I get it, but whatever is being done in the PC ecosystem isn't really solving the problem either. The last bastion of cheating in the console space is 3rd party controllers. Banning them is going to be way more effective than any anti cheat software.

If I was using an unapproved controller I'd probably be pissed, but how big is that market outside of people cheating? Aren't most 3rd party controllers approved devices anyways?
