  • PlayStation has finally made a more PREMIUM controller for diehards, which is VERY similar to Xbox's offerings. So, which is better?

    Great point about only being able to configure from a PS5. These days controllers are expected to be able to be fully usable on PC, and especially with Sony bringing first party games to Steam, configuration from PC should be standard. I bought three Dual Sense controllers (I don't know why) and ALL of them have drift.

    I forget who it was that was talking about the locking mechanism, but they explained there are some gaming tournaments that only allow wired controllers. If the controller is unplugged, even accidentally, the player gets disqualified. So the locking mechanism prevents that from happening.

    The reason your elite series 2 gets misaligned and seems like it needs to be a two handed job for you (4:26) is because you’re supposed to pull that soft liner off of the magnetic base altogether. It’s only placed there for shipping to protect the prongs, otherwise it should be completely removed. I have 3 elite series 2s and I just throw them on the docks and they line up perfectly every time.
    Alternatively you don’t NEED to keep the magnetic base inside the zippered pouch either. I just keep the bases on my tv stand and throw them on when I’m done playing. This way I don’t have to open a case every time. I get it if you want to protect your controller but to me it just adds more clutter to the stand that I’d rather not have. I think the charging base (and the internal battery) is one of the most underrated and unappreciated features of the elite series 2. I just pick up a controller it’s always fully charged and ready to go. The batteries last way longer than I’ll ever be playing so that has been one of my favorite features. Now that I’ve had my elites for years I cant go back to not having 4 back buttons either. I’m so used to using the back buttons that I rarely even use the face buttons anymore. Not having 4 on the PS controller seems like a big missed opportunity, even my steam deck has 4 back buttons.
    Hope this helps.

    • @Oracle2448
      @Oracle2448 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Now ill tell you why keeping the felt on and in the pouch is better long term.
      1. Leaving it in the open causes a lot of dust to build up, and the elite series 2 doesn't have much going for it in terms of dust resistance. This can cause drift, and many people complain and blame Microsoft for making shitty controllers.
      2. Leaving the felt on and not charging it every time you're done using it, rather than when needed will help keep your controller in good shape. And in his case, it seemed it wasn't lined up right and was further back so the felt was closer to the pins, mine is lined up well and I do not have any issue pulling it back and putting it on to charge.
      3. All your things are in one place makes it easy to change things. While your controller is docked charging.

    Thanks for the video Wolf. I would want to get the ccontroller for the integration with the UI of the PS5. Also I play A LOT of the Souls games so it would be nice to have a controller where i could put O and Square on back paddle buttons. I use my 8BitDo Pro 2 controller for Elden Ring and DS3 on my PC and wish I could use it on PS5. TBH, controllers like this, the TURBO function is what i am really after. I hate having to rapidly press a button for firing of a weapon or picking stuff up.

I have the gulikit zen pro with the haul sticks and it had latency/lag issue and bad drift out of the box. I bought a secondary one to see if there were some kind of defect but it turns out they were both the same. The calibration was so bad when I tested them on in the switch's calibration menu. The analogs were all over the place. However after a firmware update the latency/lag was fixed as well as the analog calibration was way better than they came out of the box, not perfect but a lot better. The dreamcast was the last console to use haul sticks and I see why. I have a video that I'll upload doing a review on these soon

    I found the cable lock made an already top heavy controller, more top heavy. my suspicion is that because the battery life is lower, they maybe use the cable lock as a psychological block to keep them more likely to keep it plugged in.

    I'm actually even more glad I learned soldering when I got seriously into game collecting 7 years ago.
    Dismantling consoles and controllers is no longer daunting, and replacing potentiometers on drifting sticks has become a really trivial task at this point. In fact, the way I've been getting controllers for cheap nowadays is through cleaning/repairing/refurbishing stick drift controllers from ebay. Got a dualsense last year for only £20. The stick drift didn't even require soldering for repairing the faulty potentiometer, just a cleanup.

    I like what I see outta the Dualsense Edge, but $200 dollars feels a little steep for a few things (specifically the connector housing) that I wouldn't end up using. I love seeing the swappable sticks that combat stick drift though, hope that becomes an industry standard.
    Would love to see a second row of back buttons only because I use those specifically in FPS's. I think if Playstation did what Xbox does with their Design Labs, it would help justify paying so much money for a lot of people. As always great job on the video Bob!

      2 back buttons vs 4 back buttons.
      You won't be able to reach d-pad with your right thumb with a DS-Edge.
      You won't be able to press LT and LB together with the same finger with a DS-Edge.
      DS-Edge is more expensive.
      DS-Edge has relatively small BAT life. Need to charge more frequent = degrades faster = controller subscription.

    I've had an Xbox Elite controller 2 for about 3 years now and the two bumpers have basically completely failed at this point. They both press in and about 90% of the time they get stuck and I have to manually pull them back out to their neutral position. The sort of like grip wrap around on the two handholds has also like deteriorated and the glue holding them on has lost its hold I guess. 3 years seems like good long while for a controller to hold out, but I think it's important to put into consideration the long term build quality when deciding to buy something that's sold at a HUGE premium.

    I have Xbox and PS5 so I’ve spent a few months with an Elite Series 2 and just picked up the DS Edge. There is no question that the Elite feels “elite”. It’s very premium, from the triggers to the grips, d-pad, and thumbsticks. The buttons are also “clicky” like all Xbox controllers. I only use 2 of the back paddles and even then, I find myself accidentally pressing them because they sit flush against the grip. Apart from that, love the Elite.
    The Dualsense has an option of two bumpers if you don’t want to use the paddles, and I love them. No more accidental presses. The trigger stops do have a little more give, even on the shortest setting, than the Elite. Not a deal breaker for me. I love the customization settings being built into the PS5 as I have no plans to use the controller on a PC. I do wish that the additional sticks included weren’t all dome. There is no swappable d-pad option like on the Elite. Great to know you can swap out the thumbsticks components if you ever needed to, but that’s a feature I hope to never need. Still, it’s the best controller for PS5. Worth $200? No. This thing should’ve been priced around $140. Just not enough value given the lowered battery life, no real upgrade tot he texture, and use of same plastic components as on a regular Dualsense.

    On a note about drift, I've had my Joycons for longer and used them a lot more than my Dualsense controller. But my Dualsense is the one that has drift problems. So much so that I went ahead and bought a new one.
    In context, I bought my PS5 to play GT7, and I play that with a steering wheel. I've only really played Returnal and Spiderman, so it's a very small amount of usage to begin having drift issues.
    In contrast, I completed Zelda BotW with all the shrines, I got about 60% of all the moons in Mario Odyssey, I completed 3 pokedex, I shiny hunted a bunch of pokemon, and I have about 100 hours into my village in animal crossing. All of that with the original joycon and I still have no drift issues.

    Hopefully Astro will release a PS5 compatible version of the C40 at some point. I picked one of those up for my ps4 and never touched a first party ps4 controller after that. It not only has the replaceable thumbsticks, but the thumbstick and d-pad positions can be flipped around to make it a more xbox style controller (or even some abomination where both sticks are on the left side of the controller), plus the sticks can be recalibrated for minor stick drift instead of replacing them. If they could upgrade it to have the four back triggers like the xbox elite that would be great as well

    I do enjoy a premium style controller for playing a third person narrative game. Everyone talking like these controllers only make a difference in first person shooters or other high-pace games, but in my opinion, the customizable options and especially the back buttons do make a big difference in feeling your gameplay experience feel smoother in any kind of game. Ever since I tried the back-button attachment for the PS4 I've felt an incredible relief and have had a smoother, more fluent experience by remapping buttons in a way that doesn't interfere with moving the camera. For example, jumping, dodging, interacting (like picking up collectibles while walking or especially running)... That's why I bought the DaulSense Edge, and I also have an Elite series 2 controller, which I bought on sale. I agree that the price is quite high and kinda absurd, but I do love my DualSense Edge after trying it on Ghost of Tsushima and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and I can't stress enough how fluent the gameplay experience becomes with one of these controllers even from a somewhat casual perspective.

    as someone who plays exclusively on PC wired with my DualSense, taking advantage of the features in games like Death Stranding, Ghostwire Tokyo or more recently Season: A letter to the Future, I gotta say not being able to customize the back buttons on PC is a major oversight, especially considering things like Steam Input made haptics and adaptive triggers not work.
    The controller ends up in a weird place where it could be dope for PC, but the lack of customization, color options and disabling of adaptive triggers when using trigger stops kind of defeat the purpose to me. Would rather use an other controller at that point. I ended up just slapping some thumb grips on my pink DualSense for comfort and that's going to do it for me. Considering I already own a Series, Switch Pro and wireless SNES controller, I just fail to see a use case where the DualSense edge would actually benefit me sadly.

  • @brad1785
    @brad1785 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'd rather they all use sticks that do not ever need replacement than to engineer everything to have replaceable ones.
    But also, lol if it only gets 4 hours of battery. That means Xbox Elite and Switch Pro controllers get a MINIMUM of TEN TIMES the battery life. I've never measured, but my Elite controller feels like it gets closer to 80 hours than the supposed 40 in the specs.
    For anybody that thinks it's not significant: you are putting 10 times the number of cycles on that DualSense battery, so it will need replacement much, much sooner.
