    I’m not impressed how about hooking up with Elon Musk and his industry leading technology as it relates to neuralink so that we can play games with our minds as opposed to a controller

    Hey CNET, ever heard of HD Rumble on Switch? Yeah. Apparently your reviewer has never heard of it. Oh and that speaker? Hmmm, I wonder where that came from haha you should give Nintendo a little credit cause the Wii had that. Oh and those analog triggers? GameCube had them. Give credit where it is due 🙂 That being said, this controller looks so comfy and Astrobot is a really great new franchise!

      For PS4 games you can use either.

    What’s even more cool is that developers are already embracing the controller and using it in creative ways for immersion. Tells you Sony absolutely nailed it. Sony honestly seems to have absolutely nailed next-gen. Developers seem SO damn excited to be working with the console!
