MODERATORS
I mean thank fuck, they at least do that for their most expensive controller. Maybe they should just stop scamming us, and use "hall effect sensing joysticks" too.
Any controller with hall effect sensor in the PlayStation format?
Gulkit said they will do it, but I'm not sure, if it's anything available yet.
Will check it out.
What do you mean by Playstation format? PS compatible?
i presume they mean inline v offset analog sticks
I have an issue with the Xbox style joystick placement, would prefer them to be placed symmetrical like in PS controllers.
Hall effect sticks arent exactly perfect. Its a tradeoff, one I think is worth it, but definitely a tradeoff.
What are the downsides?
Look at his post history, he seems to have a weird mistrust of magnets and believes they could just all turn off one day
hahahaha
Not seeing that, did they delete it?
He was joking. xD
