I can’t believe the amount of praise the DualSense is getting. It must be an amazing controller. Can’t wait to try it out!

SullysCigar1345d ago

Yeah, it's awesome to hear. Seems for many this is the most defining feature of next gen.

Pretty funny when you think the usual suspects were calling this controller a gimmick!

RgR1345d ago

Probably only called a gimmick by those who have been gimmicked before.

The dual sense is no gimmick and playstation has never been known tk crrate useless gimmicks.

I just received mine in the mail (praise them releasing accessories early). I ordered the Camera, Charging Station and an extra controller.

I can say it's VERY comfortable to hold. Good weight to it. Feels solid. Buttons all respond well. Naturally I haven't tried it out with anything, but it is still a good first impression.

Stevonidas1345d ago

Just picked one up from Target and I concur. Can't wait for the 12th!

MaximusTKG1345d ago

I’ve used it hooked up to a pc it’s missing some features but for a horizon 4 gave me a bit of rumble. Nothing special, but the feeling made me believe it is going to have some excellent future applications.

MadLad1345d ago

Not gonna lie, as mainly a PC gamer this is going to be the first time you're seeing a Playstation controller sitting alongside my Xbox and Steam pads.

MrNinosan1345d ago

With a PS5 or connected to a PC?
The praise is about the features in the Dual Sense when used with a PS5, features that most likely won’t be available through PC.

If you’re going in for the PS5, congratulations. I had all consoles and a well built PC, but can’t imagine a life without some of the most outstanding games that was only on Playstation.

NEXUS-61345d ago

He can't help himself haha.

DS is the next gen difference, any other controller will feel empty and lacking.

SmokinAces1345d ago

Whats the point if youre not playing PS5 games through PS5 and taking full advantage of the haptics and adaptive triggers which is what everyone is raving about?

Thundercat771345d ago

I have never seen such praise for a next Gen controller. Sony really took the time to innovate and not just make another controller.

The Dualsense is going to be a system seller.

masterfox1345d ago

so effing excited to try it out, really interested to see how is implemented in racing games, for example Gran Turismo, I imagine some things for example some tension in the brakes or acceleration pedals would be awesome!.

UltimateRacer1345d ago

As a GT nut I’m excited to see what the Dualsense can do on GT7, I can imagine feeling different road surfaces, dirt and snow even rain on the surface, very excited.

Rhythmattic1345d ago (Edited 1345d ago )

Definitely for those that dont have a wheel, it seems the best controller for Driving games....

A good wheel is unbeatable though

Yes the next few weeks are going to be long!!

Day one buy ..
Too bad most devs do not take advantage of the controller’s haptics

CrimsonWing6922d ago

I hate that not many have taken advantage of the dual sense.

badz14921d ago

exclusive features like those featured by the Dualsense will only be maximized by Sony's own team, sadly. And they definitely need to do it or it will become an afterthought by the end of this gen with other devs not bothered taking advantage of the unique features. that's exactly the problem with the PS Vita. not enough devs (not even Sony's) are willing to push the envelop when it comes to its features passed the launch period. games like Uncharted GA which uses the Vita to its full capabilities are almost non-existent. even the power is underutilized.

CantThinkOfAUsername21d ago

They're struggling with putting out a finished game let alone implementing exclusive features.

Zenzuu21d ago

How are games like Horizon Forbidden West, Demon Souls, Ratchet & Clank, Spider Man, God of War Ragnarok, Returnal, Sackboy A Big Adventure and such unfinished?

jznrpg21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

They did a great job with the demo version I would guess with all this time they really push it now. Unfortunately nobody else does it. It really can make a big difference in immersion but it isn’t used beyond rumble , speaker and the touchpad as a button

Jingsing21d ago

It will be the second PS5 exclusive game. "Maybe" :/

Gabrielmpf21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Steering with the controller in GT7 is a game changer.
I've since played WipeOut and Project Cars 3 with gyro steering, and also loved it.
Wish more racing games used this feature
