DualSense seems like a pretty key differentiator. Very curious to see if I'll enjoy the new features.

I love the idea of putting the thing playing music into the world, diagetic sound is great and then using that diagetic soundtrack in tandem with headphones / surround sound is really cool.

I don't play with them, but what are the odds of an official Dualsense Driving Game Controller thing?

Looks like PS5 is THE system to play the game for the best experience

I think mostly it'll come down to performance. Even on XSX, the previews a few weeks ago didn't have a locked framerate.

Sadly the game itself hasn't gripped me enough to be day one. I'll definitely pick it up at some point.

The DuelSense stuff does seem to be getting game creators thinking more and that's a good thing.
The biggest takeaway is that they send a waveform to adjust the resistance, and that makes it sound like it's very easy to develop for and add into games.

Any system with a good wheel would be a better experience, be it PS5, Series X or PC.

Is Dirt 5 specifically any good with a wheel? I was under the impression it wasn't, which wouldn't be that uncommon for arcade racers.

If an arcade racer that isn't particularly built around using a wheel, and there's a standard controller that gives you this much feedback on controls and surfaces etc, then there would be a fair argument in favour of that controller being the "best experience".

He refers 120hz mode as "Exclusive to next-gen consoles" and not as a PS5 feature. I just find it interesting that the Tempest was given it's own special praise as a PS5 feature, much like the Dualsense.

That's the first time we've really heard a third party developer go out of their way to talk about how impressive the tempest 3D sound hardware is. The Dualsense seems like a slam-dunk at this point, but is the Tempest 3d audio another differentiator?

I mean he could have talked about the 3d audio in much broader multi-platform way, much like 120hz, but he didn't. Maybe it is a step up from Dolby Atmos on Xbox/PC.

Duals sense is going to be a much bigger sellingpoint than any powervector when picking up multiplats.
Makes me wonder if the added expression of the dualsense will be reflected in reviewscores as well??

It doesn't support wheels at launch :/

You must be kidding me...

Tbh, you have to do things pretty bad for your racing game, be it arcade or not, not be better with a wheel.

Based on a promotional video put out by Codemasters?
I mean, Codemaster wouldn't care whether you buy it on Xbox or PS. does Series X have special feature that's not available in PS version?

I kinda wish he gave more of an example of how the adaptive triggers work in the game. It feels a bit glossed over.

The Dualsense is going to be great for racing games, probably a total game-changer. First time you'll have a good control over gas oversteering without a dedicated wheel and pedals.

Maybe I'll actually be able to drive a Group B with mid rear traction on their next Dirt Rally game lmao.

Seems like DualSense tools are simple enough for 3rd parties to use extensively in multiplatform games, nice.

This is the interesting stuff for me, some people and outlets have been pretty dismissive and assuming these technoologies won't be there or utilised decently in non-fist party offerings, but if it's simple enough to integrate and offers so much more for the gaming experience, it'd be couter-productive not to support them to the best of their abilities if it really is straight forward to do so.

What happens if you play a 120fps game on a 60fps display? Will the PS5 still run the game in 120fps in the background or will it draw less power running in 60fps natively?

You probably won't be able to set it to 120fps if the OS can't detect the TV is capable of displaying 120fps.

I'l didn't expect to get this, I still might not. After the early impressions on the series x it didn't sound like it offered anything new aside from the next gen frame rate but if the game is vastly improved with the dual sense I might pick it up.

I'm far from techy but my understanding is that if the system doesn't detect a 120hz display you won't get the option to play it at 120hz.

I think the dualsense opens up the question of overall experience.

Wait this game supports Tempest?
