PS4 Controller Supposedly Works With Xbox 360

A YouTube user has posted a video claiming that the DualShock 4 controller works with Xbox 360 consoles.

Lalanana3825d ago (Edited 3825d ago )

Lol.. cool. why would anyone want that too? relearn in game the button functions too?

cleft53825d ago

This is too hilarious. At the same time it is so odd, but it's also really cool technology as well. Even my 360 is hyping me for the PS4 now. Too good.

Baylex3825d ago

LOL this is too funny ahah
Imagine if DualShock 4 works on the X1?? ahah Sony would sell controllers like hot cakes

gaffyh3825d ago

If true, expect MS to block it in their next update. They aren't in the business of making their competitors money, and Sony would do the same if the Xbone controller works on PS3 or PS4.

What are you talking about? Microsoft is already going to pay for the Blu-ray royalties, just as they did for the DVD royalties on the original Xbox.

mikeslemonade3825d ago (Edited 3825d ago )

Finally I got my answer. I proposed this question a couple days ago. Too bad I'm done playing current gen to try this out.

And controllers are too expensive now. I usually go solo for a while when I get the launch system. Especially now when I can just go online for multiplayer. Local multiplayer is pretty weak these days

FamilyGuy3825d ago (Edited 3825d ago )

Surprised it doesn't work natively, without the workarounds this guy is using.

The DS4 is like any other 3rd party controller once plugged in. Just like how it works on PC and is easily/instantly recognized as a controller.

I never thought about this till now but it makes perfect sense.

Eh? They could use it for beat em ups? The d-pad on the DS4 is brilliant.

smoothop3825d ago

If you're into beat em ups just use an arcade stick, both d-pads are crap for fighters its that simple.

OlgerO3825d ago

Dont you think that it is great that xbox 360 users can now experience the greatest controller ever made ?

Gazondaily3825d ago

Well hold your horses there. 'the greatest controller ever made'? Maybe in your opinion but lets not get too far ahead of ourselves.

Codey473825d ago

Septic, pissing on peoples bonfires since 2011 :P

Rayansaki3825d ago

@Septic, at the very least they now have a proper controller to play fighting games...

s8anicslayer3825d ago

Also a better build quality than the 360 controller as well.

THamm3825d ago (Edited 3825d ago )

Wonder why he's not testing the sticks? I think the X1 d-Pad has microswitches which would be great for fighters...

MasterCornholio3825d ago

For fighting games?

We all know how horrible the Xbox 360s Dpad is for those sorts of games.

Nexus 7 2013

sigfredod3825d ago

Finally a good d-pad for fighting games on the xbox360

isarai3825d ago

i would for improved d-pad

i can tell you for a fact that MS is going to patch the crapppp out of this. still the coolest thing ever regardless. theres also a video of the controller working with mac, which means theres solid workarounds to make it also work with PC.

you could literally use 1 controller for 4 different platforms.

Mikelarry3825d ago

i doubt ms will care because if they can allow the xbox one to work with the ps4 i don't see them caring for this.

MASTER_RAIDEN3825d ago

completely different situation though. MS will not lose any money on having the xbone work with ps4. they WILL potentially lose a lot of money if a ps4 controller works with their console though.

OrangePowerz3825d ago

That wouldn`t be a good idea, because that would mean they patch out every wired controller support. It works because the PS4 controller is recognized as a generic controller, the same reason why it works on PC, Mac and PS3.

s8anicslayer3825d ago

It would be cool if it did actually work though.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5063d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905063d ago (Edited 5063d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5063d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5063d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495063d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5063d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5063d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
