User Warned: Hostility toward another member
The handgrips look closer to an Xbox controller than they do a playstation contoller.
Xbox:
Kinda weird tweet considering DS4 had a share button lol
Its a month old gif they retweeted to take advantage of whats trending.
Are you fucking slow or something?
OP
OP
we have more likes then you
they want a attention
they are desperate
real reason they are just tranding and Want to Share
I have seen people mentioning tweets and likes, it can't be a good thing if the xbox controller is trending from a ps5 reveal, can it? That must mean a whole lot of comments are saying the ps5 controller is trying to emulate the xbox controller.
All that said i bet the gamepass marketing team would have better capaitalized.

From what I've seen that's what the discussion has been so far
Hilarious seeing people here take this tweet so seriously. Xbox controller is trending because a lot of people are saying the PS5 controller looks like an Xbox controller.
So Xbox thought it would be funny to tweet a gif if their controller. It's not about the share button. It's just a silly reaction tweet to the Xbox controller trending. That's it. It's not that deep people.

To add context and understanding as to why xbox posted that GIF which would be random to those that just saw the tweet alone
I mean it's all subjective. I think the PS5 controller looks better too. Not that the Xbox is ugly mind you
The ps5 controller looks cool but im super curious about the xbox d pad. it looks like it could be great.
I don't understand what Xbox was trying to say.
Unless it really was just as simple as showing off the button, nothing more.

They don't grasp that because they don't want to grasp that. Console wars rule everything around me.

Tbf there isnt much they can do to improve on perfection, though i have to say i like the look of the dual shock sense! just not the color scheme.
So i'm guess most of you folks will take a nicer controller over 2 extra GPU teraflops?
Not to be taken seriously
Not going to fault Xbox here, they are just trying to remind people of their product... They are not taking shots at Playstation. Cut them some slack guys....
It does go to show though, Playstation has incredible reach. It's absurd how much of the gaming landscape conversation they dominate. At this point i'm convinced that their PS5 blowout could be a Twitter thread, and it would gain more traction than the traditional conferences of the other publishers XD

Microsoft isn't allowed to run commercials for upcoming first-person shooter Destiny because Sony has an exclusive deal on the marketing rights, but that's not stopping the software maker from getting its message across. Microsoft has created a fake Destiny fragrance, and the company is surprisingly upfront about it. "Thanks for smelling that something was up," jokes the site that includes a mocked up bottle of the Destiny fragrance to bypass Sony's marketing exclusive. The real Destiny will make its way to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next Tuesday.

when i was checking twitter "Xbox Controller" was trending more than the new DS5 lmao
some funny tweets all around
Which is weird considering the ds2 could be gotten in white (don't remember if the ds1 could be gotten in white)
Some fans were Angry because they're Tranding (says why Xbox tranding xD)
God, that PS5 controller is mesmerizing.
Can't stop looking at it, I forgot what this thread is about as soon as I saw the pic again.

They're not doing this to 'say' anything (well, technically they are but that just complicates things lol) but to help maintain and potentially grow their brand awareness/image. It just looks so out of place here because Sony is the dominant party and, therefore, has less reason to be aggressive when it comes to meeting the same goal.
Most likely Xbox will update Design Labs when the Series X launches
You can create your own color scheme for the controllers, triggers, bumpers, buttons, etc with patterns. Its pretty cool: https://xboxdesignlab.xbox.com/en-us/?rtc=1
It really is. A simple marketing retweet made out to be a console warriors move lol.
I clicked it and almost every tweet is comparing with the PS5 controller lol

The controller Martha...What does it mean

Isn't this literally how EVERY platform marketing deal works? I have yet to see any PS4/Cyberpunk branding.
