It’s a known fact that the PS4 hardware team had visited a lot of studios–internal and third party–to design the DualShock 4, and considering Bungie was contacted too, things are looking good for FPSs on the system.


“Sony’s hardware team was great. They contacted us early in the process to get feedback on the DualShock 4,” Parsons said.


“We make action games, and our feedback was simple. We wanted to make sure that the DS4 really paired up well with Destiny’s gameplay. For us, that meant the controller needed to feel more substantial, and triggers needed to be concave.”


The controller sports a good feel and has reduced lag, which is very much important for first person shooters. It looks like the company has taken all the DualShock 3 criticisms in mind and have designed a controller which accommodates all types of gamers.

I don't know I really didn't have a problem with the DualShock 3. But they reworked it a bit.

Whats the deal with concave triggers? For real, I don't think I have noticed any difference... Then again I never really played that many FPSs on 360... Could someone enlighten me?!?

I'm fine with the new layout. It's a potential improvement, I just certainly hope they maintain R/L 1 as the shoot/aim. I don't want to use those damn triggers for that.

This demonstrates how serious Sony takes its console and it's gamers. They contacted the different studios, and ask for their feedback. I don't believe Microsoft do this, even if they do it, this demonstrates and shuts the fuck up, people who say that Sony just wants the money.
