Should Sony redesign the PS controller n ...

Should Sony redesign the Playstation controller for the next Gen? Should Sony redesign the PS controller n ...
Maybe not a complete overhaul, but it needs a few changes.Should Sony redesign the PS controller n ...
The only change I would want is the R2 and L2 buttons.
afew minor changes will be made,but the overall design will remain the same.
They should also switch the placement of the d-pad and the left stick.
[QUOTE=''ONLYDOD'']The only change I would want is the R2 and L2 buttons.[/QUOTE]That and add Gamecube like handles instead of the ones they have now.
I want the boomerang controller badly..
needs a major redesign:-more ergonomic-analog placement like the 360-less mashy triggers-stronger rumble -analog sticks need to be smaller and less slippery
The Dual Shock 4 should keep the same basic design with improvements- better analog sticks, better triggers and it should be a little bulkier and more comfortable.
They should have redesigned it already this gen. The traditional dual-shock is, and has always been, an awful controller.
Its ergonomics feels very bad and the placements of the sticks are horrible.

just give it pistol like triggers and it will be my favorite controller.
I guess so. I mean when something from MS is actually better than your product then you know you've done something wrong.
Make it boomerang with abilities of six-axis and rumble!
When I play a game I don't pay attention to the ''ergonomics'' or the feel of the controller.

It does its job and works fine.
Sure, the analogs are a little slippery and not as great as the 360's but I'm not concerned about the controller that much.One of the best controllers I've ever held has to be either the 360's or the Nintendo Gamecube's. Pressing the Z button itself was great fun.I don't think Sony would completely change the controller, and it's quite interesting contemplating whether the Controller is primitive or whether it was just great for the PS1's time.
If it's not broken don't fix it right?It's not as if the Playstation has ever expanded past graphical capabilities, unlike say Nintendo where it moved to heavy reliability on motion sensing (resulting in a complete overhaul of the controller).
Look at the Xbox controller. Very clunky, but when the 360 came around they fixed it up. Unless the next gen does something extraordinary like Virtual Reality Gaming, I only see the controllers getting slight modifications So, in short, Slight modifications will improve it, but I don't want them to completely redesign it.
They don't need a redesign, but they need to make changesA comfortable groove - so the controller fits comfortably in your hand during those long hour play sessionsThe triggers need to be more sturdy and springy - also concave groove so your finger doesn't slide off (this big problem with some racing games)R1 and L1 - needs to be clickable and durableAnalog sticks - needs to be durable with a springy feel, more like 360's analog sticks
The boomerang wasnt half bad when it came to comfort
[QUOTE=''jharv'']Should Sony redesign the Playstation controller for the next Gen? [/QUOTE] The DualShock 2 was accepted by many magazines/gaming sites as the best controller ever. The only issue I have EVER heard regarding the DualSHock 3, is the triggers.I think there great, but, wouldn't mind if they were inverted as well. Other than that, it's fantastic.In fact, the Wii's CLA.SSIC controller uses the DualShcok Twin Analog scheme as well.Remember too, that Sony did plan a new design, but were blasted FOR A LONG TIME as it had a Batarang look.
This is what the next gen PS controller will be like:[img]http://www.modfreak.ch/store/images/wiimote_nunchuk.jpg[/img]Just add a few more buttons, a wireless nunchuk and make it black. Incidentally, if you make it gray instead of black or white, you get what the next gen Xbox controller will be lilke. It's not what I want to happen because, frankly, I don't care. It's just what will happen. Fanboys... Well, just get used to the idea.
I want the boomerangs, dammit!
