I’m upgrading from an older GTX 1080 rig that is honestly still usable, but there have been a few newer titles here and there that I’ve been putting off playing.

What are some beautiful and demanding hardware wise games you guys would recommend? Bonus points for underrated games or hidden gems.

    I’m sure it feels awesome with a Dualsense, I’ve heard a lot about the adaptivr triggers on this game. I’ve played it with an 8bitdo controller and the game was still pretty fun, the controls felt nice regardless.

      The controls are great with other controllers! I can’t even explain how different it is with a Dualsense though. I don’t even have a PS5, but I really liked the controller. Until I played Returnal… Now I LOVE it. The triggers are really awesome, but the haptics were so much more than I expected—they’re so much more than just simple rumble.

      Even the speaker was awesome to have. Chirping satisfyingly when I timed a reload correctly, making strange noises when I picked up a Parasite, and doing a Ether noise when I picked up Ether.

      Between regular controllers, KBM, and a Dualsense, the Dualsense legitimately changes the experience so significantly, I wouldn’t recommend it without one. I convinced my friend to pick one up before trying Returnal, and I knew he started with it when I got a text that just said

      “holy shit”
