Ohhh, that looks nice!
That's a good write-up. I always wanted to get the Steam Controller, but decided to wait for revision 2. Meanwhile I bought the DS4 and I'm pretty happy., True that it doesn't last many gaming sessions without recharging, but I do usually recharge after every second or third time I use it, so it's okay. I have heard that people actually mod the DS4 to double it's battery capacity. Maybe if the capacity deteriorates further, I'd look into that too.I missed out on the controller talk, but I feel like writing a little about it since I own all three controllers.
I'm excluding Xbox controller since well, I don't own it and Ihatedislike Microsoft with a passion.
Dualshock 4
I've been using DS4 the longest and it's the controller I'm most familiar with since I've been using Dualshocks since the PS2 days. What I like the most about DS4 is the D-pad and the face buttons. It's rather difficult to accidentally press the wrong directional button or the face buttons, compared with the Steam Controller, for example. I am the most comfortable with its form factor, mostly because of muscle memory and the size of my hands. As you might have guessed, the battery life on this controller is horrendous. If you have seen people actually buying multiple DS4s to last them more than a few hours of gaming, I can confirm that their reason is warranted.
Switch Pro
This is the newest controller I own. Having asymmetric analog sticks threw me out of the loop at first, but after a bit of adjustment period, I don't have an issue with it. The grips (or its lack thereof) on the controller is what I had more problem with since I'm used to the grips on the DS4 and Steam Controller (especially the one on Steam Controller since it fits perfectly in my hands). The start/select (or whatever it's called on Nintendo platform) feels like it has been recessed enough where most of the times I can't tell if I already pressed it or not until the action is reflected on the screen/game. Other than that, it is a pretty decent controller. The best thing about this controller is its battery life. And I'm not just saying this because I hardly use it, but it can actually go multiple days for 2-3 hours of gaming each day for at least a week on a single charge. I can never say the same about the DS4.
Steam Controller
This controller is easily the most versatile controller I ever come across. The programmability and the pads on this thing made it the best all-around controller I ever used. What I dislike about the controller are its face buttons. It's too easy to press the wrong button because of the combination of its size and space between them, which I thought was quite small, compared with DS4 which I thought was perfect. and while I can understand why it's the way it was, I feel it's something which can be addressed in its next revision. Apart from that, it's the controller I'd like to use for playing most games. There was definitely a learning period to actually utilise its programmability to the fullest and committing the pads into muscle memory, but once this period is over, you can use this controller for almost anything.
I preferred the DS3 in just about every way.

That's an odd thing to metion re internet connection.
i haven't found it boring yet but it is a lot less interesting since you're so overpowered and you can't try different weapons or anything
We just don't know but it's easy to think that Ubisoft won't return after the 12-month exclusivity deal so it will remain as a Co-exclusive forever. BUT nothing is confirmed.
It's worth mentioning that the fuck up is more on Kotaku's editor than anyone. In a now deleted twitter post Laura explained that the editor changed the initial wording to something much more definitive, and the same editor published the unfinished draft before Atlus responded.
I rarely dive deep into the controller setup myself and mostly use whatever user-made profile is the most popular (and then modify those if needed).
You just say that because you just want to see the world burn, and see Joker and Bane as role models.
@lashman, don't go killing people like @Digoman
Ah ah ah!oops, too late
Ah ah ah!
I was reading your reply, and I was like "what the hell is lashman saying to me"?
This is embarrassing. Yesterday, I started typing that reply regarding Digoman before going to bed, and forgot to delete the text when I posted earlier.
Now, out of context and without a quote, it sounds completely random.
(that thing is surprisingly usable)
random controller talk? time to post random controller collection...
I believe every game needs the fitting "weapon" of choice
Yeah, they probably have an outdated listing.
I still use 360 pads, and that has been my problem.
Ops."Wireless dong" you say?
Ops.
I meant "dongle".
English being a second language, coupled with a bad night of sleep, equals disaster.
I'll have to avoid writing anything for a couple of hours more.
