I hate the touchpad on the PS4.

I was playing Gravity Rush 2 and I found that half the time the damn thing didn't work. At least not quickly.

Thank God the forms that game introduced were useless so it hardly mattered.

I can't for the life of me understand what that touch pad adds to the previously excellent PS2 controller (My fave controller)

Removing Start, turning Select into Share an then adding the stupid touch pad in the middle just made the controller worse.

And that's not nostaglia. I grew up with Sega-Master System and Genesis Controllers. The PS2 Controller is just the best one.

Yeah the touch pad has always felt pointless, and I never understood the need to dedicate the select button to sharing either because it seems like only a very few people ever use that feature, and it's mostly just those career streamers you see on sites like Twitch.

It's right up there with the light on the back of the controller that you can never turn off which drains the battery life. It's pretty stupid.
