PS5 controller defect lawsuit

[Jazzy]

"The class action suit alleges that the DualSense controllers, which were released in November along with the new PS5 console, suffer from a defect known as "drift," wherein characters or other elements on screen move without the user manipulating the controller's joystick.

"This defect significantly interferes with gameplay and thus compromises the DualSense Controller's core functionality," the complaint says."

I don't think you should purchase a new console in the first 6 months. Wait until you see the defects and if they are big enough, wait a year.

Your thoughts?

The one thing they shouldn't have copied from Nintendo seriously though, I hope it gets fixed before I get one.

Remember the days when drift meant you were nudging the stick when you turned it on because it automatically zeroed the stick upon power-up?

I'm not surprised. I'm honestly not thrilled about the new PlayStation at all. I may just wait until they come out with something better.

I honestly never heard of that one before.
