    I’m not sure what you are referring to here. The Dual Shock 2 was the standard PS2 controller throughout its lifetime.

    Do you mean the OG PlayStation, which had the standard controller, then the dual analogue stick, and finally the Dual Shock with the two analogue sticks plus rumble?

    I liked the analogue sticks, loved Katamari. Rumble didn’t add enough.

      I like the sticks and rumble. By extra stuff I meant like haptic triggers and stuff like that in the newest controllers.

      The old standard Playstation controller. With sticks and rumble.

      I own a Series S. And I’ve been looking for a PS pattern Xbox controller forever. But I’ve never found one.

        Oh gotcha. You mean before it went Dual Shock 3? Sorry I thought you were referring to the multiple iterations the PS1 had.

        Advantage over Dual Shock 2 was that it was wireless, and I do appreciate that, but I completely agree that PlayStation layout is great.

        I do like the Dual Shock 4 when on the computer, as the little touchpad on the front helps with SteamOS when dealing with shitty interfaces for 3rd Party Launchers that demand a mouse and keyboard.

        If I didn’t encounter them occasionally then Dual Shock 3 all the way as I dont normally need any of the other “features”.

        Does the Series S support USB controllers? Could you not use one of those knock off USB PS controllers?
