      These are all just adorable. I'd love to get my hands on some of those controllers, they look uncomfortable as hell. Like even when making a goofy mock-up you'd have to take a look back and say to yourself that it looks too stupid

        I remember pictures of the boomerang PlayStation controller making the rounds back when everyone was speculating about this stuff, imagine the carpel tunnel you could get from that bad boy

          The dull silver-y plastic really has that early 2000s feel that makes it look more like a PS2 or PS3 prediction

            I miss matte plastic, shiny shit getting fingerprints all over it makes me irrationally annoyed

        The PlayStation controller in the thumbnail is real and was actually the planned PS3 controller before they came to their senses.

        The PS3 was also originally not going to have a traditional GPU, but an extra cell processor to do the graphics output instead.

          Can't believe that thing was real at some point :stalin-stressed:

          I'm sure even more cell nonsense would've made the PS3 even more pleasant to port for than it already was :data-laughing:

            Imagine making games for a console with no traditional GPU lmao, I think the developers would have just quit at that point

            The cell processor did allow for technical feats like the last of us, uncharted 2 and 3, god of war and gran Turismo 5 and 6, but at the cost of every third party game from 2006-2010 running like ass.
