[QUOTE="AmazonTreeBoa"][QUOTE="Desmonic"] Dat butthurt :cool:Desmonic

Dat sad ass dodge attempt :lol:

 

You keed crying about me dodging something when I didn't even try to answer your argument, just made an observation. But okay, let's go down that road.

 

 

Your argument = destroyed.

http://uk.ign.com/articles/2012/10/16/wii-u-pro-controller-boasts-80-hour-battery-life

 

80 hours. Yeah, batteries have come a very long way since 2005. AA batteries, not so much.

Bu-bu-but.. recharging! :cry: Talk about a f*ckin non-issue :lol: Bu-bu-but cable is short! :cry: Just connect it to your damn PC or laptop when not using them and voila! Always playing with a charged battery! Unless of course you play for some 8-10 hours straight everyday lol

Ah the wonders of technology! If only Sony and Nintendo would share their secrets to the world!!

Your stupidity astounds me. We are talking about the PS4 and X1, not the Wii U. And I have 2500mah rechargeable batteries. My point stands (as does your ignorance). I am clearly talking to a kid with your "butthurt" and "crying" :cry: comments. You kids are funny how you think everybody has the same mentality as you and gets upset over games. Fact is, if I am playing a game with a controller that takes batteries, all I have to do is pause and change the batteries and continue to stay wireless. If you are playing a game on the PS4 controller, you have to buy a second controller in order to stay wireless. This isn't my opinion, it is a fact.

[QUOTE="Murderstyle75"][QUOTE="RR360DD"]

"The battery itself is a non-removable lithium-ion power source."

How can you replace it if you can't remove it?

:cool:

RR360DD

Oh but I'm sure it's removable. If it can be assembled, it can be disassembled and third party battery companies will be jumping all over a replacement battery. Just wait until all the 12 year olds release their DIY YouTube videos. They always do.

Sooo ... you have to take the whole controller apart

Dualshock4_05.jpg8e961f95-fcc5-4e2f-96e9

:lol:

Cows get more and more desperate by the day

Except for I'm not a cow. And yes. You take the controller apart. According to you, the controller needs replacement. I open it occasionally when my kids get the buttons sticky. One thing I have never needed to do though was replace a battery whether it was for the DS3 or 360 Play & Charge. But now days, Lems are very much Cows and love to be milked. I think its time the definitions were switched up to represent 2013.

QQ more. "Facts" lol

Or he could just get a job so he doesn't play so long as to where his controller dies in the first place. They stay charged for a very long time. But if nine tenths of your life is spent with a gamepad in your hand, you might run into problems.

Umm he reacted to your reply like anybody would.

$25 (for a rechargeable battery pack)<$55-60 (for a new controller) he made a valid critisism and you acted like he was lying or something.

what was the criticism exactly? that over time batteries loose their charge? or that in fact there is a chance that they might just stop working altogether? 

 

 I reacted like anyone who knew you can change the internal batteries of the controller would, I'm not accusing him of lying thats your inference not mine i was just making light of that fact. keep reaching though..

OMG WITH THAT SIG :roll:

anyway aside from that annoying sig,   the xbox controller offers wifi-direct which is superior to Blutooth, can output dolby digital 5.1 surround sound via 3.5mm thanks to wifi direct, and Shape.    I dont think the DS4 can do that due to the bandwidth limitation of blutooth.   The controller is far superior to anything you have ever experienced.   # dealwithit

more improvements for the xbox one controller over the 360 controller

 

'The Xbox One audio chat headset now streams 24 kHz at a 16-bit resolution uncompressed both downstream and upstream compared to the Xbox 360 headset that streamed 16 kHz downstream and 8 kHz upstream at a 14-bit resolution compressed

Please do not cry. MS waste 100 million and inferior controller. 360 controller is fine, money could have spent on buy more exclusive instead of turd like Ryse. You think with 100 million dollar they use modern battery technology, but nope. Lemming have to be milked like always. :lol: Ugly controller, no innovation, old technology. Only improvement is rumbler trigger? Maybe change name to gbox, for gimmick.

They should have used the money toward Xbone instead :lol: what a waste.

...and the fact that they used that amount toward a controller design is really stupid, it looks so basic.

DS4 is for people with "girly" hands???

That was one of the lems biggest complaints, that the DS3 was too small.

It looks like the X1 gets the small controller for "girly" handed people this time.

So for all you week handed lems that couldn't handle a DS3, you may be in trouble.

At least I think they got rid of the proprietary cable.

And they are going to pay for all that money spent, one way or another. Just wait and see. If there is something you gotta love about M$ first party games, its the DLC costs. The only one that has remained fair is Halo. Forza has two seperate packages, Season Pass and VIP yet buying both still doesn't give you all the content. Then you have Gears of War. Keep in mind that Epic Games fought Tooth & Nail to keep all their content free of charge just like all their Unreal games. Now not only were they given the good ole Hot Carl but then they forced them to lock content on disc and sell it for ridiculous prices with things like weapon skins for $45 even after the partially disc locked season pass. I expect this trend to become even worse this coming gen.
