DualShock 4 & PS4 Hands-on Testing and Review

A honest gamers review regarding the DS4 controller, and a look at the PS4 upclose.

Lboogieskells4272d ago (Edited 4272d ago )

I concur, the most comfortable controller I've ever used.

pedrof934272d ago

Omg the console is simply beautiful.

I wish that when they release the slim version (eventually) the console design remains unchanged.

I think it's usually spelt *beaut.

Dee_914272d ago

Okay.It just hit me like a ton of bricks that next gen consoles are less than a month away......

HOLY FU%#%NG S#1T!!!

SonyNGP4272d ago (Edited 4272d ago )

Sorry 7akoom, bas I can't take the "honest gamer's review" thing seriously, knowing your bias nature.

But regardless, the DualShock 4 is definitely a huge step-up from its predecessor, and I would definitely consider it one of my favorites, if not my favorite.

Edit: I never said I haven't ;)

Hakoom4272d ago

i respect your opinion
we all have opinions..
but iam 100% positive on this
when you try the DS4 you will just fall in love with it :)

FamilyGuy4272d ago

Oh crap, I just realized you're THE Hakoom, it's great to hear that such a dedicated trophy hunter thinks so highly of the controller. I've heard lots of positive reviews but one coming from someone that plays games as much as you has a lot more weight than those others.

Thanks!

I'll be looking for the kiosk in the games stores around me too when they get them in.

-Alpha4272d ago

Thanks for your feedback. How did you feel about Dualshock 3? There are so many people this gen who were so stubborn about the Dualshock 3 being "perfect". They refused to hear any criticism about it and acted as if Dualshock 3 didn't need improvements.

Can you ever go back to DS3? It seems DS4 is a whole different quality, and I'm hoping people who were bashing the critics can see now how great the DS4 is, and why exactly Sony needed to change it

Yo Mama4272d ago (Edited 4272d ago )

Hakoom, I was just wondering if you have a job. This isn't an insult so please don't take it that way. You said you play everyday so I was just wondering if you have to make time for games in between working or are you so well off that you don't have to work? Thanks.

Hakoom4272d ago

you asked a question its fine
my job is youtube and some stuff with trophies which net me enough money to buy new games

Blackdeath_6634272d ago

hang on is this the guy with the most PSN trophies WORLDWIDE?! he should get a job as a games tester

slazer1014272d ago

All those trophies and not a plus member. Shame on you.

Blackdeath_6634272d ago

oh wow didn't even realise you were in this comment section. will you be importing the PS4 or will you wait for it to launch in Bahrain?

Game tester position is probably one of the worst in the gaming industry. Most of it is through 3rd party contractors so you get no benefits. Also you're not really playing games like most people would. You'll be performing a specific task like a billion times and reporting it each time.

It's a horrible job and pays shit.

That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.

...the VR aspect in 7 IS the redeeming quality.

Abriael1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

what a dumb take.

Ace Combat 7 is one of the best games of the past generation. It doesn't need VR gimmicks to "redeem" it.

TheColbertinator1d ago

I have enjoyed nearly every single Ace Combat to death (except that helicopter shooting one) and have never needed VR once to enjoy it greatly

PapaBop15h ago

^^^ I'm guessing you've never actually tried it in VR then? VR elevates games like this way beyond just a gimmick, just ask any GT fan who owns a PSVR 2. You may not need VR to have a good time but it's an absolute game changer and something that shouldn't be dismissed as a gimmick.

S2Killinit15h ago(Edited 15h ago)

@Abriael
Spoken like someone who never played it. But who are we kidding. We know why VR hate. No one is fooled here.

Abriael14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

@PapaBop: I tried it in VR before any of you ever did, since the game wasn't even out yet. It's a gimmick, disjointed from the AC7's main gameplay and far removed from its best parts.

It's nothing more than a limiting factor, as Ace Combat's most complex missions require hardware power to be focused on other things. That's why the VR missions are very basic.

If you think Ace Combat's strengths are even close to the platform it's on, VR or non-VR, you obviously aren't an Ace Combat fan.

In any case, I suggest you folks prepare yourself for disappointment. There's a reason why the VR gimmick was never expanded, and it's that, besides a few fanatics who care for evangelizing their VR fad more than they care for the franchise, no one gave a flying F.

The developers are going to use the resources to make the whole game better for everyone instead.

VR was the best thing that happened to Ace Combat. You kidding?

yeastori13h ago

VR is perfect for this type of game wdym

Abriael12h ago

It's a perfect way to limit this type of game.

CrimsonWing691d 9h ago

Look, I’m a simple man. I see Ace Combat and say, “Yes!”

Abnor_Mal1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.

yeastori13h ago

I just want them to remaster AC4 and AC5, a new AC with better more realistic looking world and planes would be great too
