What are the best option for an Xbox type of control for PS5?

I been thinking about the PS5 because my son wants GoW. I just hate the controller.

Don’t get a PS5 and tell your son to wait a few years for the GOW PC release

I prefer the dualsense over the xb controller.

Marketing kicked up a gear. Hype is getting to me.

Better First Party IMO.
Better Third party because they get all the Western and Japanese games
Also VR which is an instant win for me.

If MS close the deal with Activision Blizzard King then I can see alot of people needing both consoles but for now I think PS5 is the clear winner.

I personally prefer the Xbox ecosystem, abd therefore, the X over the 5. However 1 clear advantage the PS5 and PC has that usually has me buying games for it over my Xbox is the fact that the expandable memory is WAY less expensive.

 

[moonman818]

Spider-Man and the Upcoming Wolverine game are enough for me to get a ps5 over xbox

I think a PC and PS5 is a solid combo. PC will have most everything XBOX has plus some PS exclusives like Spider-Man, GOW etc. You can add an xbox series s if it drops to 150 to round out ( or buy a used one). Enjoyable experience no matter what folks tell you.

Dbrand released some retro color plates for the PS5:

Sony needs to come with the controller colors

 

[Bad Religion]

NT PlayStation community is also way better than the Xbox community.

Lawless brigands over there.

This gets you everything if you're willing to go the emulator route for Switch games.

problem with the Switch Emulator is it ain't perfect yet. other than that, Yeah. I remember when we used to use PS emulator back in the day. it was fun considering I didn't have a PS and my friends have it. my brother on the otherhand has a dreamcast. I had a basic home pc and NES. and our eldest was more into outdoor activities.

Haven’t finished but loving what I’ve played so far in XVI demo. The flow of the battle system is smooth and the storyline is pretty fire. I need to start over again, I was fried earlier and only remember being blown away by the cinematically.

I’ve also been hearing Lies of P is the game we’ve been waiting for since Bloodborne release. Will play that demo next before XVI RD.

Yea, I heard its hard to get running sometimes but seeing TOTK at 4K/60, it's probably worth trying to get it running than playing on Switch. Either that or wait for Switch 2.

Might have to play some of this game on PSVR 2 for the cinematics on a big screen.

Also saw the live stream for Max for the Lies of P demo and he was impressed. It's also being downloaded over a million times but I feel like the FFXVI overshadowed it.

Lawyers are amazing though.

Oh, that Xbox exec sent that all the way in 2019. Everything's totally changed since then.
