Dualshock 4 wins, it's the ultimate controller, and everyone that got to try both seemed to agree on that

X1 controller superior. Love that it supports 5.1 from the pad, ds4 looks like dogs hit compared to it. All agree on neogaf

Honestly they both look really nice and much improved. I am interested a bit more with the rumble triggers and accurate depth feedback on the X1. That has to be pretty cool to feel!

X1 controller gracefully takes the crown of greatest controller ever from his older brother X360 controller.

I love how everyone is stating their next gen controller preference here when the vast majority of people on this forum haven't even held one...The Xbox One controller will more than likely be great due to only slight modifications made to an existing gem. The DS4 on the other hand is almost completely redesigned compared to the DS3, I personally can't wait to try it out and see how it compares. Going by press releases and public reviews, it seems that the DS4 is a game changer compared to the DS3.

Both look great, massive improvement from the DS3 so much kudos to Sony for that. However them stick placements are not for me so with the rumble triggers, the XBO controller is the slight winner IMO. For those transitioning from Xbox 360 to PS4 though Will not have too many issues with the DS4 me thinks.

I think it is twice sexier than the X1 controller, but it will no doubt not be suited to my large hands.

Do people really like the looks of DS4? Looks like someone with a duct tape, a flashlight, a touchpad and some other random crap went crazy with it. All kind of bumps and stuff sticking out. It doesn't look slick that's for sure.

Yeah it looks too wide and really weird to be honest

The Xbox one controller does look very sexy, however it seem like they fiddled with the triggers and analog a wee bit, either way i think the rumble triggers should be a nice added feature.

The Dualshock4 seem to fix a lot of the complaints its little brother had, and the touchpad is a nice added feature for extended inputs, since owning a vita, i have come to appreciate touch inputs (try playing Dragons Crown on PS3 and Vita and see why), also it seem there is a textured grip behind the controller which is cool and finally, the highly coveted triggers

megaspiderweb09

They both seem very well designed and constructed. Appearance wise, I'd give the edge to the XBone controller (even though I think the LED on the DS4 is really cool).

Looking at features, the DS4 all the way. The touchpad and speaker are definitely nice additions that edge the rumble triggers (a good addition on MS' part). There's just a longer list of potential applications for the DS4's features. 

As for responsive, we'll have to wait and see.

Just one question: we can clearly see that the battery in the XBone controller is internal. Why didn't they just include a litiom ion battery? They are really inexpensive these days.

There's always one hermit who does this... This thread has nothing to do with PCs, it's about "nex-gen" controllers (feeling left out). SMH!

 

On topic: From the look of X1 controller it seems to have better face buttons and joysticks, for everything else I prefer the DS4.

X1 controller, plus it's going to have aggressive for feedback built into the triggers, I imagine the DS4 force feedback will be dainty like the DS3's. The DS4 also hasn't fixed their trigger design which was an issue with me, the buttons slope downwards instead of concave so the finger don't fits into it, and the controller can't lie down without the buttons hitting the surface unlike the XB controller. But at least they finally ditched their convex analog tips.

They both look like stellar designs but I will reserve judgement until I've played with both of them extensively. People stating they like one over the other without hands-on experience are rubes.

Right now I'd give it to the DS4, with the advantage of the trigger rumble going to microshaft. I'm still quite dubious of their d-pad, I just don't know how they can fvck that one up so often. Hopefully it won't feel terrible like all the rest they've offered. Both controllers look great, the only real question should be, which console would you rather play on?

The DS4 looks miles better to me, the xbox one looks worse than a 360 controller. Will see when I actually hold both. But by just looking at them I like the DS4, to me it looks like an improved 360 controller. A mix of the 360 controller and the DS3 if you will.

The XboxOne controller looks amazing. Ps4, well I have my doubts. I have never used a comfortable PS controller. I dont understand how anyone could say the DS3 was even close to being on as good as 360s let alone better.

Both seem like great controllers. I really don't care about the new Xbox One rumble feature because I keep rumble turned off anyways. I don't really care much about the touchpad on the DS4 either. It may have some practical use but using it mainly for menus seems kinda dumb.

 

If you've been playing games for long enough, it doesn't matter what damn controller you're using. Some of my favorite moments in gaming was done with a damn N64 controller.

Nice headlight. Must be so confusing to remember which is controller 1. Anywho, the DS4 looks like Madcatz made it to be sold in Dollar stores.

Are you serious?

Yeah thats how the controller looks to me. I like how the analog sticks look on the DS4, they remind me of the 360 ones. And this time they are further apart which should make the controller very comfortable to hold when playing FPS. I never had a problem with the DS3, but improvements are always welcome. Also the way you hold the controller, and how it fits in your palms looks similar to how one would hold the 360 controller. But the DS4 is much slimmer in that regard, the 360 controller is great to hold, but I always thought it was a bit bulky. Mainly where your middle, and ring finger sit is where I think improvements could be made. The design of the DS4 looks like it could fix that. 

I think this picture shows the improvements quite well 

ps4-controller-vs-ps3-controller-580-75.

As for the xbox one I'm not really feeling the over all design, and shape of the controller. And rumble triggers does not sound like something I would welcome, but I can see why people would welcome a feature like that. Also I dont like the idea of my LB/RB being more like trigger buttons this time around.
