I find it curious that Sony is pushing the controller so hard.

I don't recall anything being pushed this hard since the Wii Mote and Kinect.

Here's to hoping there's an OS-level accessibility override for the trigger-strength stuff for those of us that fatigue easily with shoulder buttons.

Is it possible to use the normal controller that came with the PS4 or do you have to have this one?

Seems possible since PS4 games are going to be playable on PS5, but only for those games I'm sure.

Refresh my memory, PS1 controllers could be used on PS2 right?

[Cantih]

Yes, have one plugged into my PS2 right now due to PS2 controller giving up the ghost after a decade of FFXI.
The only trouble comes from the analog buttons being a PS2 (and PS3) controller thing, but not many games used that feature by the end.

The previous gen controller working has often been a thing for Sony, but the new controllers usually have a function that relates to the gameplay and its annoying to not have it when the system already comes with a controller

Those games usually suck tho so maybe its not a big deal. Motion controls and that dragon flying game come to mind on...ps3 I think it was?

We also had the weirdness of DualShock 4 eventually becoming wireless compatible with the PS3, although you couldn't open the XMB with it. I don't see anything about DualSense that's mentioned so far that wouldn't say it couldn't be the same case with working on PS4 as well (if Sony bothers to add support for it on the OS end of things) since it has everyone the DualShock 4 does, minus a pronounced lightbar on its top, which sub-1% of the games even used for gameplay purposes anyways. Granted this all assumes the PS4/PS5 use the same bluetooth setup for receiving devices.

Watch one of them catch fire inside one of those suffocating plastic boxes.

"website that shall not be named" reached out to a PS rep who said its not PS5 related. Could be a dodge to not spoil things, but who knows.
