So many things have me curious about this controller and many have been answered on the PlayStation Blog article. However, the one thing they left out was the size, how big is it?
@Unspoken Actually the silhouette of the handles (and only the handles) reminds me of the original PS3 controller design. Remember the boomerang? Yes just the handles but still they are more gently and deliberately curved to fit your hand than even the DS4 controller. Meanwhile the XO and XO Elite controllers curve at the shoulders and then keep a very flat line through to the bottom of the hand-grip. This seems to be the case with Series X' controller as well.
This obvious difference very clearly differentiates the silhouette of the two brands controllers.
Only the grip style looks like xb. Obviously the stick / button layout remains DS. And its not downplaying if it actually is a positive that it brings the best of both into one.
Stop f’n crying. No one is going to downplay anything. The design is looking more and more like the Xbox Controller in shape and size (it is getting bigger).
No one said it as a negative (except a few trolls).
Yeah, the look is the look...typical modern game controller. It's the guts of this thing that are innovative. We haven't seen this sort of mechanical feedback capability outside of the racing wheel market.
Good size comparison, not much bigger than DS4 it seems
