How do you like the PowerA charger? It is the only one that looks decent that is in the US. I really wish Sony would have released theirs over here (it is out in EU already wtf?). I'm close to just getting it on ebay for like $45. The only thing I don't really like about the PowerA from looking at the picture is the base seems a bit large.
What I wanted was a sturdy charging station that I can easily plop a controller into. The only weird aspect of it is that there's a weird sort of push-based docking aspect. It's sort of like a push-based toggle switch as you push the controller down and it docks in place and starts charging. It isn't hard, but it's odd compared to the PS3 charger where you just kind of put the controller in. I also don't think it's too big.
Here's the
charging station with both of my controllers.
Here's the
charging station with one of them removed, which shows the weird clicking thing.
One nice thing is that Walmart was selling this for only $20!
your thumbs can still easily touch in a game like resogun or anything that uses both at the same time.
I've played a lot of Super Stardust HD on the PS3 and Resogun on the PS4, and I haven't ever had my fingers touch. However, I have had some rather bad wear on my hands after playing both of those games for a while. Although, I think the DualShock 3 would hurt my hands more after playing for a while.
x1 controller is virtually identical to the 360 one. i feel the face buttons may be a tad bigger. the dpad is better, but it still is awful. analogs feel similar to me though.
Yeah, I'm not too sure what I think about the X1 controller. It's
not bad, but it doesn't come across as great. Although, I don't own any fighters (or rather, the only fighter: Injustice) on the PS4, so I can't test it.
