Why did controllers double in price in a decade? I hate giving Sony money but it's hard to find anything comparable to the DS4.
It's Microsoft's bullshit policy, all third party accessories must be wired only. It's because they know other companies make better products than they do.
It really doesn't bother me, really.
Damn really? Guess this explains certain things about third party Xbox controllers
What do you mean wireless Bluetooth version? They're all wireless and there is only 1 version. The Dualshock 4 has the same problem as all the previous Sony controllers - it's smol.
on a PC. You just pair it and play, unlike the DS4 where you need some Russian h4xx0r driver to get it to work.
Gamesir T4 Cyclone exists. Only the Pro version is worth buying since it has a dongle, it has horrible bluetooth latency and normal one doesn't come with a dongle.
*chants Paul Atreides style* Input lag is the fun-killer! Of course they sell the dongle separately instead of just including it. I wish they had a Hall sensor version in the DS4 form factor. I don't agree with a previous poster that the Xbox-style ergonomics is the most comfortable. Vastly preferred the DS4 shape, weight and feel though the DS3 was too light. DS4 feels perfect for me.
There's 2 versions of the Dualshock 4. They updated the design and changed how the LEDs look. The newer models have lights down the front.What do you mean wireless Bluetooth version?

That's why it was pretty much universally accepted back then that the Xbone controller was better. It just felt more comfortable.
The Dualsense is a game changer, it's a more ergonomic shape and actually sized for adult human hands. Plus It Just Workson a PC. You just pair it and play, unlike the DS4 where you need some Russian h4xx0r driver to get it to work.
I don't know about "doubled in price" either. Where I'm from, the Dualsense is only 10% more than a Dualshock 4. And it's better in every way (except for battery life, which sucks).
Yeah, I experienced something similar. I developed carpal-tunnel like symptoms a few years ago and the pain was aggravated when I played using my Xbone controller. Once I switched to my old DS4, it was like balm for the palm. But as mentioned earlier, I hate how the left and right bumpers on top feel on xbox controllers. They just feel cheap, plasticy and clickity, not smooth like on the DS4 and DS5. The DS5 seems closer to the Xbox controllers in form factor - or kind of in-between the DS4 and Xbox - but those bumpers on top still feel nice and solid.The xbox 360 controller was superior to the PS3 controller but I find it hurts my hands to use it these days. The PS4 controller I can play for hours no problem. 360 and an hour I've got bad arm ache from how you have to hold it. We all have different shaped hands.What do you mean wireless Bluetooth version?

Dark souls on a 360 pad feels unnatural. I remember playing Dark souls 1 on PC when it released using a 360 pad and it seriously fucked with my timing and enjoyment of the game. Souls games feel way more natural on a Sony controller because Sony built theirs with 3D platformers in mind while Microsoft went with FPS games. The PS3's analogs were really loose and good for smooth movement but bad for aiming. The 360 was so much tighter and made a joke out of playing multi platform shooters.
