Starlight Blue engaged 🌟🐬
If you know anything about my gaming history, you know that I've been with PlayStation since the launch of the PS4. I also was lucky enough to get a launch PS5 and that means I have had 2.5 years to experience everything that it has to offer.
One of my favorite things about the PS5 is the DualSense controller. It may look like a slightly newer version of the Dualshock 4, but it is much more than that. PS5 games enable the ability to experience immersive haptics and adaptive triggers. This same tech is also in the new PSVR 2 controllers and it heightens the realism of many games. Some do it better than others, but to me, there is no denying that a game is made better with these features.
You may see the title of this post and wonder why I would have any need for a second controller. It's always just me playing, I have a charging cable that easily reaches to where I sit when I game. The only issue is I finally was starting to experience stick drift. This usually happens when dust or something else gets underneath the analog stick. The result is your character having ghost movements while you play. For me this meant that if I were trying to stand still, my player would start walking to the left without me touching anything.
I watched many videos on how to fix stick drift and it worked the first tie it happened a few months ago. This time nothing was working. I figured I might as well go ahead and get a second controller to solve the issue. I would still have my original white one to use if I were to ever have a guest who wanted to play co-op with me. I doubt that will ever happen, but you never know. Plus, I really love the Starlight Blue color. I fantasized about getting one when they first came out at the beginning of 2022, but I didn't have a true need for it then. I also decided to get a charging station since it will make charging two controllers much easier.
As you can see, the DualSense controllers are not cheap. $75 is a steep asking price, but at least the charging station was half as much. Still, $75 beats the $200 price point of the DualSense Edge Pro Contorller. I really did not have a need for an advanced controller like that and I didn't see any since on spending more than triple what I had to.
After I placed this order and was prepared to wait a week for it to arrive, I found one last solution to fix stick drift. There is a very tiny hole on the back of the controller that allows you to factory reset it. I finally found something small enough to fit inside and enable me to do this and all of a sudden the stick drift was gone. This tells me it was something to do with the software. I wasn't mad that the problem went away, quite the opposite. I guess this is the universe's way of saying that I needed to have a Starlight Blue controller in my hands.
I'll be sitting the old white DualSense aside for the most part. I'm glad it's back to working normally, but who knows if that drift will come back again ever. I will stick with the new Starlight Blue and hope that I never have any issues with it.

That's a beautiful asthetic blue!
It goes nice with the other one you have.
You do like blue ALOT don't you 🐳
At this point Blue could be my nickname.
You've only had one controller this whole time? I had to buy a second one like a week after I got my PS5. I love the controller and how it feels as you play, but these things die so fast. I had to get the extra so I would always have a full charge on one of them.
I guess I just got used to plugging in my controller to the charger that’s right next to me and just dealing with it not being wireless temporarily. Happy to have a second though. Especially that blue 🤤
baby blue being my favorite color this is fcking beautiful m8!!
Too bad I can't stare at it when I use it. At least it looks pretty sitting on the charger.
Really liking the colors of the DualSense. I need to get myself an extra one soon and I'll definitely be going for the Cosmid Red. That thing is so sexy!
All of the color options they have look amazing. I'm not falling for the matching covers for the actual console though.
Man!! This looks amazing the blue is my favorite color 🙏🏻🙏🏻 now you can die in peace playing Diablo ahahah. Have you tried the beta ? 🙏🏻
I haven't tried the beta. Never been super into dungeon crawlers, but I have played a few here in there for a bit. From the videos it looks to be the best iteration of Diablo ever.
Hope you are very happy to buy your favorite item and have a great playing experience with it.
It's great so far. I'm mostly just happy to no longer have to deal with my controller doing things that I didn't command of it.
I have PS 4, PS 5 itself and its controller are so expensive for now, I hope I will be able to buy in the future.
Good luck!
The PS5 suite is very pricey still. I can't even fathom dropping more money on the PSVR 2 right now, no matter how curious I am to try it.
This looks stylish and cool controller. Don't forget to share your experience playing with this beast.
The controller feels just as great to use as my original. However it looks so much cooler now.
That one looks so good! ❤👍 I love color blue 👌 I’d love to see a darker blue eventually.
I'm sure you can get a custom controller made in any color that you want. I'm just not spending several hundred dollars to do that.
I am very fond of playing Tekken 3 since my childhood and I have played it a lot, you too my friend and I must play it also I like football game more. The boring time that a person spends on playing games is very well spent.
Ahhhhhhhh, the dreaded stick shift! (wait, i thought u drive auto only?)
anyway, blue is better! :P enjoy the new controller..
I couldn't keep my hand off my stick.
😄😉
The PS5 controller looks pretty cool. I am glad they the white one get fixed. Happy gaming man with two of them.
My other one last med over 2 years, so I'm not too upset. I mean it still works as a second controller, it just has a minor issue that was annoying me.
Yeah if our favourite thing have a little issue, it ofcourse annoyed us. Never can feel good untill it gets fixed. The same happens to also.
It feels so good when you are just getting a new item
I hope you enjoy it
I am thankful every single time that I get something new.
Congrats for this, hope you also get good experience from it😊😊
Thank you. So far so good.
