the joycons are bad and imo the switch is nearly unplayable without the pro controller. i haven't had any issues with the reliability on any of my controllers on the 3 platforms. the ds4's dpad has greatly frustrated me in tetris effect because it's so goddamn mushy

i have a lite, i find it fine to play its just the build quality on the sticks im wary of.

joycons have a severe fault in every model, they will drift, it is a when not if. xbone pads its more of an if but they have had a higher rate of stick faults since the 360 and its still not been fixed for some reason. ds4 dpad is good.

While I appreciate the effort, that doesn't really make much sense since Halo Infinite will be finished long before Bethesda releases any Xbox/PC exclusive titles.

Yea the old style jRPGs. And it doesn't necessarily need to be PS, just bring back Reiko Kodama to make another exclusive AAA RPG like she did with Skies of Arcadia. She's one of the most wasted talents from the Sega years IMO and someone needs to throw money at her to make a game.

And yes PSO2 is out for Xbox/PC and probably Xbox Series X, thanks to MS throwing money at that game to bring it over here when nobody else would. They're also putting out some sort of revamp, "New Genesis." I hope they keep it up with Sega IP. Honestly they should've bought Sega during the OG Xbox days.

If this means a remaster of either Skies of Arcadia or Jet Set Radio Future, I am okay with it. Couldn’t give a poo poo about Sonic.

The Shock Blue Xbox Series X/S controller is five dollars more than the standard controller. $64.99. Sega was formed in 1964. What could it all mean?

PSO2 is supposedly getting some kind of facelift next year. It’s a weird game and I think I’d enjoy it way more on the couch rather than in front of my PC.

Is there an article with good info on the lower latency of controller inputs on the Series X that Microsoft is claiming? Or is it all unsourced snake oil like cloud computing?

Hm. This seems cool and all, but it sounds like the Elite controller I was hoping to carry over from using with my One X isn’t going to take advantage of this new stuff. What a bummer. I guess there’ll be a Series 3 soon enough.

vvv Oh. Dope.
