Do you guys like the new controller design? And here is something I haven’t heard anyone bring up. You’re able to use the duelshock 4 controller with a PS3. It works with most games. Will you be able to use the PS5 Controller with the PS4 and PS3? Because that would add a lot of value for me if it did. And its going to cost 100 dollars Canadian. And Im pretty sure we will be able to use the duelshock 4 with the PS5. So the duelshock 4 might be a better controller overall than the PS5s controller if its not backwards compatible with the PS4 and PS3. Just something to think about.

I find it interesting that Xbox basically went with a basic design and the controller is about the same, whereas Playstation went all futuristic.
June 16, 2020 at 1:20 am #162783Ya I dont like it either. Part of the reason I always went PlayStation over XBOX was because of the controller. I’ve always loved the PlayStation controllers. But now it seems they are trying to get more people from XBOX over to PlayStation… As long as my duelshock 4 works with the PS5 im cool though.
June 16, 2020 at 2:51 am #162813I’d have to feel it in my hands to say for certain. It looks bigger than the PS4 controller — I hope not much bigger.
The controller that has felt best in my hands of all the ones I’ve tried (since PS2 and original Xbox) is the Xbox One S controller. The worst, by far, is the Xbox One Elite (too heavy and large for my hands).
The PS4 controller works fine for me, although pressing the tiny Options button is awkward; based on current photos, it seems that same tiny flat Options button has not been improved all that much on the new PS5 controller.
Reportedly, the PS4 controller will function with the PS5.
Will your existing PS4 controller be compatible?
Tentatively, yes. While your DualShock 4 PS4 controller will lack the new features (discussed above) of the DualSense controller, Sony has traditionally been good about backwards compatibility. PS4 games will all be backwards compatible on PS5, as should your DualShock 4 controller. - AuthorPosts
