I’ll pay 30 more to get out of the 90’s and offset the fucking sticks.
$75 with the stick drift issue a lot of these seem to get? lol The Aliexpress knockoffs really need to get their game together and come out with 3rd party ones soon.
Well that’s great because my controller just started forcing me to sharply look up randomly.
Does anyone know is that because of stick drift or something else?
“Quietly.”
The same news has been submitted here on two prior occasions.
Shame they didn’t quietly increase the battery life
Well, Concord wasnt cheap.
I can’t believe they didn’t make a well advertised press release to let everyone know…
is Concord responsible for this?
No one should be buying controllers without hall effect sticks. You’re literally wasting your money and falling into the consumerist trap which Sony/Microsoft is well aware of and is taking advantage of you, having to buy a controller every 5-6 months due to extreme stick drift is not normal.
Just wait until PlayStation announce a “Super Controller” coming out with the PS5 for 500 euro.
Things are so expensive nowadays you really had to increase the price of the controller too PS5 ?
Are there any good third party ps5 controllers? I’ve been wanting to get another but they’re almost 100 Canadabucks now.
Gotta make up for those Concord losses
I don’t know what goes into controller but they are way too fucking expensive for some reason, like expensive can it be ti make a controller?
Oh sweet! Will this price increase mean they are investing in fixing their stock drift issue? Which is an issue that has been fixed multiple times before by an older iteration of their own controllers?
I only had drift on one ps4 remote. So far with my ps5 I am on my 7th controller. I have to replace them every few months. Its crazy. I’m not the only one in my group with these issues either. Idc if they charge $100 as long as they last more then a year
I have, no shit, gone through 4 PS5 controllers because of stick drift. The design of the controller is excellent and feels great, but stick drift kicks in after only a few months of regular use. That’s pathetic for a controller.
Sony can suck a fat chode increasing the price but not fixing their biggest issue with the hardware.
My hope is that this is to lower the cost of the ps5 pro. But it’s not.
This is fine, I’ll just wait for those Concord controllers to hit clearance.
Holy sh*t they fixed stick drift!! Oh wait………..
So what, I already have 3 PS5 controllers.
For the fucking ridiculous prices they already charge they should be using hall effect sensors, replacing these due to stick drift is tiresome.
Bought a new one yesterday after putting it off for a month. Bullet successfully dodged.
The new price to stick drift.
That’s funny. I had a ps5 controller for about 3 weeks before it was unusable with stick drift. I’ve played with it a total of maybe 15 hours. Never had a controller with stick drift in my life. Mainly MnK I’ve barely used this one and it has it. Wouldn’t mind paying extra if it meant the quality wasn’t also dropping
2 out of the 4 controllers I’ve gotten since launch have stick drift, I’m very careful and only play games a couple of hours a week. What gives? I guess I just buy more, now with a even better price? Wtf
Access prices are fucking outrageous. $75 for a controller? It’s completely obscene. There’s not enough outrage over their price.
