If they announce that, I'm buying a PS4 at launch no matter what.

Post by: insektmute on February 18, 2013, 08:56:39 pm: If past experiences have shown us anything, it's that rumors about Sony's controllers are almost universally wrong, no matter how many times the various news sites claim to have a reliable inside source. If anything, I'm inclined to believe a lot of the reports that float around prior to a console's announcement are tossed out there by the companies themselves, in order to roughly gauge consumer interest, and I suspect that's especially true in a case like this.
