplay

I don't own a PlayStation so I unfortunately can't play Astro Bot, but the footstep haptics in FFXIV is some of the coolest stuff I've experienced with my DualSense controller. Incredibly immersive. I've also been playing Arkngiths: Endfield quite a lot since its release earlier this year, almost ex

Steam Controller Review Slips Embargo, Revealing Its Price

Yeah, that alone is worth the extra money. I currently own a modded dual sense with Hall Effect. Without it, it’s just a horrible controller that will 100% get stick drift sooner or later. There are people on PlayStation subs who are on their 5th, 6th, 7th dualsense ffs. That’s more than a PS5 at th

Steam Controller review slips embargo, controller to cost $99

100% accurate. PlayStation was the FGC standard for generations and, at a professional level, specific hardware matters less than the thousands of hours you've clocked building muscle memory with this exact hardware. Professional gamers also replace controllers like runners replace shoes (go look at

you can add it to your cart

I don't understand the comparison with the DualSense controllers. Don't forget that PlayStation controllers have haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Two things the Steam Controller lacks that really change the experience. At worst, you can get a DualSense for €50, or buy some TMR controllers on A

People don't know what the Steam Controller is

Third-party PC controllers are better now than they've ever been, and are extremely affordable. The value proposition of the DualSense Edge and Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 fell off a cliff when brands like GameSir and 8BitDo came onto the scene, where they offer infinitely more than the Xbox and
