There was a poll that was conducted by Valve a while back that showed controller/gamepad usage on the rise. Shortly afterward, Valve had been asking developers to consider adding gamepad support to their games, even if it wasn't originally planned.

It's not just my article. I've been playing PC games with a KBM for over 20 freaking years. But I'm not so ignorant to think that others can't use what they want. If you think that way, that's all you and that's fine. I know plenty of "gaming pros" (I hate that word) that use a gamepad and...

You tell that to the fighting game pros who compete at the highest levels such as Winter Brawl, Evo and etc, that play on pad. I'm talking about Punk, MenaRD, Snake Eyez, Takeuchi, Phenom, Infexious, just to name a few. It comes down to preference, and the character that's being used. Hell...

Because Because one of the selling points for PC gaming is you can use whatever controller you want. Don't like the controller, don't use one. Hell, I use KBM and controller for various games. Maybe someone coming from console prefers a controller. That's like asking why people are now using...

I'm not willing to find out.

Yeah, it was pretty alarming finding this out and researching it a bit. While the one Tomshardware received was loud, the one I was able to purchase has been whisper quiet. Still, for Sony to not be upfront about this, well that's crap.

I agree 100% percent! In fact, I created a video that (hopefully) hammers down several reasons why I feel Sony needs to be on board with this.

There's a delicate balancing when it comes to noise on consoles. Unlike most computers, consoles are front in center in living rooms, and it can become a distraction depending on the noise and placement of the console. Points to the PS4 Pro. I wouldn't mind seeing a bump in the fan speed and...

The last few pieces I've written for Tomshardware was regarding DualSense support in Steam, however, a new update to DS4Windows has enabled Windows 10 support. Meaning that games installed via Battle.net, GOG, Epic Games Store, and even Steam, can use the DualSense controller. Yes, even without...

Are you looking to add the space to the PC in question or would an enclosure or NAS also be in the cards? I ask, since maybe adding a NAS would be better for you. More readily available storage and quiet.

This is not 100%. They've already stated they want to support the PC more. As for the official drivers, they're just slow. It took them three years after the DualShock 4 was released before they added native support. And even then, they did so with that USB adaptor. I truly believe that this...

No, there's just one version of each, that was a typo that was corrected.
