Holy shit!

3 top 10 WorldWide trends on Twitter at the moment!

#PowerofPlayStation

The DualSense Controller caused 3 of the top 10 worldwide trends to be about it and PS5...

Anyone notice the gunmetal PS5 logo? Possible hint that the PS5 is going for a more 'premium' design and hence, NOT $400 but at least $450...

It's almost as if you just hand waived his comment away because it doesn't jive with your opinion. I guess that's one way to handle it.

If Sony had done off-set stick placement you'd tout the virtues of that. It's all in what you are used to. Some prefer that, others the Xbox style. No need to extrapolate anything else from it than that.
You can hand waive a comment about controller preference lol. That's the point, it's how it feels in your hands. My rebuttal to a person not liking DS4 is other people feel just as strongly not liking another controller. It's completely subjective and personal preference, there's no debate to be had about it really.

I'm like whatever. I couldn't care less what a controller looks like as long as it functions properly. Same goes for the console itself

Respawn Entertainment provided input on the Xbox One gamepad while Bungie did the same for the DualShock 4. I'm curious which, if any major game devs had input on the design of the DualSense.

I think it looks great, love the colors. Here's hoping the console itself is also in the same color scheme and not a black box again.

Oh my god, it looks beautiful. Can't wait to grab one for my PC. Gyro, touch pad, looks futuristic, looks comfortable, mine!

I get about 6-8 hours out of mine. Not ideal. I have a station where i put the drained one on and then pull off the most charged one, and do this circle every time. Hopefully its same level as switch pro controller battery

I still don't know how the WiiU pro controller could have such a battery, It dwarfed Switch pro controllers'. Can't even remember when was the last time I charged those.

Looks great to me. Sony, this time please ignore this inevitable crybaby backlash and just ram it down our throats. IOW, do what Nintendo did after they announced the official name "Wii" to almost universal derision. They stuck to their guns and look how that turned out. It'll be fine.

Overall feeling it. Love the larger pad as it was a good feature but felt hard to hit a particular side. Pause/options and the other one are in good places too. Apprehensive about that d-pad placement though and no back paddles is incredibly disappointing. Those bumpers/triggers looks ready to catch an unholy amount of dirt too. Gonna be fun cleaning this thing...

It reminds me of a Bugatti.
and I hope different colors are an option.
haptic feedback and adaptive tension will be nice.

I really hope there is a headphone jack. Especially considering how much Sony has talked up the importance of audio design going into the PS5. A shitty built-in mic is nowhere near a good trade-off for a headphone jack that can be used for actual mics and great headphones that will take advantage of all their new audio technology.

Okey people, I don't know how to do it but we really need to get a movement going to get Sony to color those face buttons... COLORLESS PLAYSTATION FACE BUTTONS ARE A SIN.

First impressions I'm not a fan, mostly because I like how the DualShocks have been in terms of size when compared to the Xbox. I prefer the smaller sized ones, but I'll wait till I can have it in my hand. And to be fair, not like we have a choice unless the Dual Shock 4 was fully backwards compatible, and I can't see that happening because of the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. Wait and see.

I wonder if the analog stick grips will actually be durable this time around
