Is ps4 controller as good as xbox one for FPS?

I am wondering how did you find the ds4.Is it good for FPS games?Is it better than xbox one?

Better. The triggers on the bone sucks bad.

@pankar94: X1 feels much better in my hands.i don't play FPS much though, but mouse/keyboard combo destroys both

Ewww, controller for FPS!

They're both pretty good for fps but i prefer the ds4 as the triggers are better for shooters. My housemate is an avid xbox fan and even he admits he prefers to play shooters on ps4

I've only used a DS4 at best buy but I didn't like the feel. Joysticks felt cheap and the triggers we're too squishy

Don't use the DS4 if you want rubber pealing off in your hands. While the DS4 feels nice and is Sony best controller to date, the Xbox One controller just fits like a glove. Now take that mastery a step further and get the Elite version.

The problems with the ds4 aren't ergonomic, they're the battery and lightbar.

The ps4 controller just plain sucks, unless you have very small hands. I wear a medium glove and with my thumbs comfortably on the sticks I can't reach the bumpers.

DS4 is the best Sony pad ever but still falls behind Dreamcast, Gamecube, 360 and Xbone controllers.

It does what it needs to do though.

Your hands must be freakishly small then.

Steam controller may be the only exception

Xbox always for FPS just prefer the analog locations don't like Playstations.

Can't wait for the Xbox One Elite Controller!

I never played Xbox One, but DS4 is really good and confortable! I would say it's as solid as 360 controller, and infinitely better than the cheap previous DS models.

maybe , but when I'm laying on couch

Yes it is

Honestly no ... "Triggers" are a minor advantage ... XBOX One analog sticks are far nicer though.

OFc this is cowspot... so no one will be honest with you about it. As a Manticore, I can confirm the Xbox one controller is better.... only idiots care about triggers more than the actual analog sticks.... its not fkin hard to press any back buttons to shoot... but aiming/movement being fine tuned is much more important.

Dual Shock analog sticks are pretty bad.... not as bad as previous ones mind you, but not as good as Xbox Controllers. (any of them)

TC has like three accounts.

Not even close. Also its battery is straight garbage.

That only happened with the initial batch of DS4's, happened to my launch controller, but my other controllers that have seen more use are still perfectly fine and the rubber is still completely in tact.

This.

i love the XBOX ONE controller but man, those triggers are the worst.

Better, the triggers aren't slanted crap like the Xbox One controller and the bumpers aren't the worst thing ever.

@pankar94: All opinions, I personally find the X1 controller to be better for everything in general, it's my favorite. The DS4 is incredibly solid though, never had an issue with it, either should be fine for a shooter.

The DS4 is worse than the XB1 controller in every way possible.

Correct me if I am wrong.
DS4:
-better analogs
-better bumpers
-better buttons
-ok triggers
Xbox One:
-better analog placement(more comfortable in hand)
-better triggers(But I think than more important in racing games)what else?

I am not talking about material quality.

@pankar94 Listen to @MBirdy88 he's being completely honest.

My point of view

Yep, the analog sticks. that's why I got an Xbox1 controller for PC instead.

Playing Bloodborne with PS4 controller analog sticks after playing Dark Souls with an X1 controller pretty much made me hate the damn things.

Use l1/r1 to aim/shoot and its better than Xbone controller. So good that its 'almost' better than 360's controller.

I prefer the X1 controller but its not a night/day thing. The DS4 is a great controller. I can play with it easily. Triggers on X1 are better imo.

Hmm, one thing I actually like about the PS4 analog sticks is that they feel tight and responsive, that may be just me though. And the D-Pad for 2D games is fantastic. But the melting grips is just embarrising. The DS4 needs some improvements like protruding options/share buttons, a seperate low brightness LED to let you know the controller is on, so you can disable the light bar when need be.

I haven't got an Xbox One so I won't say anything on behalf of it, but I like the 360 controller a lot, probably my favorite controller of all time.

The only problem with the DS4 is durability. These controllers don't last nearly as long as the DS3 did. Don't expect these things to last even a year without noticeable wear and tear if you're heavily using them. Everything else is fine. It's extremely comfortable for FPS games, definitely a huge step over the DS3. Even a lot of the MLG Call Of Duty players(who've played on Xbox for years) say they like the PS4 controller better. Battery life isn't an issue as long as you plug it in while you're not playing it. Also the Share button and built in 3.5" audio jack are really nice features.

Do yourself a favor and get some Kontrol Freeks though. They save the rubber on the base analogs and the extra height/grip is nice for FPS games.

PS4 controller feels more rugged for me like the 360 controller.

XBone controller feels like a plastic kids toy i can't stand it i literally cant

ths ps4 brings me back tto days like snes/n64/360 beefy fun controllers

xbone feels like a cheap tiger hand held im done with my xb1 only for exclusives.

Hell no! Lots a lying a** cows in here. That DS4 is cheap sh*t.

Replace the DS4 sticks with X1 and you're golden. But standard was fine, if not for the deterioration of the DS4 sticks.

For sure. It's a decent controller.

Xbox One Controller>PS4 Duelshock: Only good for FPS only.

PS4 Duelshock>Xbox One Controller: Good for everything else but not FPS.

Xbone controller is like a fisher price toy. AA batteries and all.

I haven't used the X1 pad enough to make an honest judgement.

Honest question: do those with both prefer the X1 pad to the 360? The little I've played with the X1 pad felt a bit awkward compared the the 360 pad, but I knew that could be getting used to the sticks, ect.

as a owner with both i can confirm the xb1 controller feels "Ligher" and plasticier than the ps4 while holding both up in the air

people like kings and some other on here don't understand the differences between xb1 controller and the 360

the 360 controller is 4x as heavy and sturdy as the xb1 just a fact of life

the xb1 controller is nothing like the 360 thats ntoher fact

I have both and I prefer the PS4 controller, except for the battery live. Those AA batteries (LOL) in the Xbox One controller actually last longer than the rechargeable lithium battery in the PS4 controller.

If you're a PC gamer then this what you use for first person shooters:

It does what it needs to do though.

I can't take you seriously. LOL, but do go ramble on, please.

go insert some more aa batteries into a controller made in 2013

rechargeable batteries have been the normal for a fucking decade a literal decade this isn't the 90's this isn't niche anymore this is the real world were living in

the batteries recharge now a days kings thats just how technology evolves

You won't perform worse with it as it's not a worse controller. It will all come down to preference. Personally I like the Xbox One's controller more. The placement of the sticks, the feel of the sticks, and the amazing triggers win me over.

Coming from mainly playing console FPS on the 360 last gen, it took me some time to get used to the DS4. I have relatively small hands, and after adjusting my grip such that my pinky, ring, and middle finders wrap around the handles I grew to prefer the ergonomics of the DS4 to the 360 and X1's controllers. Other than general comfort, I find the analog sticks to be more precise on the DS4 (the X1's controller has noticeable dead zones, and seem looser to me) and easier to click for sprinting. As well, the triggers feature a shorter pull, which I prefer. I also appreciate that the DS4 is quieter than the X1 controller, which is too "clicky" in my opinion.

On the downside, I find my left thumb sometimes slips off of the DS4's left analog stick when sprinting. What's more, the shoulder buttons seem awkwardly positioned, and strain my index fingers slightly when pressed. Of course the battery life is poor (I use a charging dock w/ 2 controllers to remedy this issue), and I could honestly do without the touch pad, speaker, and light.

I'll take AA's over the shitty PS4 battery life.
