Both my Dualsense have issues already with hardly any use so no way I would pay £210 unless QC is massively improved. Same goes for the Xbox Elite.
Maybe there should be a subscription service for replacement stick modules for hardcore gamers.

They're selling the charging stand on the official page for this, so looks like it'll work fine.

Yeah i don't think even reviews could convince me. It's a fucking controller lol. Unless it has some secret feature to it that blows my mind then forget it.

That's the haptics, gyro, adaptive triggers premium difference, I suppose.HAHAHAHAHA £209!?
Sony are a hoot LMAO!
Xbox Elite Core for just over £100 with some aftermarket paddles. What are Sony thinking?
Hopefully these don't drift as much as the Elite.

Time to move out of Yurop, I know I am. I hear Canada is really nice this time of year.

That's why they have replacement modules on deck to sell ya Neanderthals that abuse your controllers. (joking)Hopefully?
At this price it bloody well better not even think about drifting

only two back triggers...2? 1 for each hundred dollars.
Insane pricing. Good that it has all the same features of elite V2 though. Charging carry case etc. they got some good inspiration there.
Can you replace the triggers? they better be bulletproof.

My Dualsense is the only pad outside of the joycons that have ever drifted on me. Less than 100 hours gameplay, luckily Sony replaced with a new pad free of charge which has been great.
Elite v2 has been hammered and still going strong.
None of those features are premium, especially to the point of a £80 difference.
£600 VR2 inbound.

240 Euros???
Mrs Isabelle Tomatis (Vice President, Brand, Hardware and Peripherals, SIE) probably think that everyone has an monthly wage like what she earns every month.

Can we bring back the $20 back button attachment instead?

That's crazy how varying it is. I have never had drift on any controller from the PS1 to the 360 to the PS4 and 5. Hell, my launch DS4 rubber coating on the left stick wore out and separated from 100's of house into Bloodborne, but no drift. Thankfully they replaced the material shortly after on new controller revisions and that's not an issue any longer.
And I have hundreds of hours into both DuelSense playing games from GT7 to 3rd person adventures, etc..

The back buttons alone are worth it to me. Just bought a Switch and I'm getting an 8bitdo Pro 2 controller for the exact same reason. So yeah.....day one.

Big oof on pricing. Leaves me pessimistic for PSVR2.
Then again, getting milked on accessories has always been the industry MO.

I've never used one with back buttons, but it is sounding temping. What do you mainly map to the back button in each game genre?

Whatever L3 and R3 are because I hate those buttons.

You know what? Same. Now I'm really tempted.

Does anyone else have hand cramps while using the DualSense?
Seriously, never felt that before with a controller. It's very uncomfortable.

Elite Series 2 is $180. The core is $130 but doesn’t include any accessories.

That's why I'd buy a simple back button add on like they did with the DualShock 4.
Not interested in an entire new controller tho.

if VR is close to £600 its dead on arrival. Hope sony hasnt invested too much in games for it. Fucking mental.

What does VR have to do with this? Why is $200 suddenly a crazy price for premium controllers?

Sony are out of control with pricing this gen.
£209 for a controller, my god...
£699 for PSVR2 I'm calling it now.

they'll print money from all the sticks people will need to replace on those.
if you use a PlayStation controller daily to play any competitive shooter on a high level, from my experience you'll have really bad drift after about a year of use.
the fact that these "high quality" controllers don't use Hall-Effect Sensors for their sticks is more than laughable

Hopefully it has less problems than the elite. Good concept. Just sounds like it has too many hardware failures.

Wait until you see the price of the PSVR2
Well it's an upcoming premium accessory. That's what this controller is. If they are charging £210 for a controller then it makes people wonder how much they will charge for a headset.

Its silly that I can't recall which ones I have set on my Elite but for COD I use top two paddles for reload and switch to secondary and bottom paddles for crouch and jump so my thumbs never come off the sticks.
I know you didn't ask me but wanted to weigh in
If its your first elite controller for some (like myself being an old dog) it took me a long time getting used to those paddles, I messed up A LOT so give yourself time
Flip side when my young nephew tried my elite his young brain took to it like a fish to water

I think it's a reasonable price, considering the new features, especially if it lasts twice as long as a regular Dualsense.
Braided cable, lockable connector, custom dead zones, profiles... this controller is pretty sick tbh.

I set it to be one of the face buttons that gets used a lot. The point for me is to make it so I don't have to take my right thumb off of the analog stick controlling the camera in third person games.

I can see that, a new challenge would be fun. Hell, GT7 was the first racing game ever that I manually shifted on the controller. I used to always leave it on auto in racing games (for a controller,) but now I can't ever go back to auto since I have more control with what the car is doing with manual (I can control over and understeer going hard into the corners so much easier like IRL). Better lap times, etc..Its silly that I can't recall which ones I have set on my Elite but for COD I use top two paddles for reload and switch to secondary and bottom paddles for crouch and jump so my thumbs never come off the sticks.

Maybe this is a UK thing cuz the price isn't that far off in the US. For example, Xbox Elite Series 2 is $180. $20 difference.
