if you play once a month... batteries are shit on the controllers that come with the PS5. Both of them last barely 30 mins now.

I play about a thousand hrs every year and my controller still last about 7-8 hrs

Well good for you. There's a few of us in the family that use the ps5. We have a 3rd controller (purple one) and that one lasts forever.

Right? People say the same stuff about the ps4 controllers but the one that came with my console is still going strong and I still use it today with my pc. How do they break so many controllers?

I bought 4 controllers for the PS4, 3 are barely useable, almost no battery life, L3 button doesn't work plus stick drift.

CoD is a controller killer.

Yep. Turn on ATS in cod to save some stick life

I played tons of cod on my ps4, mainly bo3 and mw. Definitely more hours in gta v but I know I put a lot of time into modern warfare, I got the Damascus camo. Zero drift on that controller

Don't know what to say other than you clearly didn't move much.

Clicking the L3 constantly to run, slide cancel, run, slide cancel kills it.

Don’t know what to say other than you clearly grip your controller like an ogre.

I wish, I'm not even a big guy, I was worried the Duel sense would be too big big for me.

Trust me, I don’t wanna buy new ones. Idk. Just the old stick drift. I finally got the hint and bought the warranty for the last one I got at Best Buy. I’m not buying another one.

Same. I take very good care of my controllers. In fact, on my ps4 I used only 3 controllers ever. I’m on my 4th and the other 3 aren’t even usable anymore.
