  • That’s better, although I would probably wait for $130-140.

    Yeah, I’m not using the paddles for anything fancy, simply face buttons or R1/L1 / R3/L3 for most games, so your modded DualSense sounds like a nice solution for that. I’m not sure you would get much more with a DS Edge tbh, unless you’re really interested in making trigger adjustments or joysticks replacements (which is certainly a nice-to-have, but also a missed opportunity as they could have gone with hall effect ones…).


  • I don’t have any experience with using the Edge on the Deck since I only play it in handheld mode, but I’ve been using it almost exclusively for about 10 months on PS5 and I really couldn’t go back to a regular DualSense, the backpaddles are too nice to get rid off now. The trigger adjustment is also pretty neat, although I don’t play competitive shooters so I’m not really part of the “target demographic”.

    That being said, I wouldn’t have bought it at MSRP and I still don’t think it’s worth $200 USD (I got it on amazon warehouse deals for 40% off and it was basically brand new, if you can get it this way or otherwise slightly used elsewhere I’d recommend that instead).





  • Tough one. I care a lot about game preservation, so I naturally tend to gravitate towards GOG, however I’ve had trouble getting a few too many games running, while the Steam versions “just work” (with the same version of Proton, etc).
    I really tend to make sure that I’m not going to have any issues with the GOG version before buying it nowadays, otherwise I’ll get the Steam version.
