    My question is, are these wired only or are the wires shown optional??

    I can't answer your question with 100 percent certainty but I would think they would have bluetooth support along with the USB-wired connectivity.


    I read somewhere else that they're both wired. Not 100% positive and I don't remember the site. The cable is detachable so that you can store them, but I think it's required otherwise. Not completely positive though.

      Ok, well if that's the case I cannot buy as I have two dogs and a cat that would, in a dark room, cause total chaos with a wire running to my PS4...yeah..not happening.

      I wish one of these were wireless and that it'd be out by Christmas because damn, that'd be a PERFECT Christmas gift from the wife!!

        Ah, I see.

        I guess that falls in line with them being designed for e-sports and going for the best response time possible?

          They are not even made by Sony and are wired only. Sony should make their own damm controller like MS did and be done with it.

          This is a money grab and making them only wired is a no go but that is because they are designed for the E Sports player not the casual

            If they both, or at least one of them, end up being awesome controllers it won't really matter who makes them. If they both suck, then that will be disappointing.

              If Sony made it then you know it will be awesome just like MS did with the Elite...They will be more money but in end they know best of how to make a controller that fits their console.

              And being wired means this is a NO GO....Sony already said they wont do an Elite controller type which sucks

                    Sony making it doesn't mean anything, they made the DS3 and I hated it. If they made one, they may not even offset the sticks.

                    It makes no difference in this case who makes the product, the only thing that matters is the product.

                      Come on, man. That's just ridiculous. First party companies aren't the only ones that can make good products. Third party products also aren't the only ones that can have issues. That argument just sounds like fanboy speak. Headsets? Charging stations? Thumb sticks? Quite a few of those are better than their equivalent first party offerings.

                        I was more referring to controllers. I never had a controller from a third party company that I felt was better then what I got from Sony or MS...

                        Headets, thumbsticks and etc etc are different story

                          I thought the PS3 Tournament controller was better than the DS3. It was wired, but I liked the setup a lot more.

                            I agree they came out under powered, but I also understand they didn't want to come out with a $600 console like the PS3 when it first launched and scare consumers off. A friend is buying my PS4 for $200 and since I already have a 4K HDR tv it was a no brainer for me to get the pro. I'm not a pc gamer since I been there and done that and I prefer consoles. Still upset that Sony didn't include a 4K blu-ray drive which made no sense for us. Like you I'm also picking up a Scorpio.

                              That controller at the bottom is a straight up Xbox imitation. Sorry but that's way too obvious. I always preferred the Xbox controller over Sony's DS4.

                                As much as I hated the PS3 controller I never held one that I felt was better except an XBOX controller. Those tournament controllers are wired which to me is a no go.

                                If Sony made their own special controller it will trump all third party attempts and that I am confident in.

                                But anything wired is no go for casual gamers....
