Just got the DualShock 4 500 million LE (new) after using my original DS4 for 8 yrs!!!!
It looks so good specially that translucent design. Never owned a second controller let alone a LE one. Got this for PS4 slim btw

Es original o una replica pirata?
Me parece que es tan original como el DualShock 4 con skin de Messi. Lo lamento OP.

The December 2005 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly
Here’s the thing: the PS3 controller was kind of trash. Don’t get me wrong, the original DualShock was an incredible controller for the ‘90s, so wildly revolutionary and influential, and it’s the only controller from that generation that feels like a normal controller you’d be comfortable using nowa

Old Sony Dual Shock 4 PadHack wiring
I used to build fightsticks "a few" years ago and this technique was more or less popular for a wireless PS4 compatible fightstick at the time (at least in my region). It took some meticulous work but it was affordable. Did you ever used one of these PCBs? Was it too laggy?

Suggestion: Allow PS4 users to edit using the Dualshock 4 Touchpad
It's surprisingly sensitive, and recognises both finger position and motions such as swipe. Would be a great way to edit walls and stairs if implemented well, even if it only recognised a small subset of possible edits, i.e. draw a square to add a door or window to a wall, or diagonal swipe to edit

Pro Controller is great but should have audio jack
I'm loving the Pro Controller. It's probably the most comfortable gamepad I've ever used. Face buttons are great. I've read several people having problems with the d-pad but compared to the Xbox and Dual Shock ones, it's leagues better.
The only one big gripe I'm having with the controller is the a

What could Rockstar do with the PS5 DualSense-controller features?
This is so untrue, pretty much every current gen PS5 game I’ve played has had adaptive triggers - including GTA 5’s PS5 port. Would be very surprised if GTA 6 doesn’t haven them too. Rockstar has traditionally took full advantage of the DualShock 4 / DualSense’s gimmicks (controller light, speaker,

The gyro in the Switch 2 Pro Controller is pretty fantastic
Been playing 007: The World is Not Enough using the ProCon 2's gyro through reWASD. It's definitely smoother than the Dualshock 4, and feels close or about on-par with the DualSense to me. I'm happy to be able to finally use a Nintendo controller for my gyro needs on PC. The ProCon 1 and original Jo
