The set of Eneloops i bought in 2014 still last longer than any Playstation controller I've ever owned Like yeah the charging time is also much longer but I just charge them overnight so that's a complete non-issue

Samurai Sanders posted:Yeah those are good. I have a DT 990 but the resistance is too high to use with the controller headphone jack. That’s what I use at my desk. I also use the DT990s but they work fine through my PS5 controller? Perhaps a little low powered, maybe. I’d love to get a nice small dac/amp but right now I can’t really justify even spending £100 on one

The controller itself has good audio levels with 250 ohm DT 770's since it seems to be amped.

I’ve been using the TuMadre Stonks discord to look for these because it worked for my 3080, is there anything better? I want a digital version and don’t need any kind of bundles but I don’t want to indulge a scalper. Are brick and mortar stores complete wastes of time? I just wanna play Spider-Man and DS

Tgent posted:I'm sure it's faster just not as much as I'm used to after spiderman and demons souls I guess. Native ps5 games use kraken decompression to dramatically reduce load times. Ps4 games are not compressed this way so they gain no benefit outside of ssd and better cpu

I never had an SSD in my PS4 so the loading times on PS5 are like night and day. But it's not really noticeably different than playing on PC.

Can someone please outbid me on this? I decided to just buy one for $50 so that it would ship faster. Just bid more than $44 so I don't win please. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Demons-Souls-PS5-NEW-SEALED-/284139888348?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 I'm surprised these are dropping in price so much already. Got the new spiderman for $37 too.

You're going to win so much that you’re going to be sick and tired. You’re going to say, ‘Please, please, Mr. eBay, I'm sick and tired of winning. Please let me have at least one loss. It’s no longer exciting to win.’ And we're going to say, ‘No way, you're going to keep winning, and we don’t care if you like it or not.’

I heard the PS5 controller is much harder to open up though. They put screws under the trigger so you have to get the trigger off before you can open it fully without breaking it. Not sure if thats needed for a battery swap tho

I heard the PS5 controller is much harder to open up though. Here's the teardown video I (think I) posted way earlier in the thread. It's got some interesting hardware, but it does look like a bitch to take apart. I was interested in customizing my controller before I watched that and now I think I'll just replace my controllers when they have new colors available. Screw trying to paint/hydrodip that thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eD7KKf9rbiY

Yeah being able to use my own rechargable AAs with the 360 pad was much better than the DS4's ridiculously tiny battery. I got 30-40 hours per charge with those things, compared to maybe 8 hours on DS4.

Agreed but the Xbox pad has one thing going for it, it works without any batteries at all when plugged in like a regular wired controller would. Every other battery powered piece of crap I've owned whose battery died just plainly wouldn't function at all anymore, plugged in or not.

Otherwise it just sounds like a semi-permanent gaming tax.

I finally solved a problem with my PS5 that's been bugging me since I got it. I figured I'll pass this along since it might help out someone else. The headset I've been using with my PS4 and PS5 uses a USB dongle AND an optical cable going to the optical port on the PS4. This would allow you to adjust the game volume and chat volume separately, which is a feature I fuckin love. The PS5 has no optical port so I couldn't get it to work, until now. It was a solution so easy I wanted to kick myself Here's how: Connect the optical cable from the USB dongle (or base unit depending on what sorta headset you have) to your TV's optical port. Then make sure your TV is set to output to the optical cable. This makes sure that the PS5 pipes the audio to the TV and then to the headset. On your PS5 go to Settings > Sound > Audio Output and change ‘Output to Headphones’ to ‘Chat Audio’. And there you go.

Are there any plans to release Spider-man Remastered as a stand-alone title at some point? I want to get Miles Morales but I don't think I want the deluxe version since I'm not sure I'll be re-playing Spider-man anytime soon.
