Okay, that’s just funny
… the first few times, but then after that…
How often are you dropping your controller?
deleted by creator
i’m more clumsy than i’d care to admit. also i have cats. and once i sneezed and knocked over an entire row of schooldesks without touching them. and i have cats. probably four or five times a session if i’m using that controller?
Maybe it will help remind you not to throw your controller around!
Surely there would be a way to disable it altogether
Supposedly it only does it every 5-6 times.
I legit hate the trend of sound designers sneaking that into media. It immediately pulls me out of the story.
It’s not a trend, it’s a long-standing tradition spanning decades. It’s hilarious.
It was fine the first thirty years but now it’s no longer a fun Easter egg. So many sound engineers don’t think one bit about where they’re putting it like in the middle of emotional climax scenes where people are getting bloodied in the face of a nigh impossible uphill battle and stuff.
IDK, that scenario still sounds funny to me
Sure if it was an action comedy, but that doesn’t belong in a drama
Why would you drop your controller like that in the middle of a game? Unless you play eternal darkness I guess, the only game I have ever thrown away my controller…
I bet this guys fun at parties
“Hey Steam support uh… I was triggering the easter egg and my controller broke. Hm? Where did I drop it? From the roof.”
Also: Will it also scream if shot by a gun? 🤔
Why does a controller have a speaker in it?
It doesn’t. The haptic motors which provide vibration and tactile feedback can be used to produce sound.
Plenty of controllers do. They can be used for multiplayer in place of a headset. Some games will also use them for non-world audio, like an audio log or a mission update. You can also use them in conjunction with haptics for communicating menu interaction. A different timbre of click for allowed vs disallowed, for example.
For Wii emulation obviously
The playstation controllers have a speaker. A lot of games use them for interesting things. Like in some games where you can find voice recorders, the recording will play through the controller as if your holding it.
Dying Light did that on the PS4, pretty neat!
it’s neat having the bowstrings ftht from the controller
Read in a game review that used a PS (?) controller speaker for radio messages that this worked great for immersion
I tried to read it but the Adblock pop up prevented me
I don’t see any popup with ublock origin. Anyway, inside the description, I linked the OG youtube video referenced in the article.
Your adblock is from Temu, get uBlock Origin its the original
It took me a few times dropping it onto the couch to get it to trigger, now I’m wondering what other Easter eggs are in here
