What do y'all think about the controllers? Will the PS4's touchpad be awesome for Destiny? (and gaming as a whole) Or will the touchpad be a bust? With the X1's controller almost the same as the 360's, except the D-pad, will the X1's controller receive as much praise as the 360's did? Webpage about PS4's controller - http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-57581501-1/sony-everythings-been-tuned-with-ps4-controller/ Still no new info from Sony on the controller. Webpage about X1's controller - http://www.ign.com/wikis/xbox-one/Xbox_One_Controller New info for the X1 controller - [url]http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/06/new-xbox-one-controller-features-detailed[/url] - 6/6/13 [quote]The controller will utilize both invisible reflective technology and LEDs to communicate with the console and Kinect, which will make syncing the devices a simple task. The technology can also be used so that Kinect can pair the controller with the person holding it, so that if a couple of friends were enjoying a multi-player game, the console can configure the split-screen positions based on where each is sitting. The new controller will also feature a low power state to help conserve battery life when it is not in use, so you can rest assured knowing that it won't be needlessly draining energy while watching a movie or when away from the console. Audio delivery through the headset will be a higher quality than what Xbox 360 users have become accustomed to, thanks to an improved data transfer rate between the controller and console. The team claims that communication can even be clearer than when speaking on a telephone.[/quote] IGN just tweeted this new info from Major Nelson. It brings new insight on the Xbox one controller.

No more annoying seating arrangements when it comes to split screen with friends. It also will help it sync better.

[/quote] Now the batteries can last even longer with the new info released. That is one thing that always bugged me, wasting battery while watching a movie. but will we be able to customize how long till the controller goes into this low power state?

A lot of people use headsets, so its exciting to know that you will have a more clear audio.
